Images will not upload

[wotnots]

I cannot save images in Prestashop. When adding an image to a product it says it has saved but it does not. I am sure that this is a server (user permissions) problem but my hosting company says it is not. (They have been wrong before)
Thsi is the last message I received
I have given write permissions for the file and folder you have mentioned but the errors are still occurring. When check the logs I could see the below warning

[28-Aug-2010 12:38:59] PHP Warning: unlink() expects parameter 1 to be string, resource given in /home/passion/public_html/images.inc.php on line 180

Please check this from your end

I have told them that the images file is not the correct path and it should be ..../img/ - they then say:
Hi Clive,

As we could not find any issues at the server end, you need to contact script vendor regarding this issue.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Never use this hosting company - it is not Prestashop friendly. If anyone knows of a really good hosting company offering inexpensive reseller hosting and is Prestashop and Joomla friendly I would welcome the info.

I was having the same problem with "Total choice Hosting"
I have clients Hosted "Here":http://www.bluehost.com/track/businessdevelopmentcenter They are an
awesome company and I have prestashop and Joomla both hosted with them. There service is awesome. They don't have an official reseller program but I use them for my reseller program and it is inexpensive. PM me and I will give you the details if interested after looking at them.

Any way here is what I did to get images in the store until I could get it transfered away from Total Choice Hosting

create your new dir in root of Prestashop - name it imgimport and to this dir copy(ftp) your images of products.

Create a csv file with at least Product #, name, img URL

Use the import tool in Prestashop and import the csv file. Your images should be attached to the proper item.

Use the format for the image URL:

../imgimport/nameofimage.jpg
