Image caching

Wednesday 10 December 2003 8:52:13 am

I'm having trouble getting my images to configure correctly. My guess is that I'm missing a setting somewhere but not sure where. When I upload an image it correctly save to the storage catalog but not to the variations catalog.

<img src="/var/news/storage/variations/image/p/h/p" width="0" height="0" border="0" alt="" />

my image.ini looks like this
[ConverterSettings]
UseConvert=true
UseGD=true

What am I missing? Some other settings I need to change?

Thanks for the tip Ben. From what I can deduce the problem doesn't seem to be where the images are being cached but that they aren't being cached, but that they aren't being converted properly. The images can be found in the var/news/storage/original directory but not the var/news/storage/variations/p/h/p directory, which is the path to them in both my admin and web sites. Does anyone out there have a suggestion as to why the images aren't being converted properly? Are my converter settings only part of the issue here and I'm missing something else?

I tried debugging and that didn't help resolve the problem. My assumption has been that because my webhosting uses php 4.3.4 that GD will work. Is this an incorrect assumtion? If so how can I resolve this issue. Or better yet how can I find out if GD is running?
