Hi,

Somebody knows how to install Gallery 1.2 on a SME 5.1.2 server.

Greetings, Jan-Willem.

[Dan Brown]

Was that a statement or a question?  If the former, I don't see how the URL you posted supports it.  If the latter, yes, I do, and I wrote a HOWTO about it.  It's a little outdated (I'd definitely download the 1.2.5 tarball instead of the 1.1 one I have linked from there), but it should still work.

Yeah, I know I really need to get around to updating it...

Hi Dan,

It was a question. I thought the URL would give some usefull information
So, I can use your HOWTO for E-Smith 4.1.2 on my SME 5.1.2 server?

Greetingz, Jan-Willem.

[Dan Brown]

Yeah, the howto should work in general.  I followed it when my server was running 4.1.2, and it's stayed working through the upgrade to 5.0 and then to 5.1.2, FWIW...

[Jan-Willem]

Thankz Dan.

I followed Dan's HowTo using 5.1.2, it works great!

[Dan Brown]

I've updated my HOWTO to specifically address 5.1.2.

I tried installing gallery following Dan's Howto but was unable to make it work properly   I am able to create albums and upload pictures.  However, the pictures are not being displayed correctly.  Instead of seeing the pictures, I get a blank box with the broken link symbol.

Any idea's??

I'm using SME 5.1.2 w/update1 - IMP3.0 Upgrade - Gallery 1.2.5

hi guys
not strictly on topic but anyway ...
I'm a big fan of Gallery and I'm currently looking into modifying it a liitle.

I'd like to add the ability to upload a few extra file types - .doc .xls .pdf .mp3 etc...

This is really quite easy to do but what's a little trickier for a php novice like me is to make the script display a different icon depending upon the file type. I know that the work for this is allmost done as you get a movie camera thumbnail for .mov .mpg etc..

I run a small IT company so if anyone fancys doing this in exchange for a bit of hardware or whatever do get in touch.

All the best,
Julian

Great work all works fine, great Howto, Only one little problem

If login to upload a jpg or gif or an mpg; this happen--->
Processing status...
No images uploaded!

same if i use the zip or ftp ???

Disabled PHP upload  (as a temporary fix as recomended by Mitel) or disabled cookies in your browser?

[Dan Brown]

Allen, I really don't have any idea; it works fine for me.  Maybe a post to the gallery-users list would help.

[Allen Miller]

Thanks everyone for your help.  I took Dan’s advice and headed over to the Gallery site and searched their archive’s.  They have a ton of useful information.  If anyone every has a problem with gallery, I would suggest checking out their achieves.  In my case it turned out that the setup file was improperly configured.  The following is an taken from the gallery mailing list.

From your debug data I can see that Gallery is processing
your images correctly.  My guess is that you're seeing
the broken image icon in your web browser.  

This is asked often enough that I'm amazed that it wasn't
in the FAQ.  (it is now, FAQ 4.25).  

Q: I can successfully upload photos, but when I look in my
   album all I see are broken image icons. Why?

A: You've specified an incorrect path to your albums directory
   in the config wizard. You can fix this by re-running the
   config wizard and correcting the Albums URL value or you can
   edit the config.php file and fix the
   $gallery->app->albumDirURL variable.

I also noticed that you're getting this error with jhead.
I believe this is because you're running the wrong version
of jhead for your platform.  Try running "/usr/bin/jhead"
from a shell prompt and see if it works for you.  If not,
replace jhead and try again.

Hello,

I am trying to install gallery but I get an error.

could someone help

Thanks

The error I get is.
syntax error on line 2772 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
Addtype Requires at least two argument, a mime type followes by on or more file extensions.

Is this because I named the jhead.html to jhead ?
or do I have a type-O?

Now my web site is down!

This is the 93gallery file

    There's your problem.  There were spaces in the HOWTO for a reason.
