Hi this should be a simple question but im obviously doing something wrong.
I have uploaded a load of png images to use as pictures entities, they are all in the media file in the root of the HA but no matter what path i put they will not show up.
192.168.0.:8123/media/.png
/local/media/.png
/local/.png
/media/*.png
I am pulling my hair out as i have been trying all day to sort this and have checked out numerous web pages for the solution.
Thank you in advance

They should be in the www folder.
And the path should be /local/file.png
I have tried that one sorry, looking on a ftp they appear to be in the media folder on the root of the drive. there is a www folder in the cofig but i cant work out how to move them there as the www does not sohw up in the ftp
Ok i have checked the log and this is what im getting. Any Ideas??

its like its seeing me logging in to gain access to the file???
Ok im getting further, seems that any files in the media file are protected and require authentication. the files need to be in the www file to just access for pictures but i have no idea how to get them into the www file
Use samba to transfer the file or use the file editor of HA and upload them there.
Bingo, thank you
