This error is spread all over in error.txt file in my ftp account. I have to manually delete it from FTP after each 2-3 days. Can anyone help me getting rid of this issue ?

[dragonexpert]

Does your uploads folder have the correct permissions?  The uploads directory should be chmodded to 777.  You can check this using your FTP account. [docs]1.8/install[/docs]

[DotaInternational]

No it was 755. I have set it to 777 now. I hope now it will get fine ?
Also The link you gave is about 1.8 ???
I am using 1.6 latest version... Will this solution work for 1.6.15 ????

[.m.]

^ that documentation is also applicable to earlier versions of MyBB (eg. 1.6.15)

Try searching for orphan attachments in your ACP. It will delete attachments that are broken somehow.

[DotaInternational]

I've updated all the permissions. I've got the point that they are searching for orphan attachments in documents, What I do not understand is, how can this stop attachments from searching orphan attachment.

I'll look again in next 1-2 days and see if this issue is gone.

Bro, still I am getting this error. The same error stated above. Same code same text. I have checked it in detail and all the folder permissions are set, as it was described in above document. But still error persists....

[StefanT]

Have you removed the orphan attachments successfully?

[DotaInternational]

Have you removed the orphan attachments successfully?

No I did not, how can I remove those ?


Edit : I just removed those in Forum &Posts >> Attachments >> Find orphaned attachments >> Delete all orphaned attachments. Now I am waiting to see if this removes the problem. Because I just check it before deleting orphaned attachments earlier and it was not fixed.

[DotaInternational]

Thanks. Issue has been solved by removing orphaned attachments.
