Dear Reader,
When i want to modificate my profile after a fresh installation i get the error
Oxwall can't connect to update server. Seems you need to enable `url_fopen` in your php settings.
Can somebody tell me what to do with this message?
Is that the reason too that i cannot change my avatar?

Franck, the message you are receiving means that you should contact your hosting company and ask them to enable the 'url_fopen' for your server where your Oxwall is installed.

Hi Michael,

Thank you for your reaction.

Sorry for the delay in answering, but we need definfitive your help for www.DeSlon.TV/oxwall

We solved the url_fopen plroblem. Indeed we had to ask our provider to change the php.ini file.

Now we have just ONE problem to solve.

 

We don't get any photo's or avatars or any picture on the front-end.

If we upload one from the front-end, we get the error  NO FILE CHOOSEN but the avatar is on the server in ow_user >> plug inns >> base >> avatars

 

Now I gave all the maps in ow_userfiles  777 and removed all the plug inns from the app

 

Some people say that the problem is in the .htaccess files

Do you know what to do now?

With friendly regards

Hi Michael!'

I could solve my problem myself!!

I replaced the .htaccess file from ow_userfiles with my normal .htaccess and everything works!!

Thanks for your attention and have a good day

Frank
