Hi !Friendica Support

I set up a Friendica server couple days ago. We have seen couple times a problem where an image attached to a post is visible only to the author of the post. This doesn't happen all the time or for all the images, but has happened to multiple users. If the image is shown broken once, it will stay broken. All the users are on the same server.

- As far as I know, this has happened only in private posts.
- Same person has posted both an image I can see and an image I can't see.
- As the author can see the image in the post, the data definitely is on the server and even accessible from the UI.
- Editing the post and re-adding the image didn't fix the problem.

The error message shown when trying to open a broken image is:

Not Found

The Photo with id 1181454791679d39a348725148987421 is not available.

Server info:
This is Friendica, version 2024.12 that is running at the web location capybara.community. The database version is 1576/1576, the post update version is 1550/1550.

Any ideas what could be wrong or how to continue debugging this?

(I'll be able to investigate this now for couple hours. After that I'll have to come back to this on Monday.)

show variables like 'max_connections'; shows 151 max_connections.

I did: SET GLOBAL max_connections = 200;

I also edited /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf and set max_connections = 200

Is this too high? Too low? Did I do this the correct way?

Thank you!

Thanks!

New error message (of FRIO) about a folder created by the user root.

I haven't found the extensive conversation about this problem with @Hypolite Petovan yet but I'm quite sure that I changed all folders to ownership of user www-data before 28th of November of the smarty folder. Actually there was another conversation about ownership of folders and I changed all folders to be owned by root except storage and view that day on 02:45hs, the new folder owned by root at /view/smarty3/compiled/ like stated below was created on 3:50hs.

As for what I remember of all the conversations this shouldn't have happened.
