magento catalog:image:resize -> placeholder/small_image.jpg not existing?

[emile_rdam]

Upgraded to 2.2.6 from 2.2.5

As advised on release notes I removed content of pub/media/catalog/product/cache

Then ran command: bin/magento catalog:image:resize 

That went well for 792 of 21162 (3%). Then it gives error

"public_html/pub/media/home2/staging/public_html/vendor/magento/module-catalog/view/base/web/images/product/placeholder/small_image.jpg' does not exist. "

The image is there ofcourse.
Tried several rights.

Any sugestions? Thank you.

Hello @emile_rdam

Issue seems to be the permission issue, please check all file permission for magento

Hello @emile_rdam

First remove "Magento Root\pub\media\catalog\product\cache" folder.
Then run above command.
