Dear team,

I am new in this forum and no Typo3 expert.

1) In my Typo3 installation pictures are shown only, if they are directely loaded from file. If I understood right from the forums, in my case pictures are never shown if loadad via PHP (= loaded from the directory typo3temp/pics).
Furthermore I am unable to change CHMOD 775 to CHMOD 777 in the directories typo3temp/pics. Is this a user rights problem the provider can/should solve, or is this specific for Typo3?

2) Also in the extensions loaded from the Typo3 Extensions Repository I cannot change CHMOD 775 to CHMOD 777. I think this could possibly be one reason for the fact that I only see some simple text and tables and no nice graphical design after the installation of extensions from the Typo3 Extension Repository.


My question: How can I deal with the CHMOD 775 extension and image scripts/files produced by Typo3/ImageMagick? How can I see the pictures loaded from /pics directory? How can I see graphical design of the extensions? (Fortunately I have at least the rights to finally delete the files within /pics.)

Safe Mode is off.

What can I do? What can I ask my provider to do for me? - I have a hosted domain with limited possibilities, but I think Typo3 should work there.

I am no PHP expert/programmer, but read in the forums it could also have something to do with exec(). Is that right? What else could be the reason?

One remark: I did not forget to delete the /typo3temp directory and all its subdirectories directely after I copied them to the server. Then I created the typo3temp subdirectories "cs", "llxml", "pics", "GB" und "temp" myself. Finally I gave them all CHMOD 777 rights. This worked well. But all /pics files produced after that have the right CHMOD 775, and I am unable to change these rights to CHMOD 777.

I am installing Typo3 since three weeks, and this seems to be the last step. Thank you very much for every hint!!

Best wishes
