Image manager problem

Does anyone have a fix that works, or at least a by-pass? My Image Manger is now useless.

It can't be a host issue, as so many users are expressing the exact same problem - there may be dozens (if not more) different hosts who would all have to be making the identical change to hosted accounts for so many people to have the same problem.

You can try my solution here: http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php?f=121&t=29748
If this doesn't work either, you probably have an issue with your host or your installation.

its a permissions problem. every time i have gone to someone's site to fix this problem i have found that its a permissions issure. read your install instructions to what directory need changing.

this has been fixed for many people by just checking there image directories permission. also try deleting all your cached images.

sometime u need to reset owner of your image / cache Directory.

Hi Daniel and amdev,

Thanks for the replies.

Daniel, I have set all permissions associated with all my products to 777. The host doesn't like this per se, but has left them alone. Everything in each product folder (including .DS_Store) is permissioned at 777 - not solving the problem. Image Manager does pop up, but no products show in the left side image folder hierarchy. When I click Upload, I see the pdf's in my desktop folder, but the gray action gear simply spins - no upload. All the images are visible in CPanel and my FTP client.

amdev - could you elaborate a little more as to how I go about that?

Again, I very much appreciate the exchanges.

goto image/cache/data and all of child directory set permission to 777.

image/
image/data
image/cache
image/cache/data

all 4 of those folders need to be 777

And I have the same problem-(Image manager)!Reinstalled several times different versions opencart.Follow the instructions exactly,but results is the same not working Image manager.Нice platform but that they can to upload photos opencart=is nothing!

Just ran into the same thing (and overlooked this thread at first). After seeing this, I'm one of the ones who had the Image Manager corrupting PNG uploads. Once I removed the corrupted PNG files, the issue disappeared.

So the question would be: Why is image manager corrupting PNG files?

I had the same problem.

Solution was changing PHP5 support mode from Apache module to CGI application and file ownership reset request to the hosting company.

Cheers!

question is why is php corrupting png files. it could be that the execution time to convert the image was too short and the writing process did not get finished.

sounds like your host is adding hidden tracking scripts.

What a silly statement. It doesn't work on my servers either and these sites are hosted my dedicated servers. With this many people complaining about images not showing up, perhaps whoever wrote that portion of the cart might want to go back and rethink it. Its a huge waste of time and will make people not want to use the application.

Has anyone found a sound, consistent solution to this issue?

trust me. every time i have gone to someones site to investigate the issue its there fault.

try removing all the cache image files. sometimes the pngs are corrupt.

what about making sure the permissions are correct on the folders and the web users on the servers have the correct permssions.

Add me to the list of people who are missing images. Not all images, just most of them. I've checked all the folder permissions, and changed the image folders to 777 and no difference.

Weird. I've renamed the data directory to data_old, I created a new directory data.

I go the image browser in the admin area, and after a while it does it's thing. It still isn't displaying most of the images. Whole folders are just empty in the image browser, including the root image folder.

Checking via FTP shows me hundreds of images have been created in the cached, including the root images, and all the subfolders which have images, are being created in the cache.

So the image browser is definitely creating the images, but they just aren't appearing in the image browser.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Chris
