Is there any way you can add an attachment e.g a word/excel/powerpoint file to the body of a message?
Or can you only do this via a link?

Hi. I installed Mikes MOD to my snitz forum on a brinkster hosted site. Everything else works fine but the upload doesnt work. Brinkster has one folder that has read/write premissions called DB and it's in the root of the page and i don't know dow to use this folder with the MOD because the mod wants to upload the pictures on a subfolder where the forum files are (www23.brinkster.com/username/forum/subfolder)

I guess what im asking is that what file i have to modify to get it to find the files from the DB folder and how do i change the code?
Hope this makes sense to you ppl.

Since DB folder is meant to hold Access databases, it is not accessible from the web.
So uploading files to that folder will NOT work.

You might want to ask at Brinkster if there's a way to edit folder properties.

Well i checked that by looking through old post and figured that the DB folder is the only folder that has read/write permissions. Server admins can only change the premissions on other folder and i don't think thats gonna happen. Soo, am i screwed or is there still something i can do?

"Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0046'

Permission denied

/syndi/forum/outputFile.asp, line 47 " when trying to upload and the line 47 in the outputFile.asp looks like this "ScriptObject.createFolder(memberPath)"

This error message means you have no permission to create a folder.

Hi,

I am facing the same problem. I need to adjust the path to a folder that is outside my www website (for security purposes my ISP does not allow it to have write permissions).
Can some one be kind enough to show what to modify?
I would appreciate it greatly.

You're going to be out of luck unless your ISP will change the folder permissions, no way around it.

Is there any other MOD dealing with attachments that allow path modification to a folder that could have read/write/modify permissions outside forum folder?
