Gotcha

See below, I believe this is causing the problem:



As I am on a hosted server, I don't have the possibility to change the settings. Is there any way this can be done through a .htaccess file? Why is this so complicated? The securityimages component works just fine without this... sigh...

Anyway, thanks for your help. How would the settings have to look like?

Thanks again, Titus.

Just ask admin to set value:

AllowOverride Options or AllowOverride All
instead AllowOverride None
in your .conf file.

In my case it is file /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/krasneruze.cz_www.conf

and add into .htaccess this parameter:
php_value session.save_path /tmp
php_value session.cookie_path /tmp


( or any other directory )

Hello
my english is 6/10
i've found the solution !!!!!!!!!!
i've checked the requirements of joomla
www.bestofjoomla.net/wiki/com_fireboard/.../system_requirements
and noticed the configuration of php:
the engine directive must be On.
the magic_quotes_sybase directive must be set to Off.
the session.save_path directive must be set to a valid directory.
the file_uploads directive must be On.
the upload_tmp_dir must be set to a valid directory.
the max_input_time directive is set to a value of at least 30.
the post_max_size and upload_max_filesize directives are set to the size of the largest attachments you wish to be able to upload.
the session.use_trans_sid directive set to Off.
the memory_limit directive is set to at least 8M.
the max_execution_time directive is set to at least 15.
the register_globals directive is set to Off.

i've checked the configuration of my virtual server from:
SYSTEM > SYSTEM INFO > PHP Info

or simply putting the phpinfo.php file with:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
and run the file in web browser, for eg.:
www.mysite.pl/components/com_fireboard/t.../default/phpinfo.php

i noticed i've some of the directives of php other than in requiements, so:

i've made a php.ini file with some directives for eg.:
register_globals = off
magic_quotes_gpc = on
max_execution_time = 30
memory_limit = 32M
upload_tmp_dir = /tmp
max_input_time = 30
in my php.ini there wasn't the last two lines

i've upload the file to the directory where the randomImage.php file is located:
www.mysite.pl/components/com_fireboard/t...ault/plugin/captcha/

CAPTCHA WORKS!!!
