Images not displaying properly (New Install)

[PJSkiboy]

- VB version: 3.6.7
- Safe Mode: Set to OFF for uploads
- CHMOD: Has been done to the images folder (and all subfolders) under photoplog directory.
- Usergroup permissions have been set properly.
- Rebuilt bitfields.
- The thumbnails were created properly for the two test images that I uploaded.
- Here's my config.php web root address i defined: define('PHOTOPLOG_FWD','/home/-----/public_html/forums'); (----- is to protect my site)


The [IMG] tag url produces this error message: 403 Forbidden

Content visible to registered users only.

I've gone back 3 separate times and made sure the images directory was chmod 777. So unless I'm missing a step in there somewhere, I believe those permissions are set properly.

The [URL] tag url:

Content visible to registered users only.

This produces nothing but a blank white page when you attempt to view it.

I have dug and dug and dug on the troubleshooting forums here and on vb.org and I simply can not find a solution.

My apologies in advance for missing something that's probably fairly obvious, lol.

I did run across this post in this forum already and it sounds very much like the issue I am having currently.

Check the file permissions on the images themselves. They should be set to 644 permissions. If they are not set to 644 permissions, change them, and then try umask to alter the default permissions assigned to newly created files. The link you posted brings me to a login page, not a blank page, as guests are not allowed to view the gallery.

OK, I'm an idiot.

When I did the original install, it failed to copy over the file.php file. Buddy of mine just noticed it was at 0k in size. Recopied it and poof, it magically started working.

Sorry for the clutter.
