I have successfully updated to EE2 and ran the SQL query to fix all of my file paths.

However I’m having trouble with the last step, running the php script to generate thumbnails. I’ve added the script to a template, with php enabled on output. And I’d double checked the server_path:

<?php
/* WARNING */
//if you have a large number of files here
//you may run into PHP max_execution_time or memory_limit errors

//change this to the full server path to your upload directory WITH trailing slash
$server_path = '/home/username/mydomain.com/images/products/';

$this->EE->load->helper('file');
$this->EE->load->library('filemanager');

foreach (get_filenames($server_path) as $name)
{
    if ( ! file_exists($server_path.'_thumbs/thumb_'.$name))
    {
        $this->EE->filemanager->create_thumb(
            array('server_path' => $server_path),
            array('name' => $name)
        );
    }
}

echo 'FINISHED THUMB CREATION';

?>

However, I’m getting a page full of errors, and no thumbnails :(

A PHP Error was encountered

Any insight?

What EE2 version are you on? I think things might’ve changed since I posted that solution.

The latest version:  v2.2.2 - Build: date 20110801

Do you know how they’ve changed?

Actually I just found out 😊

If you sync the upload directories via the File Manager, it will automatically create the thumbs for you.

Late to the party, but I recently wrote a couple scripts to automate assigning the appropriate filedir to each file, whether it was a regular field or matrix field.

As well as setting the allowed directory for each custom file field, for file fields within a matrix field too: http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/203380/#952561

Surely I must be doing something wrong, but after running Rob’s code I get this in the database:  https://ellislab.com/asset/images/team-photo/1
I’m certain I’ll need to start over, and that’s ok, but I need to know where I messed up so I can get it right next time.

UPDATE:
OKay I figured it out. I just needed to use Adam’s version for matrix.

THANK YOU!!!!!!
