I've searched the Mailing List & FAQ as much as I can. I've checked the permissions as much as possible (I only have FTP access), but still can't figure it out. I can view the gallery just fine, but can't upload images. I put the gallery in debug mode and it returned the following: Quote:
Processing status... I've had it running on 3 other servers (2 at my current host) so this isn't my first attempt. It was however just moved to a new server. They just turned Safe Mode off which got me a little further, but still to no avail. I re-downloaded the netpbm binaries (I got the redhat ones) and uploaded them but that didn't change the error message. Here's some additional info: Quote:
PHP Version 4.1.1 My site is at <!-- BBCode Start --><A HREF="http://www.themintonfamily.com/galleries" TARGET="_blank">Gallery Link</A><!-- BBCode End --> Let me know if there is anything else you need to help me out. Thanks in advance, Bill |

Greetings Bill,
I've visited your website and found some dead link when I visited one of your album. To correct this, SSH to your host.
Go to your gallery path ... /var/www/albums
chmod -R 777 *
this will correct invalid links and might resolve the other issue too.

Thanks for the reply!
With FTP access, all I can do is highlight all the folders under the album folder and chmod them. They are all currently set to 777 so is that all I can do?

BTW, could you post the dead link so I could check it out? I haven't found any as of yet.
Thanks again.

This is FAQ C.19, pretty much verbatim.

That did it, thank you. Sorry for the trouble.

That FAQ is not working for me and rather than start another topic of the same subject, I thought I would just post here. I am having the same problem uploading images or even trying to get them from URL. Here is my Debug mode message when uploading files.
Processing status...
- Adding reverie.jpg
Executing:
/www/f/fastacs/htdocs/test/netpbm/jpegtopnm /www/f/fastacs/htdocs/test/albums/phpBBtoNuke-Themes/reverie.jpg | /www/f/fastacs/htdocs/test/netpbm/pnmfile --allimages
Results:
none
Error messages:
Abort trap
Abort trap
Status: 134 (expected 0)
Error: Invalid image: reverie.jpg!
I've tried on page 2 of the config wizard, where it says "(advanced) Expected status", changing the value there from -1 (or 127) to 0., to no avail. I even tried 134 since that is what it is specifying for some reason. I even tried every number from -1 to 89, but got tired :sad:
I still cannot upload images.

Mike, your problem is unrelated to BillyMinton's. In his case, the binaries were working properly but he had a bogus expected return code. In your case, the binaries are not working properly.
You should read FAQ C.2 (or do a site-wide search for "abort trap") to learn how to fix your problem.

Thank you for your speedy reply. You were right, I apparently am using the wrong ntpbm files for my OS. Forgive me for not reading the FAQ more closely.
However, I do still have a problem and it may be a stupidity factor on my part. I checked my site's OS and here it is.
The site http://www.mbdc.net <http://www.mbdc.net> is running Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) FrontPage/5.0.2.2510 mod_ssl/2.8.9 OpenSSL/0.9.6g on unknown.
Now, I d/l'd and installed the netpbm1.1-gallery1.0-linux2.2-redhat6.2-intel.tgz version and it didn't work. I wonder which other one I should try?
netpbm1.1-gallery1.0-macosx10.1-ppc.tgz
netpbm1.1-gallery1.0-solaris2.8-intel.tgz
netpbm1.1-gallery1.0-solaris2.8-sparc.tgz
netpbm1.1-gallery1.0-win32.tgz
I'm soo confused. :roll:

Hmm, well, using nmap, it reports your webhost as using
FreeBSD as it's best guess. Not sure how portable linux binaries
are to a *bsd flavour as I've never tried it.
If you have shell access, try running the command 'uname -a' to find
out for sure, or ask the sysadmin. Perhaps they will even be kind enough
to compile or install appropriate binaries for you.

As Netcraft obviously cannot tell you what OS your server is running, ask your ISP / hoster yourself. They should know it. And then decide which NetPBM distribution is OK for you.

Well, I am baffeled.
I got fed-up last night and this morning..but all is well... :roll:
I found out my server is running FreeBSD, so I uploaded the binaries for that OS. I got a little further, I could upload images, but they were not showing up, just blank. I finally re-did EVERYTHING this morning. Re-uplaoded all files, and basically started from scratch and lo-behold, it is all working. I think in the process of not getting it right the first time, I may have taken an unknown step in trying to correct the problem, which I must have somehow implemented the second time I did the install.
If I figure out where I made my error, I will be sure to post the solution back here....
Thank you for all your help!!
