Mambo and G2 embedding

hi valiant, the problem seems to lie with the mirror username. if i click on the gallery without logging in, any of the pics are able to be displayed after clickin on it. but if i logged in as auser, i will get tat error.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: getorderby() in /var/www/html/gallery2/modules/core/classes/helpers/GalleryChildEntityHelper_simple.class on line 480

i really suspect my problem lies in me previosuly renaming some kind of variable in mambo config to get something to work...i remembered it was something like MOS_GALLERY2_PARAMS_PATH. this part is the tricky part. it is not pointing to the correct file MOS_Mambogallery2.....

this is the original error

i renamed the created file mos_gallery2 to mambogallery2 to make it worked...
Table 'mambo.mos_mambogallery2' doesn't exist SQL=UPDATE mos_mambogallery2 SET
value='var/www/html/gallery2/' WHERE field='path'

i see that mysql has Mambo and gallery2 directory residing on /var/lib/mysql
in mambo, there are files with names mos_mambo....
while in gallery2, there are files with names with g2_....

i am wondering about this too...why do users not logged in able to view all the photos as guest. clicking on thumbnails works fine for them...but logged in users are getting tat error!!....

i know the freaking problem now! it must have been something to do with permissions on gallery! i am working on it now..i am logged into mambo as admin n i am able to view gallery pictures....

do i have to create exactly the same username in mambo as in g2? any upper or lower case problem tat i may face?

even on albums i created by myself in g2 gives me this error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: getorderby() in /var/www/html/gallery2/modules/core/classes/helpers/GalleryChildEntityHelper_simple.class on line 480

where is the permissions problem? this is weird....i am pulling out all strands of my hair..why does the admin and guest user does not have any problems when viewing the pics?

i just did a fresh install again. and i am still getiing same error....i did follow your steps correctly. is there any software i can use to view the tables in mysql. like the .frm, .myd and .myi files...

g2 standalone works fine for guest,admin and my user account. weird weird weird.....

it was a brand new table...

I still have the same problem. If I'm logged in as the administrator, no problems, but as soon as I log in as a registered user, after a couple of clicks in the gallery, I end up in the stand alone without getting any error messages. After this I have to log in again as administrator to access the galery.

I have absolutely no idea what's going on. If it's about 'losing session' it for some reason doesn't affect administrator, only the other users.

I have a G2 nightly build from June 6 (haven't changed any of the core files) and mambo 4.5.2.2.

artemido,

I use Mambo 4.5.2 and updated my G2 install to beta3 and never have that problem.

True, there are too many attached files and I don't know a "version" number, if you will.

I have followed this integration development close enough to know that I have all the latest itegration codes except for the last component update that michiel_1981 did including the user backend stuff. I never updated to that.

update:

I've found that the error only occurs when you are logged in. I've duplicated this on two installations (one of which was green field, the only difference being that it's mambo 4.5.2). If you're not logged into mambo and access the Gallery via the mambo integration (shows you as "Guest" and offers up the "Register" link in the top), everything works fine. As soon as you log into mambo, you start getting the error msg (Fatal error: Call to undefined function: getorderby() in /opt/htdocs/ramzvents-com/public/gallery/modules/core/classes/helpers/GalleryChildEntityHelper_simple.class on line 480)

Okay, so here's the really, really odd part... If you are logged into mambo as "admin" you don't see the error. If you are logged into mambo as some other user (even if the user is an administrator in both mambo and g2) that is when you start seeing the errors. Just found the bit about the admin a second ago when I was playing around with a few possible use cases...

more information:

I ran thru the following use case as a user, admin, and guest:

1. access mambo main page
2. log in
3. click on link to embedded gallery
4. open first album
5. click on first picture
6. go to page to execute phpinfo()

In each case, I noticed that the http header data (namely the http_cookie) had some subtle differences.

as user: sessioncookie=4b6c78911a247b1d4c9a820e3ef2b04b; usercookie[username]=username; usercookie[password]=50be3f1e50be3f1e50be3f1e50be3f1e; GALLERYSID_34355e=27031eeebda9ec91801a39f7bfde98f0

as guest: sessioncookie=4b6c78911a247b1d4c9a820e3ef2b04b; GALLERYSID_34355e=bffe0c9d36eef6c250bf0c8de25d05ac

as admin: sessioncookie=4b6c78911a247b1d4c9a820e3ef2b04b; GALLERYSID_34355e=bffe0c9d36eef6c250bf0c8de25d05ac

Also, as guest I noticed that the URL contained an extra parameter tacked onto the end containing the GALLERYSID data where there was none in the other two requests. As stated before the guest and admin users function without difficulty. I scanned thru gallery2.php and noticed that the only portion of code that differentiates between users and guests+admin is below, so something must be happening in this code block that is causing problems with users... I suppose it could be a combination of other bits of code, but I didn't see anything else in the code that would execute for all users whose username != admin.

