Pixelfed 0.11.9 - instagram import - no preview after import

No.
Also I found a fix for Yunohost own configuration, that was not set correctly. This should at least solve the image upload issue (for good).

nice :slight_smile: so when update will be avaliable, I will check and report back.

Picture uploads rights should be fixed by the last update I just shipped.
As for imports, I believe it should fix it too, but it’s untested.

just tried import from instagram, last pictures left to import and same:
when reviewing no picture, when clicking ā€œno preview avaliableā€

and after chown like before all is repared.

Then we still have a mystery to solve :frowning:

And normal picture upload ?

It worked good, but I used

chown -R pixelfed:www-data /var/www/pixelfed/public/storage/m/_v2/

to fix import, and I don’t know if this had any impact on upload.

It may if rights were wrong.
But it won’t change them for new uploads. Can you try to upload a picture and see if there’s a preview ?

Yup, picture upload works alright.

Great. So the picture upload seems fixed for good.

As for the import from Instagram, I don’t understand how it works, hence I don’t understand what makes it fail…

Until someone more experienced with pixelfed internals (in the upstream issue I referenced before) help us, the workaround is to force a new upgrade of the package (or do the chown stuff manually). It will fix the rights.
I made it so that on each upgrade it restores files rights as it’s intended, to prevent any further issue from this problem or another origin.
