My droplet is running Ubuntu with Virtualmin installed and has 2 virtual servers. There is the main server, then a sub-server.
My sub-server is where I am testing and running into problems.
I am using the following wordpress plugin: http://codecanyon.net/item/justified-image-grid-premium-wordpress-gallery/2594251 which uses timthumb to generate the thumbnails.
Inside the justified image grid plugin folder are the plugin files and timthumb.php and it’s cache folder that has an index.html file and timthumb_cacheLastCleanTime.touch
I have tried just about every combination of chmod and chown on the timthumb related files and folder.
Here is the error I get in the log: [Fri Jan 17 04:51:57 2014] [error] [client 75.132.160.71] PHP Warning: touch(): Utime failed: Permission denied in /home/artimeg/domains/beta.artimeg.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/justified-image-grid/timthumb.php on line 206, referer: http://beta.artimeg.com/2013/10/30/image-post/
http://beta.artimeg.com/2013/10/30/image-post/ is a post for testing. In the log file I get the following: GET http://beta.artimeg.com/wp-content/plugins/justified-image-grid/timthumb.ph…om/wp-content/uploads/Avenged-Sevenfold_760_20131011.jpg&h=280&q=90&f=.jpg 400 (Bad Request)
The image file does exist as you can see: http://beta.artimeg.com/wp-content/uploads/Avenged-Sevenfold_760_20131011.jpg
I am at a loss for ideas, so any help is much appreciated!

sudo chown www-data -R /var/www/timthumb-folder
Got it working! <br> <br>I think it was a combination of permissions and GD Library. <br> <br>Once the permissions were ok, the site gave me an error stating that the GD Library was not installed. Once I got that installed, everything is working! <br> <br>Thank you for the help!
I’ve tried setting the folder and files to 777 and tried users: root and www-data <br> <br>I deleted the folder, re-created it and still no luck. <br> <br>I also restarted apache after making the changes.
