When uploading an image, it go to the right folder: /files

But the thumbnails images (afer the preset work) also go to /file and not to /files/imagecache like it should be, and the sub-folder /files/imagecache/thumbnails (thumbnails is the preset name) doesn't even create.

How to fix it?

As near as I can tell, I'm having the same issue. While I'm in edit I can see the pics I've uploaded but once I save the post they don't show. I checked my /default/files and everything is going there, except one preset which isn't being created at all. I looked in /default/files/imagecache and none of the uploads are there.

This is quite a common problem and is_more_likely_ a Drupal or server configuration issue than a problem / bug

If you haven't already found the following nodes, these might help:

Troubleshooting imagecache
http://drupal.org/node/224913

Troubleshooting imagecache migration
http://drupal.org/node/346042

I've gone through just about everything I can think of to get this version (5.x-2.3) to work on the staging server

Annoyingly it was a breeze to setup on my Ubuntu dev environment

With your next post, try to describe:
What you've done (config: file system working, cleanURLs working etc.)
What software you have (Versions of Drupal, PHP, modules etc.)

I'm currently trying to get a bit more feedback from the server but I'll have to make a similar post very soon it would seem!

Apache error logs are not helping me get to the bottom of this!

Thanks Bobuido! The trouble shooting page was exactly what I needed. I had a space and a "&" in my image file names. I just changed this and I'm good. They mentioned getting a module to make it work, but I don't really want any more modules if I can get away w/ it. =)

Wish I could help w/ your problem, but if I get too deep in Apache & DB's I'm kinda' lost. =) Are you going to upgrade anytime soon? / Would that even fix it?

You're welcome Kessin. I'm glad it was a simple fix for you

Unfortunately I think I've checked / tested pretty much everything on the troubleshooting page

File system works
CleanURLs work
Image toolkits work

:S

I'm 99.9% sure this is a server issue...enhanced security perhaps? I might set up a fresh Drupal or two (with only ImageAPI and Imagecache installed). Both with identical code but running in two different environments

Just for anyone interested, I went back and loaded some more pics with spaces in the names and they worked just fine. I think it was the "&" that was keeping the others from working, and not the spaces.

ah, sound like #357569: Add support for transliteration in the module would help here.

http://drupal.org/node/224913 should address most of these issues already.