            if (!empty($my->username) && (strcasecmp($my->username, 'admin')!=0))
            {
                // Check to see if they have an album

                list ($ret, $rootAlbum) = GalleryView::_getItem();
                if ($ret->isError())
                {
                    return 0;
                }

                list ($ret, $childIds) = GalleryCoreApi::fetchChildAlbumItemIds($rootAlbum);
                if ($ret->isError())
                {
                    return 0;
                }
                if (!empty($childIds))
                {
                    list ($ret, $items) = GalleryCoreApi::loadEntitiesById($childIds);
                    if ($ret->isError())
                    {
                        return 0;
                    }

                    $found_album = false;
                    foreach ($items as $child)
                    {
                        if (strcasecmp($child->getTitle(), $my->username)==0)
                        {
                            // Yes, they have an album
                            $found_album = true;
                            break;
                        }
                    }
                    if ($found_album == false)
                    {
                        if ($special_action == 'create_album')
                        {
                            // If they want an album, create one!
                            CreateUserAlbum($my);
                        }
                        else
                        {
                            echo '<p>You currently don't have a photo album, but you're entitled to one. '
                                .'<a href="http://' . $HTTP_HOST . $PHP_SELF . '?' . $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']
                                .'&special_action=create_album' . '">Create my album!</a></p>' . "\n";
                        }
                    }
                }
            }

for those of you not experiencing this error, could you check to see if you have the options for user albums turned on in mambo administrator?

set: config.php, mode.embed.only = false

Thanks for the quick reply.

however, it seems this setting is already set to false!

hello again,
does anybody has an sollution for mine problem

Greets Gette

I finally had the time to do a clean install of gallery (nightly from 16/06) and now, finally, everything works perfetly.

Hi there. I did manage to work around the problem. I installed gallery with the default gallery-2-beta-3 install straight off the gallery download page eg.

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=7130&package_id=124241

and the latest version of the mambo integrations at the time which was something like 2005/04/05.

and that's all!

it appears that something in the newer releases has changed causing it not to work?

hopefully this works for you too.

hello .. running mambo 452 n G2 and G2 alone works fine... embedded no go... the pictures do not show up.. the boxes r there the wording is all there just no pictures

my fullpath to G2 is /var/www/html/gallery2

relative is ../gallery2

it all works fine stand alone...

Hello,
I have the following problem. I use Gallery-Version = 2.0-beta-3+ Kern 0.9.18 and have integrated this in mambo 4.5.2.
Yesterday I tried to update to Kern 0.9.31 the upgrade process was successful but the style was terrible ;)
So I tried to integrate the mtrans theme but I get the following error when I try to enter the theme-change-site in the Site-Administration...

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class matrixtheme in .........\gallery2\themes\mtrans\theme.inc on line 34

I think there are a lot of changes in the gallerycode and the mtrans theme is 3 month old. So I search the forum and find someone with the same error, but he tried to make a new layout and theme and get the error with the layout an not with the theme. Have a look...[SOLVED] Create New Layout & Theme Problem

My question: is the anybode with the same problem or does anyone know how to solve it? :roll:

Another error that appear at the top of the site when I open the gallery in mambo...

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent in .........\mambo\index.php on line 194

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent in .........\mambo\index.php on line 195

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent in .........\mambo\index.php on line 196

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent in .........\mambo\index.php on line 197

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent in .........\mambo\index.php on line 198

At the moment I don not have such errors and the day will come, where I have to update the gallery for security reasons. So please help me and if you have any questions or information please don't hesitate to contact or ask me!

Gallery-Version = 2.0-beta-3+ Kern 0.9.18
PHP-Version = 5.0.4 apache2handler
Webserver = Apache/2.0.53 (Win32) mod_ssl/2.0.53 OpenSSL/0.9.7f PHP/5.0.4 mod_perl/1.999.21 Perl/v5.8.6
Datenbank = mysql 4.1.11-nt
Werkzeuge = Exif, Gd, ImageMagick, Thumbnail, Dcraw, Ffmpeg, NetPBM, ArchiveUpload
Betriebssystem = Windows NT WORKSTATION1 5.1 build 2600
Browser = Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.8 ) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

1. after the upgrade, hit refresh in your browser or clear the browser cache. it shouldn't look bad.

2. old themes / layouts don't work in the new g2 (0.9.30+), the error message seems to indicate that the mtrans theme.inc should rename its class / id.

If anybody is interested, i re-did the mtrans theme so it works in the new beta version.

As a user on my site suggested, I invite you guys to visit my site as a Showcase Mambo and Gallery2 Integration.

Cheers,
