Title: Having some problems, getting an error when validating?
Post by: SLAYER6669 on January 10, 2003, 12:24:07 AM

The error I'm getting when I try to validate an image is this:

Warning: Unable to create './../data/media/1/5.jpg': Permission denied in /home/slayer6669/www/4images/admin/admin_functions.php on line 111
Error adding image: The Z (5.jpg)


Another error I'm getting when I tried to resize an image via netpbm is:
Convert image file: RearStraight.jpg (640x480) ....  
Warning: rename() failed (Permission denied) in /home/slayer6669/www/4images/includes/image_utils.php on line 166

Looks like a bunch of permissions problems .. I did chmod all the required directories and files listed in the installation doc to 777.. Any help is appreciated!

Ok fixed that problem then.. Now I'm having auto thumbnail problems and I have searched and cannot find the answer.. I click to auto thumbnail, it says files created, and they are.. Everything shows up and a broken red x, i looked in the directory for the thumbnails and all the files have 0 kb? Hopefully I didnt miss the answer if it was right in front of my face again  :D  Thanks

Nope I haven't, I would prefer to use netpbm since its installed on the server.. I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work ? Anyone else have any idea's?  :(

v@no was probably asking about GD/Imagemagik to see if the thumbnailer worked at all.

Well looks like Imagemagick is infact installed on the server so I tried it and it works, I guess maybe something is wrong with NetPBM on the server since the files were coming up empty.. although I don't know how much I like the thumbnail quality from imagemagick.. As you can see here the difference between my fireworks thumbnail and the imagicmagick one.. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to expect on the quality from these programs as I've never used them before.. I did use 100 on the quality with imagemagick..

I dont know why in 4images script uses -sample command for ImageMagick:
http://4homepages.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2893
so, try this:
open /includes/image_utils.php find:

Code: [Select]

 $command = $convert_options['convert_path']." -quality ".$quality." -antialias -sample $width"."x"."$height \"$src\" \"$dest\""; change to this:

Code: [Select]

 $command = $convert_options['convert_path']." -quality ".$quality." -antialias -geometry $width"."x"."$height \"$src\" \"$dest\"";

but, anyway, I think that create thumbnails with some program is better for two reasons:
1. better quality
2. smaller file size
after I start using ACDSee to create thumbnails, my /media/thumbnails/ folder become smaller in about 1/4 of what it was before.
