Hi,
We are using a windows server to run 2 sites on MSM.
I’m getting the error ‘The upload destination folder does not appear to be writable.’ when I try and upload images to my image directory.  I’ve checked the permissions on the uploads directory.  They come out as: drwxrwxrwx
Any thing else I can check?
Thanks!
Kate

Hi

Please check this link.

Thanks but it looks like we already have read / write / execute permission on all groups - rwxrwxrwx - on this directory

Hey Kate,

Another user experienced something similar, and it turned out to be something with their host setting a certain permission.

Does this sound like your issue?

Keep me posted.

Thanks!

Thanks Kyle - yes I saw that thread.  I tried the health check and got no errors.
I’ll ask the host to try the “add the internet guest user to have full rights on your upload folder to get this to work.” Whatever that means 😊

Hey Kate,

Once you hear back from your host, let me know if they were able to solve your issues.

If not, we’ll keep troubleshooting it.

Thanks!
