I don't see my pets...help

[sdsmith64]

ok so i have a server MonsterHost.com and i have the site up...I log in as admin to upload new jpgs for my first adoptable ...I up load the jpgs and every time the site says Success! but i see no image...i see the pets name...and i can adopt him but all i see is its name.
Now on the site it says "You may upload .gif or .jpg images no greater than 150 KB" ...but my jpgs are around 50 kb or 60 kb each...sooo...
BUT i do see the jpgs in my cPanel folder for pictures ...so i need help...thanks, steve

In the picuploads > gif and picuploads > jpg folders there should be a .htaccess file in each of those folders. Try deleting that file and let me know if that makes the images appear successfully. On a few hosts it seems that the .htaccess file causes 500 internal server errors when trying to view images, so you can delete it to solve the issue. The .htaccess file is simply an additional layer of security so removing it won't do any harm.

Thanks,
Brandon

would i have to do that every time i upload images for a new adoptable?

No, it would be a one time thing. Removing the two .htaccess files will also make any images already uploaded work fine as well. :)

Well I've had my friend to look into this (he knows php and he put the site on my server) and he can't find the
.htaccess file ....i'm sorry but i'm an artist not a programmer (I did my web site logo and the cartoon zombies) ...so i have no clue what to do...i'm stuck. Brandon PM me if you can if you want to look at my server, Thanks, Steve http://www.zombieadoptions.com

On some CPanel servers unfortunately the .htaccess file can be a hidden file. You can either enable viewing of hidden files in your FTP client (the procedure varies based on your FTP client) OR you can go into your CPanel and click on the Legacy File Manager and make sure the "Show Hidden Fildes (dotfiles)" option is selected in the pop-up and browse to the picuploads > gif and picuploads > jpg folders and simply delete the .htaccess files through the CPanel file manager. :)

Let me know if that helps at all. :)

Thanks,

"go into your CPanel and click on the Legacy File Manager and make sure the "Show Hidden Fildes (dotfiles) option is selected"
but when i went to what i think is my jpg folder i still don't see it (.htaccess file)

Ok, PM me your CPanel details and I'll take a look.

Ok, looking at things it appears that the image paths are incorrect. For instance, this image:

http://www.zombieadoptions.com/adopt/picuploads/jpg/74f38ec222ffaa323ea2091858f1d2ba.jpg

Returns a 404 Not Found error.

Double check your config.php file and make sure all the values are correct. For instance, I think your $script_path variable should be blank, not /adopt as it appears by your image URLs. :)
