Hey folks,
I'm in a bit of a pickle. I built a website for a client using drupal on my local host. Everything worked a-okay. I've got it on my remote host (with Netfirms) now. Everything is working, except for one very important configuration. The website still thinks its hosted on the local host. My client is a photographer, and we're using ImageCache and ImageAPI to resize images and create thumbnails. Certain functions (such as adding a scale and crop or even trying to upload a favicon in the themes section) result in this (or very similar) errorwarning: touch() [function.touch]: Unable to create file /Applications/MAMP/tmp/php/thumbnailimagecache_sample.png because No such file or directory in /mnt/w0106/d41/s09/b02cbd49/www/johnfitzgerald.ca/modules/imagecache/imagecache.module on line 425.
Please note that the "/Applications/MAMP/tmp.." is a directory from my local host, this is a configuration setting I presume.
Any idea? Help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,

See "file system settings" in the admin menu. The temp dir there should probably be changed back to '/tmp' depending on your host. 'sites/{sitename}/files/tmp' may be needed if you are on a locked-down host (and you must create that dir with open permissions) but if you are on a sane hosting plan/company, '/tmp' should be the answer.

Thank you both so much! The amount of support you can get from the Drupal community astounds me. That was exactly what I needed.
Again, thanks you so, so much.
In case you want to have a look at it, the website I'm working on is johnfitzgerald.ca
