Hi everyone,
I've been trying to blast through this issue for many hours now but haven't seen to come up with a resolution for my "icapturevisuals" website. A little backstory: I was over my data quota (of 500Mb) and decided to delete the domain and softaculous WordPress installs to start from scratch. I readded the domain, fixed DNS records, and started a new install of WordPress using Softaculous (while DA is on PHP 7.2 native).
But, I'm running into a problem where whenever I try to upload a file (be it a theme or media) I run into the "Missing a temporary folder" error. My error logs show: PHP Warning: File upload error - unable to create a temporary file in Unknown on line 0
I have tried the fix of editing wp-config.php and adding the line:
define('WP_TEMP_DIR', dirname(__FILE__) . '/wp-content/temp/');
And created the temp folder with full permissions. I also verified permissions for the rest of the files/folders of the install. The other fix I've tried is creating a php.ini file to specify a tmp directory to no avail. I've tried almost every version of PHP, and sometimes that created new problems of losing the database connection despite correct database info/credentials. I suspect this is server-side and the true tmp folder (wherever it is) may not exist or doesn't have write permissions.
Thanks in advance for any help.
