Hi,

Every time I login to openx I receive the following message

Error: File permission errors detected.
These may impact the accurate delivery of your ads,
See the debug.log file for the list of unwritable files

I checked the var/debug.log file but there isn't any record of permission errors.

Moreover I tried to create a new banner and upload a new image but after submitting it, the image was not saved. I don't encounter the same problem in the already created banners, i.e. if the banner has an already uploaded image and I just want to change it, it just changes it without any issues.

The strange thing is that I thought that it had to do with the permissions of www/images and var/cache which I changed them to "chmod -R 777 folder_name". However, because I was keeping having the above mentioned issues, I changed all the openX files "chmod -R 777 openx_root_folder". Nevertheless the problem is still there.

I have OpenX v2.8.7, running on Apache, PHP 5.2.17 and MySQL 5.1.39

Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Hi again,

I found the solution. Just in case somebody encounters the same problem it has to do with the


./var/mywebsite.conf.php:83:webDir="full_linux_path/openx/www/images"

Because I had copied the directory to a different place the path was wrong.
