Not Writeable. Directory chmod as 777.

charleyhankins 01 Apr, 2013
Hi! I have a ChronoForms installation on a Joomla 1.5 site. It was working fine last year. Now it is giving me the following error:

JFolder::create: Could not create directory
Couldn't create upload directroy 1
JFolder::create: Could not create directory
Couldn't create upload directory 2
JFolder::create: Could not create directory
Warning! - Failed to move file.

I have my permissions on the folder set to 777. But, when I go into the "file uploads" section of the form manager, the text to the right of the "full upload path" box displays "Not Writeable".

The directory is set to 777.

Hi! thanks for the reply.

Yes, I have seen that. The folder is chmod to 777 and FTP is off.

thanks,

Hi charleyhankins,

It has to be a permissions problem: could be that the Joomla! User (the server user) has a different permissions set? I can only suggest that you check with your web host provider.
