Cannot write no-picture image to (categories) images folder. Please check the folder's writing permissions.

[gasemans]

I am trying to regenerate the images.
But if keeps on sending the same error

I have tried every possible permission.
But i keep on getting the same error.

Can some one explain to me what i am doing wrong?

I am using the latest version of Prestashop.

you'd better check the following folder's permission

/img
/img/c
/img/tmp

and it is better set the folder permission to 755

I have the same error Cannot write "No picture" image to (categories) images folder. Please check the folder's writing permissions. 

 

I set the permissions to 777 and I'm using the superadmin so I dont know why this error continues?

 

Can any body help me?

It seems like you miss file name "no_image.jpg" or like this, probably its used when you dont have any images of you product.

 

I have same error on locahost prestashop where is all premonition is on by default but only if i have watermark module active.

 

Try to desactivate his module

The solution in my case was:

 

I had some 404 errors on my website which was for the images that didn't have a picture set. So my system automatically set an url path to the image by choosing this filepath: 

"/img/c/sl-default-medium.jpg"

...because sl stands for "slovenian" - my default language. But there are no images on the server with that name. So i took english images with this url path: 
 

"/img/c/en-default-medium.jpg"

copy, and rename them with the sl-.... infront. Now it works!

 Thank you, the same way worked out well for me.

I also had this problem and after giving chmod -R 777 to img, and then chown daemon:daemon -R img/ the problem was still present. 

Then I've manually checked the regeneration templates and the problem was there.

 

You need to be careful at the templates name in the BO->pref->img

 

 

 

have the exact names with the list of templates in the folder public_html/img/p (/p for products)

 

 

So as you see, my problem was that after migrating data from an older prestashop, the templates were renamed and added an 2x at the end.
