me againl :-)

my users are allowed to upload avatars. i double checke deverything and the picturs get uploaded without problems ( i can see them in the files folder on my ftp). the folder has all the rights it needs. but when i click the profile the picture won't show. all it says is "users image". i tried accessing the picture on my server via http (http://www.mydomain.de/drupal/files/picture-1.jpg) and i get the following error:

Server error!

The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there was an error in a CGI script.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.
Error 500

trying to access the files folder itself via http gets me the same error.

when i try other folders like "themes" i get a different error

Access forbidden!

You don't have permission to access the requested directory. There is either no index document or the directory is read-protected.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster. 

aus.

anybody knows why neither me nor drupal seem to be able to access the files folder via http? could it be a setting on the server? i read something about safe_mode somewhere sometime when i was searching for solutions but i'm not sure whether that might be related. safe_mode is currently turned ON and i would have to contact my provider to get that changed.

cheers

Should consider turning safe mode off, its far too restricting & many PHP programs won't run with it on.
