Discussion & Troubleshooting / thumbnailer error(s)
« on: June 18, 2003, 09:20:30 PM »
A while ago, I set up a 4images gallery on my domain. It worked perfectly. Then my host moved the server that the domain was on. And they wouldn't disable the exec() function. So, I got a new domain, at a new host.

Now, I have my arena finally installed and it works pretty good... and after doing everything to bypass safe mode I can finally make categories and upload images.

But..

The first problem is that even though I have netpbm and image magik installed at my domain, images still upload without a thumbnail. I've tried both thumbnailers. So, that brings me to my second problem. I go to auto-thumbnailer, and I get as far as the screen where it displays all of the missing thumbnails. Then I click on "create thumbnails" and I get a simple error of: "Error creating thumbnail!"

I looked around everywhere at these forums for a solution. So far everything suggested for similar problems hasn't worked. I tried doing the think with commenting out some things in image_utils.php that V@no suggested for image magik but that created more errors. I checked all file permissions and paths, everything is correct. I tried re-uploading netpbm but that didn't change anything.

I really need some help, I'm going to go absolutely nuts if my thumbnails don't work. And I refuse to resort to GD


Oh, and to see the php info stuff, go here: http://www.tikki-fish.net/phpinfo.php I don't know if that helps or anything?

Same for me too. All works, except when I try to upload a picture. All chmod's are set to 777 ... and even with this mod, I get the message:

Warning: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 636 is not allowed to access /home/www/web1/html/galerie/data/media/1 owned by uid 30 in /home/www/web1/html/galerie/includes/upload.php on line 114

Not funny ...


I get the same exact thing :( ... and I'm getting really frustrated over here...

sigh. my hosts will not enable it either. Is there anything that can be done to have it work without it?

Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / Picture Awards
« on: May 26, 2003, 02:27:59 AM »
Hiya, I am interested in adding an "awards" type feature to my gallery.

I would like to use this:
http://www.4homepages.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5679

Where the image is displayed in two categories (after "marking" it)... How do I get the category to display only the "marked" images? (Can you please explain how to do this straight forwardly?)

Also, I would like to be able, to award the "title" (example: 1st, 2nd, 3rd)... possibly as a little menu that would show up on each image editing page (the "edit" image page thing for administrators), where I can select (by radio buttons or drop down menu) in what award to give to it. After doing that, the title I award it would show up on the image details page for everyone to see, then depending on what I title, it would be put into the proper category.

To help explain, here is an example of what I'm talking about:

First, let's say I had 4 pictures: "Dog", "Cat", "Fish", and "Bird"
I decide I want to award "Cat" 1st. So, I click on the thumbnail to go to the image detail page (as normal), click on "[Edit]", and select the award 1st. Now, "Cat" will display the word "1st" on the image detail page, and the "Cat" picture will be also displayed in the "Winners" category. Now I want to give "Dog" 2nd. So I do the same thing, but instead of being put into the "Winners" category, I want it put into the "2nd Winners" category.

Can anyone help me do this? Thank you so much :D
