I've got acidfree up and running great. I have a problem when trying to edit a photo after it's been loaded. If I want to change the body text, for example, and hit save, the thumbnail is wiped out. Only the original and preview sized images are available. To remedy this I have to upload the original photo each time I want to edit any other bit for the photo.

Is this with a site that has been upgraded from 4.7? or is it on a newly installed site?

I can't seem to reproduce this error.

Can you disable all the other modules that are not required for Acidfree and try again?

Can you disable Acidfree and try again?

This is a new 5.1 site. I've disabled other modules and am still getting this error:

The selected file /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/newsite/files/images/theatrical_01_1.thumbnail.jpg could not be copied, because no file by that name exists. Please check that you supplied the correct filename.

If I disable acidfree, I don't see how to view the thumbnail. Can you explain a bit more?

Thanks!

Just to test this out further, I installed a vanilla drupal 5.1 file set and then only added the acidfree, image, and views modules. I still get the same results.

If you disable acidfree, the image is still there because the Image module is what handles the image and all its derivatives. For example, with Acidfree enabled, browse an album and select an image. In another window (or tab) disable Acidfree from the admin interface. Back in the first window, click on the edit button for the image.

or without all the back and forth, write down the nid of an image node. Disable acidfree. Go to node/xyz/edit where xyz is the nid of the image node.

Hmm, interesting. The same thing happens so it's not acidfree that's causing the behavior. Sorry for the false alarm!

I will have to track down the culprit in the image module or file system.

This sounds very familiar... I think there was a bug that was just recently fixed in the Image module that was supposed to address something like this.

Try checking out the latest image module development snapshot (as opposed to the latest stable release).

Bingo. I updated the image.module with the dev snapshot and it magically fixed itself. Thanks for the speedy support!

I must say that acidfree is THE BEST. Man, I've been hoping for this kind of image and video integration in drupal for awhile. Keep up the great work!
