uploads is for the invoice attachment, download plugin files, you can remove it if you have one already.

 

It will be have this:

 

/uploads/

----------- /1/

--------------- /invoices/

---------------/support_manager_files/

---------------/download_files/

---------------/system/

---------------/client_documents/

I believe system is above the "1" directory. 1 is the company value, so if you have addon companies then you'd possibly have a 2, 3, etc for each company with 1 being the default.

 

The path to your uploads directory should be set under Settings > System > General

I never installed this "upload" folder before.

 

being on debian, my public directory is

 

/home/MY-USER/public_html/

 

my blesta install is at the root of above path, so not in a sub-directory install

 

 

What's is hard to understand is while from the .zip, the blesta folder content is to copy and overwrite all in my public_html folder, and here that's ok.

 

But regarding the "upload" folder

 

it's not clear where the upload folder should be, do it's should be one level upper the public_html ?

 

or if it's has to been in public_html/upload , why this folder was not included in the "blesta" folder when ziped?

[serge]

ok, my "upload" folder was just on level above my blesta install, so all is logic/fine

 

I forgot this from my first install

This is where it should be, in a non-publically-accessible location. But you can put it wherever you want on the filesystem and then update the Uploads Directory setting in Blesta under [settings] -> [system] -> [General] to set the correct absolute path of where you put the uploads directory.
