hello
after several days of trying i will ask here. i'm installing 3.1 and everything looks fine. the problem i have is, that there are no files createt in cache and storage. the folders are created, but there is nothing inside.

i was running modfix.sh and i also tried to create the folders first manually.

the other ting is, that it is not possible to upload anything. normally i can upload pictures and other things with common scripts like pmachine or so.

please help, i really need some tipps

I got the same problem yesterday, you can check the chmod for folders i gives 0777 to make it work fine, i`m using cuteftp and its really easy to change the chmod, or u can do it from shell :

chmod 0777 var

hph.

i tried this, but the problem is the same. i'm not shure if there is a problem with the owner. i asked the hosting company to change the owner of the complette installation to apache.

Check, that you can upload with PHP (but I guess, you did this check with other PHP scripts).
Then check the rights.
If you "chmod" them, then do it recursivly in "var".
Maybe your installation has a temporary folder, where uploaded files are places... If so, check the file rights there, too.

Silly question: Do you have enough space? ;) Try with small files.
Is the problem with files or with images, or both?
If images, check the hints in "documentation" for ImageMagick config (image.ini.append)
