Attaching file to catalogue records

Dear All,

Hope you are fine.
I am new to Koha and have setup Koha 18.11 on a Debian Stretch OS. Everything is working fine and all the features are functional, except the File upload page (under 856$u) where I am trying to attach some pdf, .doc and .xls files with catalogue records. upload path is /var/lib/koha/kemu/uploads. The problem is that previously (some days ago) it was working fine and some files were uploaded successfully without any issue, but since 2 weeks, every time I try to upload / attach a file with catalogue record, I get the error "File could not be created. Check permissions." The owner and group of the uploads folder is kemu-koha. To resolve this issue, I have even granted read write and execute permissions to group and users (others) as well but still I am facing this error. It has been few days, and I am unable to resolve this issue, and it is really frustrating because our library staff has some tight deadlines to upload the whole catalogue and I do not know how to get rid of this nasty error. Please if someone can help me resolve this issue, I shall be very grateful.

Regards,

Farhan

Hi Farhan, 

this sounds more like a support request rather than a bug, especially since you said it worked before and didn't mention an update breaking it.

Questions like this should be asked on the Koha mailing list (http://koha-community.org/support/koha-mailing-lists/) or in the #koha IRC channel (http://koha-community.org/get-involved/irc/). Many more people will see your question there.
