I've been having an issue with Habari media silo on my live site lately. The plugin works fine on my local install (windows), so I figured it must be a permission issue. Something I could use some help with.

I am unable to see any of the "Browse", "Upload", or "Create Directory" links on the top bar of the silo pane, the only thing I see is "Root". PHP on my host (itrebal :) ) runs as a different user than the one I use (lI'll call it apache-user). Thinking it was a permission issue, I have go as far as setting my entire Habari install to 777 permission, but still no luck.

Having originally created the user/files/ directory myself (owened by 'dmondar'), I deleted the whole files directory to allow The plugin to create its own. It did, owned by apache-user, but I still don't see the link.

This is on Firefox3 and Safari3, no JS errors in the Firebug console. And nothing in the apache log.

Any ideas?

Just in case someone bumps into this issue, I have managed to get it to work by just activating/deactivating the plugin. I still don't know what was going on with it though.

I can't tell from your message, but the .deriv directory needs to have
an elevated permission, too. I use 0755.
