this is because I had to disable Organize my uploads into month- and year-based folders in media section
are you going to fix the issue with open_basedir? because I've found lots of topics, mostly unanswered about this error.

[Deathiel]

solved the error by replacing the function get_document_root ($src) in thumb.php with

CODE

function resolveDocumentRoot() {
$current_script = dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
$current_path = dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']);

/* work out how many folders we are away from document_root
by working out how many folders deep we are from the url.
this isn't fool proof */
$adjust = explode("/", $current_script);
$adjust = count($adjust)-1;

/* move up the path with ../ */
$traverse = str_repeat("../", $adjust);
$adjusted_path = sprintf("%s/%s", $current_path, $traverse);

/* real path expands the ../'s to the correct folder names */
return realpath($adjusted_path);
}

I was wondering how many of you do Wordpress website development on a locally? I always do development locally before I launch it on a live server. I use the WAMP server.

Upload slowly,and the .tk DNS error.

Okay i'm using the latest version and i'm pretty sure i'm doing everything right but i get this error:

CODE

Error establishing a database connection

This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can't contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host's database server is down.

Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
Are you sure that the database server is running?
If you're unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host. If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums.

Try Again

I set the database name as the correct database name
username as the correct username
password as the correct password
host as localhost (because in control panel it says the mysql host is "localhost")

i even tried to make the manual database connection wp-config.php and i got the same error.

whats wrong?


edit: fixed. i just deleted the user and created like 3 more and it finally worked. that was weird

Aside from ftp you can used another method by using and log in to your C panel. Just locate the file or folder you want to place your file just browse and save it on the folder you wish to save.

[hipop]

good job ！
I have solved my problem based on your suggestions.
However, I am still worried about the permissions problem.
I am worried that the 777 is unsafe.

Hi frinds,

Fixing the WordPress Upload by DroNix

1. Create a folder called uploads - it doesn't have to have that name but for sake of simplicity - inside of wp-content. If there isn't such folder (uploads) just create it.
2. Set the folders permission to 777.
3. Go to you wordpress dashboard, Settings>Miscellanous.
4. Enter wp-content/uploads for the Store uploads in this folder field.

You should now be able to upload files. I've just went through the steps myself and it works just fine.

I wonder if someone is able to help me out - I have followed this method above of changing the directory that the photographs get uploaded to but I am still presented with the following error message:

Warning: file_exists() [function.file-exists]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp//Quad1.tmp) is not within the allowed path(s): (VIRTUAL_DOCUMENT_ROOT) in /www/zzl.org/a/i/w/aiweb20/htdocs/wp-includes/functions.php on line 2340

Warning: touch() [function.touch]: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 696795 is not allowed to access /tmp owned by uid 0 in /www/zzl.org/a/i/w/aiweb20/htdocs/wp-admin/includes/file.php on line 177
Dismiss “Quad1.jpg” has failed to upload due to an error
The uploaded file could not be moved to /www/zzl.org/a/i/w/aiweb20/htdocs/wp-content/content.

I think it is because I don't have access to the /tmp directory.

If someone is able to help me with a work around or how to turn safemode off on my account, I would be most grateful.

New to the whole WordPress scene, trying to teach myself. Downloaded and extracted all the files in the newest Wordpress download. Uploaded directory in a new folder called wordpress in my main directory and uploaded all the files from the download to that folder. When I try to open the index.php I get this error:

What's my next move? Thanks guys.

EDIT:: Never mind, completely didn't read instructions haha. If I get any arising problems, I'll make sure to come back here.

Okay, this tutorial is nice, but skips multiple steps...I finally got it working though, now the next question is: How do I migrate my blog entries from wordpress to my new blog if plugins are disabled and no that is not asking plugins to be enabled, but rather what is the work around to migrating the actual entries. Thanks.

Hi

I already upload my wordpress folder using FTP client. Now, I´m trying to open my web page "http://carlosevargas.clanteam.com" but then this message appear:

"The address you have entered is not open to the public. Here are some sponsored websites you may be interested in:"


What should I do?? I must recognise that this is my first time doing something like that, so I´ll appreciate any advice which use terms that any mortal could understand.

Thanks so much!!

I have the same issue. Someone, please help...

EDIT:

My SOLUTION is creating a new folder called tmp inside wp-content and then adding the following line to wp-config.php:
define('WP_TEMP_DIR', '/www/zymichost.com/x/x/x/xxx/htdocs/wp-content/tmp');
where the path to the newly created tmp folder is taken from your control panel.
I have set the permissions for wp-content/tmp and wp-content/uploads to 775.

I searched this forum to no avail. Hope this helps someone until a better solution.

Thank you nice post

>> Type in your username and password and log in.

when i tried this it wouldn't let me login. i could tell it was trying to go to the incorrect url, it was adding an extra '/' into it.

it is installed correctly since i can see the WP default version (http://solvecraftproduce.com/cms) but if i try to go to go to the admin page to log in @ http://solvecraftproduce.com/cms/wp-admin i get a blank page. When i view src i can see there is a frameset on the page that is trying to display http://solvecraftproduce.com//cms/wp-admin (note extra '/' after '.com') instead, the URL in the browser still shows the proper address without the extra '/'.... I'm not sure where the frameset is coming from or where the the extra '/' is coming from within it.

can anyone help me try to fix this?
