I have just installed a new EE site and the cache directory Channel Images creates is being set to Owner/Group 99/99. (/public_html/system/expressionengine/cache/channel_images)
When I try to upload a pic it gives me the error "The Local Temp dir is either not writable or does not exist".
When I try to import the image it will create the entry directory (/public_html/pictures/articles/1) but the image will not be created.
Also have Updater and Monitor from Devotee installed on same site and it works fine. This is not happening on any another site I created on the same server just to test this out.
Details:
Server -- VPS running WHM/cPanel (CENTOS 6.5 x86_64 / WHM 11.42.0 (build 22), 77GB free disk space)
Cache dir permission -- 755 (this is normal for a cPanel server and works for all other sites)
EE -- 2.8.1
Channel Images -- 5.4.15
Field test output --
PHP Safe Mode (OFF): Passed
Is Dir: Passed
Is Readable: Passed
Is Writable: Passed
Create Test File: Passed
Delete Test File: Passed
Create Test DIR: Passed
Rename Test DIR: Passed
Delete Test DIR: Passed
I have tried all options in other topics (except manually changing owner/group using ssh as root) and nothing works. Re-installed Channel Images and it still creates the cache directory as Owner/Group 99/99.
