What this is and does
LDM is a general-purpose link and file manager, which handles user uploads and downloads in a flexible way. A range of media players is integrated into LDM and others are included as plugin extras. LDM is described below in the first post of this thread, which also contains a brief list of the currently-known bugs.
This release of LDM works correctly with all VB versions 3.6.x and recent versions of vbadvanced.
I don't know how to fix this, because it's an internal php error and I haven't seen it before.
From a quick search on Google, I guess that your site is using php 4?
Please check the entries you are providing for *thumbs_dir* and *upload_dir*. LDM validates these by attempting to create test files in the directories specified. The error you are reporting is connected to that test (actually to the vbulletin function vbmkdir() which sits underneath the test). So maybe something is going wrong there.
Am happy to help further if this does not solve the problem, but will need vb admin access to your site.
Ok it seems that i fix this with a point before begenning slash.
But a other problem, Jukebox is unable to play mpeg mpg files that are larger, i have a file with 230MB uploaded and on the beginning the strema goes, but it hangs now and a other file with 120MB hangs to.

How to fix this
You are almost certainly running out of cpu time allowed for the php script.
How are you setting up the urls for the entries - a) are they on your own server and b) do you use a full url or just the local filename. *Much much better* to use local filenames on the local server, otherwise it's expensive for the server to stream the file.

a) The files are all uploaded on my server
b) On creating an entry, i use path/file_name like this /uploads/etc/etc/file.mpeg
max_execution_time = 240 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
max_input_time = 240 ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
memory_limit = 128M
max_execution_time = 240 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
max_input_time = 240 ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
memory_limit = 128M
safe_mode is off
Then I'm puzzled - this should be quite sufficient. I'll try some experiments at home and see if I can spot anything obvious.
With version 2.2.7, if you've got uploads enabled and the user who is editing the entry has permission to upload, then part of the 'Edit Entry' form should look like the attached image.
To replace the exiting upload with another, you simply browse for a new upload.
Does this not work for you?
yes, my pages are like the photo attached to your post..
but i didn't realize that "file upload" could replace the file...it seems to me that you can add an other file..whell, i'll add a line of text specifing it!

This is a really great product, thank you very much!
Two questions.
Categories. What is this? With the mindset of forums, it sounds like a category, with forums to follow. Can there be more than one main category? For instance, I want to have a lot of file download sections, then a few separate image download sections.
Version number. Can the version number be removed?

Categories hold entries. Entries are downloads, links to web sites, etc. There can be as many main categories as you wish (within reasonable limits, 32000 in total), and each category can have as many subcategories as required, and so on. (I realise this isn't the way that vb uses the word category.) Every category can have as many entries and subcategories as you want, and every entry can be placed simultaneously in one or many categories.
Version number - You mean the version number (2.2.7) that appears at the right hand side of the LDM navbar? This can be removed with a simple template edit. Edit the links_header template, find the string:
