secondtube Posted May 27, 2003 Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 So i'm getting fed up quickley with my online photo sharing sites, so i've been trying to set up our schools linux server to share my images. I've set up a public_html folder in my account with full read/write/x access. i put a bunch of images in the folder, and am now trying to link to these images, also with full permissions granted, from the web boards. allz i'm getting is the red x. I know this should work. my full url link for the image would be http://apophis.mohawkc.on.ca/home/cs1781/public_html/105_0569.JPG, but its not working... Anyone have any idea's??

CyberHippie Posted May 27, 2003 Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 Hmmm... are you files named in uppercase as well (JPG) sometimes case can cause problems. Also is that a space in the image name or an underscore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondtube Posted May 27, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 its an underscore as in public_html and i have it coded like that.... also, it is linked with JPG as thats how it seems to be saved as, but i've tried both ways... try to link the file, i have it set up for public, anyone should be able to view it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberHippie Posted May 27, 2003 Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 I'm thinking that's not the actual web path, it's probably something like this: http://apophis.mohawkc.on.ca/~cs1781/105_0569.JPG Although that asked me for a username and password.

paisley Posted May 27, 2003 Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 everytime I refresh this page it asks me for a user /pass for mohawk too did you chmod the folder and the files to 777 ? I wonder if the main school admin has things set up so you can't have public folders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondtube Posted May 27, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 definately chmoded 777 on all folder and shared files... somehow i remember using this same server to set up a public website for our html class a year ago, but i can't remember if we had to enter a p/w or not....

paisley Posted May 27, 2003 Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 I'd say your main folder is password protected so therefore, the subfolders within maybe I was also thinking that maybe you could try just setting up the permissions as read/write for the owner without the execute, and group and other with just read (644)... maybe they don't like the idea of people running scripts off the server... maybe apperently jamhub's gallery's will be back up soon if all else fails Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Musicface Posted May 27, 2003 Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 Hey secondtube, check to see if there's a file in any of your directories called .htaccess - that's the standard file for password protecting a directory. If you're interested, you can read all about it here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/programs/htpasswd.html If you don't want your directory to be password protected, removing that file should do the trick, although you might want to check with your sysadmin first. Peace, Mr. M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
