Upload Errors
http://i397.photobucket.com/albums/pp53/onestash/wii2-1.jpg:
Upload failed due to failure writing temporary file.
---------------------------

I got this error. Can someone please help ? I know it has to do with setting a folder writable? However I do not know which folder should I set as writable?

I "duplicated" this site from another VB website (although I have 2 valid licenses) and currently Im trying to get a mod (frontpage slideshow) to work. Can someone please help?Thanks.

I got the above error when I tried to upload a picture from my computer instead of uploading from photobucket.

chmod /tmp in your public_html folder to 777

Yes I know... but this was what happened when i tried to upload pictures after i chmod to 777

Click the link in my signature related to fixing open_basedir restrictions, leave tmp 777 fro mthis point on.

You also didnt post that error in your 1st post, you should of posted you already tried chmoding it to 777

actually i duplicated this site from another site. but thats besides the point coz i have 2 licenses. wonder if this is the root of the problem?
