It never happened before, but recently. I have an IPB photo gallery on my forum. It was working fine, my members are able to upload photos, but now no one can upload photos. I thought it was the gallery but I wrote to tech support at IPB and they said that PHP was missing a temporary folder, and that my host is the one to write to.

Any idea what they mean by this? How do I activate this temp folder?

OK, I got the file. Thanks. So let me get this straight:

1) I save the file as php.ini
2) change the directory url to upload_tmp_dir = /www/u/username to my website URL
3) upload it to the htdocs directory

and that's it?

It worked. Thanks.

Just curious....are the rest of the settings necessary? can I delete them?
