I was just debugging the image handling, because newly allocated pictures for new products were not shown in a shop updated from 4.2 to 4.4.
As it turned out, the reason was, that in the “pictures” directory the new sub-directory “master” (with it’s subdirectories “1” to “12”) was not available.
I then searched the cumulative update package from 4.2 to 4.4 for a place, where this “master”-directory with its sub-directories were created, but could not find any.
Have I missed something, or is the creation of the “master”-directory really missing in the update-process?
I have entered the issue in the bug reporting: https://bugs.oxid-esales.com/view.php?id=2144
