Move Custom Avatars from Database to Filesystem FAILS

[SnapOff Racing]

I don't know what the deal is but I can't seem to move my custom avatars from the database to the filesystem. I was able to move all my attachments from the database to the filesystem just fine with no issues but when I try to do the same thing for my custom avatars it fails. Doesn't give me any kinda error or anything it just stops. Here's what happens...

• I goto Avatars -> User Picture Storage Type which brings me here
  
  
• Then I click on Go which then brings me here
  
  
• Then I click on Go again.
• But now at this point it just sits there at the same screen. Down in my web browser status bar I can see it says Waiting for www.mysite.com and during this time I check my webserver folder and I can see the customavatar folder is filling up with images so I know it's working. But then it just STOPS! I don't get any errors or anything it just stops and takes me to a blank screen. It only moves about 43 of my 232 custom avatars that I have stored in the database but then like I said it just stops for no apparent reason. I don't get any timeout errors or anything. I am running all this on my own personal server so I have access to all the files, database etc. Like I said earlier I was able to do this same thing to move my attachments from the database to the filesystem and that worked just fine.
  
  Anyone have any ideas?

are you using a mgc chat box?

[SnapOff Racing]

Yes as a matter of fact I am =x

You have CHMODDED your folders correctly?

[SnapOff Racing]

This is a windows server 2008 system, no CHOMODDING required. Also the fact that I can see the files being created on the filesystem tells me that is no read/write issue.

for MGC Chatbox 2.4.2 you must have you avatars in you databases or you going to get alots of error not only that your avatars wont show up... it did it to me 2..lol

Ok well I can understand that but should MGC Chatbox really be interfering with me being able to move the avatars from my database to my filesystem? I should still be able to move them if I want to but then like you said I might have issues with MGC Chatbox. That's fine but I still would like to know for sure if MGC Chatbox is what is actually causing this behavior. I suppose I could try uninstalling MGC Chatbox and see if that changes anything.

Any other ideas?

Try disabling your modifications and see if it works.
Note: To temporarily disable the plugin system, edit config.php and add this line right under <?php

PHP Code:

define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

Same thing, it only moves about 48 of the avatars and then just stops. I tried this on my other forum and it's doing the same exact thing as well. I don't understand what the heck the deal is.

Is there anything showing up in your error_logs (if you don't know where they are, ask your host)?
