Tomek,
Well, I can say that this time it actually worked for me. I too had
checked and double checked and had it fail several times. I had to
recreate my local development for another reason, so I started with a
vanilla install for a standalone configuration.
Once my local FarCry install as working I tried to upload images to
the image library (still local) and there were no problems. The
dmImage folder was created under /images and under dmImages the three
subfolders were created successfully too (SourceImage, StandardImage
and ThmbnailImage). I then pushed the dmImage folder to my host site
and it worked. I can now upload images through my host site.
For the life of me, i can't see what I did wrong up to this point.
What confuses me now is why i can upload a flash file and see the
dmFlash folder created under the 'files' fiolder, but it's empty, even
though the Library Manger tells me the file is there (I've refreshed
everything).
