Odd media manager problem

Posted 17 years 7 months ago
- Hello all..
  
  I have suddenly gotten a problem on one of my sites and I have no clue why this happens.
  
  In media manager I can't see any thumbnails of uploaded images in no folders at all. Instead of the thumbnail there is only a filename and filesize mentioned (in IE it's the red cross that is present).
  
  If I click on the holder that normaly would have the thumbnail located a pop-up shows as normal but not with the image only with a note saying "No input file specified." (In IE I get a 404).
  
  The images are there, but they shure don't work like they should.
  
  Any ideas?
  
  Thanks in advance.

- Hi Thomas that does sound pretty weird.
  
  Just a few guesses:
  Install anything new lately ie: component/bot/mod ? javascript conflict? maybe something new using overlib?
  server software get changed on you?
- Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

  I have been wondering about that too.. I simply can't remember if I did try some SEO url component or if I didnt... as it seems like it behaves like that when such components doesnt work.
  
  I have no idea about the server, but ill have a look - never seen this on Joomloa before

- Hhmmm didn't find anything
  
  Are there any core files I could try and upload/overwrite that would not ruin the install but perhaps restore some stuff to default?
  Anyone got any hints?

- Check under global config what the perm settings are when you import a new file. SHould be set to rewrite all files to 644 for maximum usage. USe JoomlaXplorer to get around folders/files not being assigned to an owner since FTP cannot reassign these values.

- Thanks, but this is not a permission problem at all.

- Sorry to bump this baby, but I am really lost on this one....
  Any other suggestions would be nice.
  
  Thanks in advance
  
  I am curious if there are some core files that i could try and re-load or perhaps a way to install over the current install without losing content and other important stuff.

- Thomas, everyone of the sites that I manage have that same problem. There's different versions of joomla, some with Community Builder, some without - many different combinations. They all do it.
  
  I'm beginning to think that it's my machine.
  
  I gave up trying to fix it and you have been the only one that I know of that has the same problem.I've not found anyone in the various forums that has seen the issue. Now, I just FTP image files.
