Thread:Project:Support desk/mw 1.20.2 thumbs not displayed but while uploading/reply (10)

I put the whole stuff local on my machine and found:

the pages threw Warning: wfMkdirParents: failed to mkdir "/w/images/thumb/20120311_163324-c.jpg" mode 0777 in  /w/includes/GlobalFunctions.php on line 2546

Warning: copy(/w/images/thumb/20120311_163324-c.jpg/180px-20120311_163324-c.jpg): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /w/includes/filebackend/FSFileBackend.php on line 213

nothing happened on these pages until I gave sudo chmod a+w /w/images/thumb then really a lot of thumb-dirs were generated, which were not there before


 * so probably it dies silently on the webserver because of the load?
 * or it's not possible to write 0777?
 * but if it is done one by one, it seems to function

should I set thumb to 0777?
