  Image not visable on contents pages

  Image not visable on contents pages
  
  When accessing file manager from the Edit Content page and I click on the filename text link of an image I get:-
  
  "Forbidden
  
  You don't have permission to access /ATutor/content/1/images/meat_pie.jpg on this server.
  
  Apache/2.4.9 (Unix) Server at www.patmarshall.co.uk Port 80"
  
  Clicking on insert just inserts a place-holder on the contents page.
  Preview only shows a place-holder
  
  If I go to the photo gallery, display an image, copy the image URL and then edit the image on the contents page pasting the URL, I do see an image on the contents page.
  
  Windows Vista - Chrome - Firefox
  Apache 2.4.9
  PHP 5.3
  MySql 5.5.35

  Re: Image not visable on contents pages

  This sounds like the permissions on the content directory are not set to be writable by the Web server, generally set during installation. You can set the content/ directory to be writable.
  
  chmod -R 777 /ATutor/content
  
  You probably also want to change the owner of the file inside the content directory to be owned by the user that owns Apache for security reasons.

  Re: Image not visable on contents pages

  Fixed
  Not only does the content folder need to be 777 but also the course (1 in this case) and any created folder "images" in this case. I did not have Execute enabled just read and write. CHMOD 777 for all the sub folders and it works.
  
  Did not understand the "owner" bit. I pay for hosting it is not mine.
  Thanks
