2.  When using a browser on the Statistica Server:





Known causes

• PHP.ini file contains an incorrect path to the WebStatistca TEMP file ( location of TEMP file:  <drive>:\WebStatisticaPub\wwwroot\PHP\TEMP)
• Permissions for the TEMP users do not have write access.  

OS: Windows

INCORRECT PATH

If the php.ini file, the php configuration file, has the incorrect path which does not match the actually installed location, then modify the php.ini file.   For example, Statistica Server has been installed with the TEMP folder at this location E:\WebStatisticaPub\wwwroot\PHP\TEMP but the path in the file shows  C:\WebStatisticaPub\wwwroot\PHP\TEMP or:

 

 ; Temporary directory for HTTP uploaded files (will use system default if not ; specified). ; https://php.net/upload-tmp-dir upload_tmp_dir = C:\WebStatisticaPub\wwwroot\PHP\TEMP

The resolution is to replace the incorrect path with the correct path and save the file: 
 

 ; Temporary directory for HTTP uploaded files (will use system default if not ; specified). ; https://php.net/upload-tmp-dir upload_tmp_dir = E:\WebStatisticaPub\wwwroot\PHP\TEMP

PERMISSIONS ISSUE

To resolve, add the SWS_ADMIN and SWS_USER groups, created when Statistica Server was installed, to the TEMP via the Security tab (right-click>>select Security).  

1.  Add the groups:



2.  Add the Read and Write permissions for each group:
