I successfully installed PhotoPlog Lite on my personal server. But when I tried to do it on a client server, I was getting a bad MIME type error when trying to upload a JPG. I set everything up exactly the same (with their respective config variables) and the permissions are fine.

HOWEVER, I noticed during the install that the client's full path includes a period in it. "/home/vhosts/clientname.com/httpdocs/forum"
So I'm wondering if that can be the problem. Certainly makes sense if PP thinks that everything after the period is a file extension. And at this point, I don't think I can change the client's username on their server, so my question is: Is there any workaround for this?

The period in the server path is not the problem. You don't list the specific message so if it's a ...

There are also other threads on this issue but those should get you going.

Thanks for the reply. I'm so accustomed to safe_mode being off, I didn't realize their server has it locked down.
