Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.this may be a duplicate of #2062073: Filefield path incorrectly removes files from the server but couldnt tell as the discussions was taken offline with no resolution reported.
this has only just started after upgrading core from 7.19 to 7.26
path def: images/[nid]
when the node is first saved it is saved as unpublished. the master img is saved to the correct location.
if the node is edited and re-saved (without setting as published) it works ok.
if the node is again saved and this time set as published; the path def in lost on save and the file is MOVED from the original location to /files (i.e. no path setting).
not sure what in core could have changed this; have also updated a few other modules at the same time i did core update; but none that should impact this.

liquidcms CreditAttribution: liquidcms commentedjust tested with setting node as published on initial save; and same problem occurs.
Comment #2
liquidcms CreditAttribution: liquidcms commentedi had originally thought this was an issue with filefield_paths but now pretty sure it is an issue with plup.
it worked prior to upgrading from core 7.19 to 7.26.
it is ok if the node is not published; but when submitted as published the img is deleted.
reverted back to 7.19 and it works again.
this is with -alpha, i think i tried latest -dev but it doesn't work at all.. but will try it again.

liquidcms CreditAttribution: liquidcms commentedrevisiting this again and i see the problem still exists.
Comment #4
liquidcms CreditAttribution: liquidcms commenteda little more testing and i can see the issue is a combination of plup and file field paths not working together.
