ImageCache 6.x-2.0-beta4 and 5

Hello,

I have a problem with ImageCache : it doesb't work.
I applied the explanations written here : http://drupal.org/node/163561 and here : http://drupal.org/node/224913.

I created a new image field for the artcile content type. On "Path settings", i wrote nothing (is it good ?).
I can see my preset for the teaser and the full content in the image field. The imagecache folder was created. When I create a preset 'thumb" for example, the thumb forlder is created in imagecache folder. And when I upload an image, a "images" folder is created in the "thumb" folder, but no image appears in the folder. The images go directly into the files folder.

I tried to set differently the path settings for the image field. But no solution works (Itried "images" after created a "files/images" folder, and "imagecache").

I tried to do a new install of the module with the new version beta5 (after running cron) but it's the same problem.

What's wrong, please ?

I'm having the exact same problem except I'm on drupal 5.x and have tried running imagecache 1.7-2.3, i'm finding this module to be very temperamental. I've tried everything above plus creating the imagecache and its presets folders manually via ftp and assigning permissions "777" to the folders as I thought it was a permissions thing because the file was showing fine in the "files" directory but nothing would appear in the imagecache "preset" folder.

Any ideas?

Hello, Brentor,

I've solved my problem. Imagecache didn't work on my locale machine, but it works on my online website. I had to modify the htaccess file and to enable the simple URL (admin/configuration/system). All is fine !

Hello Marilou,

As I have the same problem (my sites/default/files/imagecache folder is empty!), can you tell me exactly what you do?
What is the content of your htaccess file, and where did you put it?

Thank you a lot!

Bertrand.
