Wordpress uploads (error: Missing a tempoary folder)

  • When trying to upload anything to a Wordpress website. I keep receiving this error- Missing a temporary folder. There is no error in the error logs or the access logs. In the access log it just looks as if everything's ok. This is a urgent issue as I can't upload anything.

  • Hello @bryony1999


    Thanks for contacting us.


    That problem occurs by missconfiguration of PHP. Have an eye on this workaround: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-t…older-error-in-wordpress/


    But you should also check your PHP Configuration to solve the issue in front where it comes and not at the end! ;-)


    For the future please also have our Reporting rules - Reminder in mind!


    Best regards.

  • Hello,


    Without more informations to your PHP-implementation and so on, NO!


    Try to define upload_tmp_dir within your PHP-Settings for your site!


    PS: I am sorry about to say this, but we are not here to teach some configurations that are not I-MSCP related! Please use Google!


    Best regards.

  • Hello,


    You are also the Sys-Admin of the server? If no, please contact them to solve the issue. If yes, then you should know what you are doing!


    As you correctly understand is I-MSCP an Control Panel for Hosting Providers to manage their customers.


    Regarding to your issue (if you are the Sys-Admin):


    Please check where your php.ini file is stored and check for the upload_tmp_dir , if it doesn´t set in the php.ini file set it up by yourself!


    Is it set up in the php.ini file, please check if the directory exists, when not - create it and give them proper permissions.
