to the community,
for the ease of installation a rpm package of Gallery2 for the SME Server 7.x is available at http://wiki.contribs.org/Gallery2.
This package installs the gallery 2 photo and video gallery system into /opt.
You can start it with your browser with the URL http://MYSERVER/gallery2.
Rgds.,
Dietmar

it's in /opt/gallery2

I'm going to try this rpm. There was already a package with .sh scripts to install gallery, but I did not like it. Curious for this one :)

Tested it and works great. Thanx Berdie!

Tested flawless install and runs perfectly txs for the contrib!

I tested this and it works beautifully.
Thank you for packaging it all and creating a very simple utility.
There is one issue, however, and it pertains to the security of the g2data directory. The devs at Gallery are very clear the g2data directory should be in other then the document root for security reasons.
Have you considered this issue? Perhaps you could change the package to install the g2data directory somewhere else on the server?
thanks

Thanks for your comments.

This should not be an issue. The g2data directory is not in the tree, it has in fact his own document root and this is not within the /opt/gallery2/html directory.
Additionally to this the template has the line
php_admin_value open_basedir /opt/gallery2/html/:/opt/gallery2/g2data/
for security reasons.

Well devised, berdie.
Thank you for the reply.
Might I ask where two specific modules install? Using the Gallery GUI, I cannot locate the paths to dcraw or ffmpeg. I have installed them, and when attempting to configure they cannot be found.
Imagemagick installs into /usr/bin. But not these other two.
Any pointers?
thank you.
regards,
patrick

You can download the necessary files from
http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/dberteld/gallery2/rpms
to a tmp install directory. Fore installation type yum localinstall *.rpm
from this directory.
I've successful tested ffmeg, ImageMagick and NetPBM.
Rgds.

After the install Gallery2 from http://wiki.contribs.org/Gallery2 and change the admin-password. Everything is working fine. Thanks for the fine contrib..
But I have noticed that the http://web.site/gallery2/upgrade still had the password admin.
How can I change that because I don’t want that someone ells can upgrade my gallery2 software. And how and ware can I change it.
I hope someone can help my, I’m not so very good in Linux. Still a beginner.
Thanks

Thanks for your comment.
You should change the rights for the "upgrade"-folder as follows:
Login to your server as user "root" and hit the command chmod -R 640 /opt/gallery2/html/upgrade
I will upload a new version without this "bug" soon.

I noticed that many of the addon contribution like Joomla and Gallery2 always make the following url
www.websiite.com/joomla/ or www.websiite.com/gallery2/ is it possible to make the installs without these directory structures.
I would like to choose my own name. Not everybody has to see that i use joomla or some other addon.
Please help

You can probably do so manually, by modifying the template fragments, but as packages/contribs install automatically without user interaction it is not possible to have the user input a preference, unfortunately.

I have all my pics in an ibay at the moment, and I do not want to move/duplicate them if possible. So my question is, is it possible to create a symlink to the ibay, or do I need to duplicate all the pictures?

Yes you can, if you go to the 'Add items' option, there should be an option called 'From server', if you have properly configured your server, you should be able to access the location which stores holds your files. Before adding them be sure to check the 'Use symlink' option.
You might run into the PHP basedir restriction, which you could solve by means of the wiki..
