Hi Everybody,

I am getting this error:

Warning: mkdir() [function.mkdir]: Permission denied in /home/ventouri/public_html/templates/ja_tube/ja_templatetools_1.5.php on line 504

I an guessing I need to CHMOD a directory somewhere to 777. Can somebody point me to which directory it is?

Thanks!

Figured it out…

Create directory "resized’ in root images folder and CHMOD to 777.

This is a pretty bad idea. CHMOD 777 allowes all user to execute files in this directory. Better CHOWN the directory.

New to Joomla!? Often even 755 is not working with those stuff, 777 is often the only way to let visitors access content…

Chown != Chmod -- Chown is the "CHange OWNer" command. If set properly joomla can pretty fine access every content and even write into directorys with CHMOD 755.
