Title: Images won't show up and all goes to hell
Post by: theguy on November 14, 2013, 08:03:47 AM
Hi All,

This is not the first time I used Virtuemart but this IS the first time I encounter SO many problems.
I managed to solve all by myself except for a serious issue with the images in the site.
For some reason the images won't sync correctly and I can't set the images for anything. Not manufacturers, not categories, not products, nothing.
Tried to use the Synchronize media to Virtuemart tool but no go. I get a message that some images are missing while others have been imported but nothing show up on the back end.

When I go to the product image section I get this image (attached).
In addition, when I go to the product or category section I get all kind of nice messages like this one:
vmError: Couldnt create thumb, file not found /home2/guywalde/public_html/mahash//images/products/images/stories/virtuemart/product/img20_400x300.png
vmError: Couldnt create thumb, file not found /home2/guywalde/public_html/mahash//images/products/images/stories/virtuemart/product/img20_400x300.png

PLEASE help guys.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Guy.

Your folder is wrong. Remove one /images/products, check vm config templates

Hi Milbo,

Thanks for your answer and that did solve half the problem.
I made the change and it seems the sync operation found the new images, they are now showing under all the broken images.
This is what's shown when I do the sync (attached).
Is there a way to reset only the images table without messing with all the other tables?

I wouldn't like my client to see all this garbage.

Guy.

The simpelst way is to delete all entries. The delete button is imho only deleting the entries, not the files. We will add a button for it.

So just delete all entries and use the synchronise media again.
