Swerts-knudsen Gallery on SME 6.0.1
« on: February 24, 2005, 09:33:52 PM »
Having a problem with Gallery.

installs and operates just fine until I upload some photos. The thumbnails never show, neither do the actual pictures.

Have been thru the documentation several times, have installed this app on several servers all fail to show the thumbnails and photos....

All else runs fine, administration etc....

I'm sure it's something simple I'm missing.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated...

Did you also look at the Gallery webpage. I have always found the solution there in the FAQ.

You've got to make sure that the file paths & url's on the Locations and URLs tab (Gallery Configuration Wizard: Step 2) are correct.  I know it sounds stupid but you may have to edit these to suit your environment.

for example - you've called your ibay 'gallery'.
the Album directory would be
Code: [Select]
/home/e-smith/files/ibays/gallery/html/albums
the Temporary directory (which you need to create if it's not already there) would be
Code: [Select]
/home/e-smith/files/ibays/gallery/html/<Name of Temp Folder>
the Gallery URL would be
Code: [Select]
http://<Domain name>/gallery
the Albums URL (which I find needs changing most) would be
Code: [Select]
http://<Domain name>/gallery/albums

Don't forget to run
Code: [Select]
chown -R www:www . in the gallery directory before you do anything then run the secure.sh script when you've finished
