In my case barcode works just fine, but I need some kind of private setting in my site. I've decided to set the private file system base path.

I've noticed that barcode doesn't work with this king of configuration. In the specific case, it create the image on the file system but doesn't create the record inn drupal file table; also it exposes the wrong path in the Only local images are allowed. tag: the image is linked to the absolute private file path, but it's not in the document root and the web server does not get access to it.

I've solved my problem installing private_download module to manage the private files, leaving file system to public and barcode working as expected.

Would be nice to add complete support to Drupal private file system.

yep - need this too. Would be worthwhile having the ability to set file paths and public/private as on other files fields.

Drupal 6 is long out of support.

This module is no longer supported. I suggest you try using the Barcodes module instead (https://www.drupal.org/project/barcodes)

Barcodes is very similar to this module, and is supported for Drupal 7, 8, and 9.
