When I view an article in the admin interface I can see the image name but no thumbnail. The image is also missing from the user interface. The images are still in a sub directory of the var folder. I don't want to have to re-upload the hundreds of images that have been added. Is there a way to re-link to the existing images. As far as I am aware there have been no database changes.

Have you checked to verify the web server has full permissions throughout the var directory? If that's not the problem, you'll want to check debug output.

Hi,
The VAR folder and it's subfolders are all set to 777 to remove any permissions issues.
I can see similar to the following in the debug output:-
The reference alias original file var/plain_site/storage/images/galleries/volutidae/amoria-maculata-caroli/2804-1-eng-GB/Amoria-maculata-caroli.jpg does not exist
But this file does exist at the location specified. Should it have public_html at teh beginning of the URL?

when viewing the article contianing the image file I have noticed that the name of the file has spaces within it. ie 'first last.jpg'
The file itself is called 'first-last.jpg'
I assume this is significant as i can re-upload an image and it displays correctly. Which SQL tabel contains the filenames?
