Thumbnail Problem In 4Images
« on: March 21, 2003, 08:11:23 PM »
Hi folks,

I need help on this if you be kind to help me:

I installed 4Images. My site is hosted on Linux FreeBSD box. I downloaded NetPBM and extract it to my user folder. I make the settings to point to that directory form 4Images. But I'm always getting "NetPBM is not installed or wrong path" error. I'm sure I have downloaded the right version and my path is correct. Do you have any idea what's wrong with it?
Does it has to be installed by my host company?

Help me please  :oops:

I had this problem..

It's because I had "home/usr/public..."  
You have to add a "/" in front of home..

So.. "/home/usr/public..."

Is the netpbm directory CHMOD 777??
Also, all files inside the netpbm folder?

All of a sudden I get the following error when trying to auto-thumbnail


GD library error.
Check module settings.

Autothumbnail just stopped working today. I haven't made any changes at all.  I tried to seach for the above patch that you mention settings.php but it seems like trying to find anything on this site is the proverbial needle in a haystack.
