Problem with VBB 2.2.6, attachments

[SilverBullet]

There seems to be a problem with the new version on my site when you do an attachment. I try to attach a jpg, and it says invalid format even though it is the correct format. Any attachment does not work!

Any ideas on this?

www.5thgenmaximas.com/vbb is the site. Thanks.

The uploaded file is not a valid GIF or JPG file. Please ensure that it is and try again.

Do you have a phpinfo.php file? If not create a text file with this content:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

Name it 'phpinfo.php' then upload it to your forum directory and post the URL here. This will help us troubleshoot the problem.

PHP is running with Safe Mode on. You need to enable Safe Mode in your Admin CP and specify a Safe Mode Temp Directory that has been chmoded to 777. Look in vBulletin Options/Upload Options.

Now I am getting this error...after switching the switches..

Warning: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 10112 is not allowed to access /tmp/poopra.jpg owned by uid 2526 in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/5thgenmaximas.com/httpdocs/vbb/admin/functions.php on line 1685


When I post a new post with a attachment this happens. The dir is made, and set to 777.

Are you sure the /tmp directory is chmoded to 777? Note that is off the root file system and not part of your webspace. Generally you wouldn't be able to chnage this unless you were logged in as root.
