Hello. I want to use ImageCahe on my local linux machine with Drupal. When i upload file through imagefield i get the following error:An image thumbnail was not able to be created. When i looked at sites/default/files i found that orginal image file is there and it's owner is "nobody" and group is "nogroup". Think that it's a problem, but i don't know how to fix :(

try setting permissions to 777 on the folder it is trying to write to.

it's interesting thing that all folders within drupal site have all 777 permissions for any user. that's what is strange...

When I attempted to upload an image that was very large. I ended up using Irfanview to resize the images to smaller than 1500px wide and didn't have an issue further. I think it may have something to do with the memory limits in the ImageAPI - though I'm not certain of that.

I've checked this-no result :(

I'm having the same problem, though in my case the image owner and group are both set to apache. I've checked on some previously uploaded images that work, and their owner and group are set properly. Any idea what could be now causing the owner to be apache and how to fix it?

Go to sites/default/files. Give permission 777 to folder "imagefield_thumbs". And check....... it worked in my case.
