Hi,

I am new to Drupal. I installed the Image module, and uploaded an image. The image is in drupal/files/image/ directory, but I can't view it or its created thumbnail. When I copied the image url into the browser location bar, I got a permission denied message. It seems that the .htaccess in the 'files' directory, is the problem, though I couldn't find the specific command that creates the error.

Try changing the permissions on the images folder itself - check that it's chmod 755. Also see: http://drupal.org/node/8677

you will need to chmod the file to 777 or 755. Try both and see which works...

The file permissions from the Drupal installation directory down to the image file all alow 'read' access. When I moved a copy of the image file to a directory above the 'files' directory, I was able to view the image in the browser.
