I’ve recently installed Taiga on an Ubuntu server, but I’m encountering problems when attempting to save any images or attachments. While it successfully creates all the necessary folders, it fails to save the files within them. Is anyone had same issue?

Hi @Daniel_Siriste

Welcome to our community!

In order to help you, you need to provide more context.  
What error do you have when you upload an attachment?

It doesn’t seem to be a problem in Taiga, maybe a problem with nginx configuration?.

Regards.

There is no error - Taiga PM gives me pop-up everything is ok after uploading the image, than i check the the disk (/taiga-back/media/ user) and i see new folder is created but it is empty.

NGNIX conf file:

```auto

    listen 80;
