I'm trying to use the image_import module which was working fine 2 weeks ago but know it doesn't list the files in the image_import directory so they can be checked for uploading. I see the categories info but no files are listed. If I delete the files from the image_import directory on my server, I get the message "no files found", but when I create them again they are not listed on the admin/content/image_import page.

I've double checked and the image_import directory permissions are set to 777, I re-installed the latest image module and ran update.php (no updates were listed), user access permissions are correct. I'm not sure what else to do.

I'm wondering if something changed on my hosts end because the same thing happens to my test site. Does anyone have any ideas about what could have changed to make this suddenly stop working?

A remote possibility: are your images called foo.jpg or foo.gif? If they're only "foo" then they might not show up ...

Is this still an issue?

Closing this issue. I think I figured it out. I think the images are getting corrupted somehow by my ISP when I upload to my web host.

Ok everybody, after some Drupal soul searching I found out that you have to actually go to your ftp to find where your files/images files are under sites (on your ftp). Where ever it is write down the actual path of it. Then go to, admin, site config, images, image_import, scroll down to where it says "import path". Input whatever path you wrote down earlier, so it can point to where it actually is. For example, mines was under sites/default/files/image. Put that as the path under import path and wha la!!! Also, another thng I did was change the permission under every folder under sites to 777, just in case. It actually was able to place a temp folder there. So I don't know if the first part helped or the latter, or both but it worked!!!
