hello

Mautic installed on your own hosting.

Incorrect saving a lead with avatar.



When saving a lead with an avatar, log says:

This message saying that the application could not create a directory to store avatars.
After you create this directory manually, the application will further pay the same mistake, and therefore it is impossible for me to accurately determine the cause of such behavior.

Thank you for the clear and concise post! It makes it much easier to read the problem and try to help solve it. Based on the last part of your post I think the problem is in the file ownership. Can you verify that the /media/images/lead_avatars directory is correctly owned by the web or apache user? Typically on a VPS system this is www:data. Most of the time when the ownership is not correct the system cannot properly write to the folder (even if you’ve given the forbidden 777 access). :slight_smile:

If this doesn’t work just update this thread and hopefully we’ll have some other ideas to try.

Hope it helps!

David, thank you for responding to my call.
Changing permissions to 777 did not help.
I do not have a VPS system. I have a regular web hosting. Maybe there is a problem

Hey :slight_smile:

You should absolutely NOT use 777 :wink: That’s always dangerous. Rather than changing permissions we need to make sure that the web user is the owner of the directory. How was Mautic installed? Did you upload the files directly?

Thanks!
David
