Hello,

I've tried searching for a solution to this problem, but none of the solutions worked for me.  

Whenever I try to upload an avatar, I get this error:

You Do Not Have Sufficient Permission To Write To Folder /UserAvatars/. Please Contact Your Hosting Provider To Ensure The Appropriate Security Settings Have Been Enabled On The Server.

I have changed the avatar folder to "UserAvatars" in the root of the portal folder (as you can see above), and I have enabled All Users read and write permissions to that folder (I've also tried registered users, subscribed users, etc...) through the file manager and I'm still getting this error.  I made sure that the avatar image pool was disabled, and I tested out the upload permissions to that folder using File manager and it works fine.  It just won't allow me to upload a new avatar to that folder.

I'm pretty sure that I'm just missing something simple, but I've been trying to fix this one all day and I'm starting to get freakin' frustrated.

Thanks,

Kev

Ok, I think I found a solution.  I clicked "refresh files" in the DNN File Manager and now it works.  Not sure if there was some sort of delay between changes, but if anyone finds this thread, I'd give that a try.
