Topic: Installing XoopsGallery into Xoops

[pwalter]

I am trying to install Xoops and the XoopsGallery module into an ibay. The instructions for Xoops indicate that either the NetPBM or ImageMagick libraries are required.

For an installation on SME, is it better to use NetPBM, or ImageMagick?

I would appreciate very much instructions on how to install either one into SME for use with Xoops/XoopsGallery.

Thanks,

Peter

I am not running Xoops BUT I needed netpbm for Gallery.

I think you can find netpbm rpms in DanBrowns contrib directory.

Download them from
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/e-smith/contrib/DanBrown/RPMS/i386/

netpbm-progs-9.24-9.73.2.i386.rpm
netpbm-9.24-9.73.2.i386.rpm

and install them with

#rpm -ivh netpbm*

Good luck...

Thanks to erogzd for the instructions. Note: the netpbm rpms also required libtiff-3.5.7-2.i386.rpm, which I found on www.rpmfind.net.

You can find the  libtiff rpm in Dan Brown's contrib area.

I just installed xoopsgallery but can't create new albums. I click on the <new album> link and get nothing.
Any ideas?

It is hard to guess with so less information. It might be your tmp directory which is not valid and/or have wrong permissions.

If you already didn't read following howto
http://www.familybrown.org/howtos/gallery-howto.html

If that doesn't help can you check your
/var/log/messages and /var/log/httpd/error_log and tell us what messages you get.

Good luck.
