Chmod settings for images..

Hi to all there are a few specific threads here on and about this and I have already looked. Plus had a load of help from Smithy

So here goes, since this morning when I add new products to my shop it does not show the images. I have to follow through the procedure and freom time to time go into the immge directory and change the settings to 755 as they are only 600. Then I have to go to the cache folder and change all the generated images to 755 also.

Yesterday it was all working fine, I did try the FB like code but it did not work and I reverted all working OK and I dii upload a badly named file which I have since deleted...

So is there a setting in my DB I can change so it uses the correct permissions??

Cheers

My hoster is looking into this, I might just do a full reinstall, but if it happened again after inserting all my products I would be a bit peeved, would prefer to know what is happening. New manufacturer folder is set to 0700 and files within 0600 just to be clear....

Well getting bored waiting for my host company to reply I created a directory myself within the cp panel... 771 was the chmod so why is opencart making them 700.... Are we sure its server side or maybe a problem within opencart that I have created.....

OK Host people replied, I agree with them, when I create a folder and upload a file with ftp the chmod settings are correct. So have I done something within the htaccess file or the file needed to get the fb like button working that has changed the way images are uploaded through opencart?

I reckon it's an open cart problem created by me, when I tried to make the FB code work... I deleted all that code since. Any ideas before I delete and start again, not one so far... Are you all flumoxed.... Cheers again to Smithy...

Reinstalled all working.... So we will never know what it was, and do we care....... only if it happens again.
