I am using Virtualmin, Drupal 7, and a Debian server. Make sure to use relative paths and have the right privileges for the Apache user. I personally like this article fix file upload. He has good observations. It worked for me. Recently, I downloaded my site to my Mac computer. The specified file temporary could not be copied because the destination directory is not properly configured. I've seen this error a few times and it's usually not an issue with the temporary folder, but the final folder where that file is copied after living in the temp folder.
By doing this i got a more specific message:. Just thought i would share this info. Or something similar should reslove destination directory issues. Double check that the owner has write and execute permissions on all subdirectories. If the directory files is not "owned" by the Web server there are two ways to proceed.
These instructions assume you have shell access to the Web server. If you do not have shell access, please contact your hosting provider for additional support. Ideally you will be able to change the "owner" of the directory files to match the name of the Web server. On a Unix or Linux-based server you may verify "who" the Web server is running as by issuing the following commands:. The first column in the returned text is the "user" that your Web server is operating as.
In this case the user is www-data. To make your files directory writeable by the Web server you need to reassign its ownership using the following command:. If you do not have sufficient permissions on your server to change the ownership of the folder, the next best option is to provide group-write access to the folder with the following command:.
You should also be able to adjust the directory's permissions using an FTP program as outlined above. Scroll to the section labelled, "File system" and confirm your settings are now correct. These folders are recreated by the system if needed. Sometimes when making a new install of an existing site these folders existing already cause problems.
Also if your CSS isn't working after making a new install of an existing site this can also be fixed by deleting these files and letting drupal recreate them. Another source of error is that it cannot write to the files folder. In my case I solved it using:. If running Drupal with PHP as module of web server, for example Apache, when user which is defined in main web server configuration file using User directive should have write acccess to it.
My temporary folder was set to ""tmp7zXhVVCO" and it actually copied the installation files nicely, after every retry i saw the temp file being copied there, but installation kept failing. The problem however is the owner not the rights, wich is why removes this error, but we all know that this is not a way to go on production sites.
What you should do, is change your temporary folder to anything else, such as "temp" or whatever suits you, as long as it does not exist yet , drupal will create this new folder with apache rights, not user rights, and your problem will be solved.
I don't really like any of the existing answers so I'm just going to start one myself that I'll probably update over time. Mainly with shell commands. After that I didn't have any problems. I had the same issue on a migration. If you run across this problem using Pantheon and continue to get the error after setting the temp files directory path s , you may also need to switch the Connection mode on your dev instance dashboard from Git to SFTP.
Your Drupal site may be attempting to save files to a directory managed by Git e. In order to do so, switch to SFTP. Once the files have been saved, you can switch back to Git, and the dashboard will prompt you to commit the changes that have been made on the server. I was using IIS in Windows.
I am using Drupal 9, in my case the folder where the translations are saved was missing. Start by looking at logs which vary. Sign up to join this community.
