The uploaded file could not be moved to . Image Upload :(

  • All of a sudden, I am getting the following error when trying to upload an image to a post

    “The uploaded file could not be moved to”

    I have checked my permission of

    /wp-content/uploads/2006/08/ and they are all set to 777.

    I read in another post, that I should check where images are getting uploaded to, under MISC…Options, however there are only 2 options there:

    Miscellaneous Options
    Track Links’ Update Times

    Use legacy my-hacks.php file support

    Can anyone help?

  • Post a link? Version of WP? Linux or Windows server?

    Hi,

    It linux, wordpress 2.0, a URL: https://www.mybingoblog.com

    If WP created the directory structure (and not you with cpanel or ftp) then permissions are likely not an issue.

    I am concerned about your lack of a “Uploading” area and
    “Store uploads in this folder:” entry area in Options:Misc.

    Are you logged in as admin?

    Hi,

    WP did create the folders, so you are right about permissions.

    I did install a mod for uploading, if used alone, images do upload, but I think the issue is that under Options —> Miscellaneous , there is only two settings there.

    Should I maybe upgrade the blog to a newer version OR could the file that gives options in the Miscellaneous menu be corrupt ?

    I really can’t afford to loose the date, I am going to make a backup…

    Please advise.

    I can create you an admin user, but I would need to do it securely.

    I did install a mod for uploading

    What mod is that? ImageManager?

    I was asking if you’re logged in as admin only to rule out user/role issues.

    Hi,

    All of a sudden files are getting uploaded, very weird. Could of been a hitch at the hosting company?

    What should I do wrto the lack of options in options-misc menu?

    I read in another post, someone could not see it due to a browser pop up issue, which I doubt is the case. I should probably upgrade?

    Yes, upgrade. If nothing else then for security reasons…
