Hi,

Whenever I try to do something like upload photos, I just get an empty progress bar and nothing happens. I don't know what is wrong, it was working fine and now it isn't and nothing changed. I am hosting on Network Solutions. Here are my php settings:

PHP Version 5.3.8

Greg, please don't paste 3800 lines of anything on any forum ever again( you know how long I have to scroll on my phone? ). Copy to a txt file and attach it instead.

Looks like your host upgraded php to the latest, have you upgraded gallery to the latest?

FAQ: What information is required when I ask for help in the forums?

Sorry about that. I upgraded to the newest version and the upgrade said successful but when I try to upload any picture it just sits on Processing items indefinitely. I did notice one error message during the upgrade that mentioned progress bar. I don't know with Network Solutions how to override their default exec() and Output buffering global defaults.

Thanks for your help.

exec() allowed Warning
Warning: The exec() function is disabled in your PHP by the disabled_functions parameter in php.ini. You won't be able to use modules that require external binaries (e.g. ImageMagick, NetPBM or Ffmpeg). This can only be set server-wide, so you will need to change it in the global php.ini.

Output buffering disabled Warning
Warning: Output buffering is enabled in your PHP by the output_buffering parameter(s) in php.ini. Gallery can function with this setting - downloading files is even faster - but Gallery might be unable to serve large files (e.g. large videos) and run into the memory limit. Also, some features like the progress bars might not work correctly if output buffering is enabled unless ini_set() is allowed.

NetSol is not a good host, I'd consider switching if you can.

Make sure your default graphics library is set to GD in gallery admin -> Graphics Toolkits -> Toolkit Priority ( you will only see this if other toolkits are active )

Edit gallery2/config.php add a line just below line 28 @ini_set('display_errors', 0);
add: @ini_set('output_buffering', '');
