for a few versions now, the browser component of the Media module has been showing empty thumbnails on uploaded images (see attached image). 1 image for some reason is shown with its thumbnail, though the rest are not. otherwise, the browser seems to be working.

please let me know what other info i can provide or what i can do to help.

thanks.

Version: 7.x-2.x-dev » 7.x-1.0-rc1

after playing around today, i think this particular error has to do with file permissions.

first, Media refuses to show any uploaded content if you are using the "Private file system path". that i could not figure out.

second, it seems like the file system permissions got changed somehow, and that was another reason why the thumbnails were coming up blank. so making everything 777 in the "Public file system path" and using the public, not private, file system did get my thumbnails back for now.

however, i prefer to use the private file system, but it cannot get it working yet.

hope that helps.

peace

This should be fixed for everything except for private files now (which has several open issues just for problems related to that).
