Hi Jeff,

It's possible that you have the settings for the paths wrong in the General Settings after moving servers.

To have the upload directory in the root folder (yoursite.com/uploads) the settings should be:

Upload Directory: ../uploads/
Upload Folder URL: /uploads/

Also, check to make sure that your Website Root Directory is correct (there will be an error message at the top of the screen in CMSB if there is a problem with this setting).

Let me know if this helps,

Tom

Hi Tom-

Well, I'm using a temp URL for now... (everything except these images are working)...

Changing to what you suggest doesn't seem to help. Maybe I'm not doing correctly...

I can PM you with test URL to see...?

Thanks much!

Hi Jeff,

I've had a look and figured out the problem - your absolute (Upload Directory) and relative (Upload Folder URL) settings weren't quite right.

I've changed them to the appropriate paths.

Hope this helps,

Tom

Cool - thank you! Just noticed that.
Now - is this because I'm using the temp URL?

Once I change it over to the actual domain name - those paths could change (not needed, but could be changed to / and ../uploads, right)?

Thanks a ton!

Hi Jeff,

That's correct - the paths have to be set per the domain, so if you move the site over to it's own domain the paths would then be

../cmsAdmin/uploads/

and

/cmsAdmin/uploads

respectively (if you want the uploads folder to stay inside the cmsAdmin folder).
