Transformed Images are failing to load with a 404 error For example:

http://mysite.com/index.php?p=cpresources/transforms/382&x=v0nGRK3Qr

This happened after I swapped the db. So, everything had previously been working.

Also:

  • My images reside /public_html/mysite/img/posts/

  • BUT, Update Asset Indexes generates The path of your source "Main Post Image" appears to be invalid And, none of the images load when I try to view Assets in cp.

  • I can access the image from the public URL to the assets is http://www.mysite.com/img/posts. And, I can access the original uploaded images here.

  • I assume the path to my images (which I understand can be different from the URL) is the problem.

  • Path is current set to /mysite/img/posts/'. I have tried multiple permutations - nothing seems to work.

Help/Thanks

  • I tried adding generateTransformsBeforePageLoad to general.php. But, I still get a 404 error and the image transforms do not load. – Hellyar Aug 9 '17 at 13:42
  • Oh, I tried a fresh re-install of Craft and the db. – Hellyar Aug 9 '17 at 13:53

/mysite/img/posts/ is an absolute path pointing to the root of your drive mount.

You probably just need to make it relative. i.e. either mysite/img/posts or ./mysite/img/posts.

  • Nope. I have tried every which freaking way. – Hellyar Aug 9 '17 at 20:13
  • Incredible. It was a freaking period. ./img/posts/ worked. Held up by a freaking "." Ugh. Thanks. – Hellyar Aug 9 '17 at 20:29
