django filebrowser not allowing folders to be created and does not upload files


I'm trying to implement django-filebrowser into my latest app. I have grappelli installed also. The urls work fine for getting into filebrowser /admin/filebrowser/browse is what I have it set at.

The problem I am having is when it comes to trying to either add a folder or upload a file.

New Folder:

When I'm adding a folder an error is thrown stating:

Please correct the following errors.

Permission denied.

Now the permissions for the folder are fine. I don't understand why it won't allow me to upload files here.

drwxr-xr-x 2 naytive naytive 4096 Jan 18 08:32 uploads/

Upload File:

Normally when uploading a file, the filebrowser upload screen appears with a timer to upload success, however when I try to upload a file it just refreshes the page with url ending

?_save=Upload

It is getting to the point where I will just remove the module because it isn't doing as it is set up to be.

Any ideas?

EDIT: I think the uploading files side of things is caused by the original file permissions also. If we fix this error then perhaps the upload will work too.


Solution

  • If you use it on a server with apache, then you must give apache right to write in this folder (chown).
