FIle copy doesn't work

I get the same problem with JPG files.

Error: The selected file /home//public_html/files could not be copied.

All file and user limits are well above what I need to upload basic images.

Same here, I installed the most recent release of image (20th Jan 07) in the hope of dealing with the thumbnail image and since then have the same problem.

I can ftp and http files onto the server with other methods (e.g. SCP and upload/attach) but image module won't create the files at all giving the error.

Hope this helps!

I have exactly the same problem here...
Still trying to figure out what is going on, though no clue yet..

image.module or image_attach.module is pretty borked atm...

Peter chen: Try disabling all your contrib modules, and only enable image/image_attch..
See what happens then...

Are you sure GD 2 is installed on your server?

Setting priority to reflect the status of the module for usage...

Stefan, thanks for that: yes, I turned them off to see if that was the issue and double checked GD2, here's the report (drupal also reports it in working order):

gd
GD Support enabled
GD Version bundled (2.0.28 compatible)
FreeType Support enabled
FreeType Linkage with TTF library
GIF Read Support enabled
GIF Create Support enabled
JPG Support enabled
PNG Support enabled
WBMP Support enabled
XBM Support enabled

Try disabling every contrib module except the image.module (thus, also DISABLE image_attach and image_gallery) and now try uploading an image through image.module..

Does it work now?

My guess is there is something terrible wrong in image_attach...

You're brilliant. I only had to diable image attach and it works again - disabling the other contribs was not required. There's the problem, and the temporary work around for others.

Thanks for your advice on this one,

OK guys, thanks for narrowing it to image_attach. I will have a look this evening and see if i can't get things straightened out.

Same problem altho a little different, i can't upload image unless i disable image_attch. But i need image attach on other modules i created to attach image to it. The weird thing is it was working till we got plenty of image, then suddently it wasn't.
I reinstalled the module, downloaded the latest version, still not working... HELP !

Hi,

Similar issue under 5.x: In my case the error message was related to the image.module; more specifically in a scenario using image and i18n together.

From 5.x onwards, i18n uses file revisions for attachements.

If you created a translated node (from an existing image node), the image.module would think it had to create a new file whereas intention was to use an existing one (just with another revision).

I added therefore in _image_insert of image.module at the beginning:

function _image_insert($node, $label, $image) {
// If i18n was originator via translation, i18n will care; no updates are necessary
if ($image == basename($image)) {
return;
}
