Hi

I have set my upload folder to a symbolic link to an attached volume. The file upload seems to work, I get the green tick and I can download the file successfully. However the thumbnails are not displaying
in the admin or in the front end. When I copy the thumbnail url from the admin, the page has this error:

Db file path not found

Any ideas?

Thanks for your help.

I figured it out, it was a problem with the paths in the config file.

I am using a volume on digital ocean to store the uploads, and I got it working like this:

$conf['data_location'] = 'digital_ocean_volume/_data/';

// where should the API/UploadForm add photos? This path must be relative to
// the Piwigo installation directory (but can be outside, as long as it's
// reachable from your webserver).

$conf['upload_dir'] = '../../../mnt/volume_lon1_02/';

Where digital_ocean_volume is a soft symlink to mnt/volume_lon1_02
