Hi Gallery users,

I have a problem at the basic installation step. Could you help in my installation and configuration?
I could collect the following information for my system.

I am installing in Fedora linux x86_64.
PHP 5.3.3
Mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.55 using readline 5.1
Browser Firefox 4.0
Apache 2.0

My browser is using secure https port.

I could run the install script from, /gallery3/installer and followed the instructions. This is what is got, telling the installation was successful. However, when I click the link, "Start using Gallery", I get to a page, which looks like a dead-end (see below). I find no way to configure, the configuration script is supposed to start automatically, as is mentioned in the documentation. There is a login, but I don't know login details for admin.

Is this problem because I am using https instead of http? or is this issue something else. Any help is very much appreciated.

Post a screenshot of what you're seeing. It's looking like your server is blocking G3 from creating the combined CSS and JS files or preventing it from serving them up. I bet if you look at the source code of the page and try to load the URL for either the combined CSS or JS files that you'll get a 404 page...

Check your server's error logs.

Oh and if you have stuff like mod_security and/or suhosin for PHP installed, try disabling them to see if that's the problem.

Hi Thanks for the replies.
I was looking at the FAQ's and found some configuration changes in php.ini (short_open_tag = 1). I made them. Now I can see the Tabs.
However, some of the dialog boxes seem to not work correctly. For example, I am attaching a screen shot of 'Add Photos'. There is nothing displayed except 'select photos'. Nothing happens even if I click it.
I tried the 'Server Add' feature. Probably it is also not working right (screenshot-1). I could somehow add a photo by double clicking on it. But the thumbnail is not visible.
I hope this is related to some settings. What I am missing?

One more query: Is there a way non-admin users can upload photos? How to enable it?

There there is something wrong on your local computer because that's all happening within your browser using Flash.

Post a link to phpinfo to start with:
FAQ: How do I create a phpinfo page?

Album options > Edit permissions

Permissions in G3 (at least for right now) can only be applied to Groups, so you'll need to create a group and add users to groups under Admin > Users/Groups
