Hi Guys, any help please.

Running VM 2.0.12f - installation without any problems - trying to upload product images from front-end without success. Looked for solutions through google, all forums and manual cannot find any.

Problem: cannot upload images from the front end- error message: Warning: fail to move file!

.

Works OK for me in same J/VM versions with administrated multivendor turned on.

Maybe a server configuration issue? For a start your PHP version is not recent enough for Joomla 2.5 - should be a minimum of 5.2.4 and preferably 5.3+

Hi jenkinhill,
Ah, did not see the php requirement - install went through without any problem. But convinced that is the problem. Used VM with other Joomla versions with no problem.

Thank you for pointing that out - Much appreciated and thank you for your time!
Warm SA Regards
