I have had this working and recently had to deny because of excessive traffic.... I denied the site the ability to redirect to itself apparently...LOL

It has eliminated my max mysql requests problem with postnuke and that is now solved... but now My random block won't work...

is the code not clean? is it getting into a constant loop of some sort?

It had approximately 30k hits from itself with merely 1300 visitors so far... wtf.. what have I done...

Using Postnuke 761
gallery 1.5.1
Pnphpbb2 12g + patches
Ipower Hosting (yeah I know Ipower isn't the best)
www.oceanodunes.org
let me know what you think of the error when inside the gallery or forums... it doesn't error on the index only inside the site... Like here http://oceanodunes.org/beta/index.php?name=Gallery&include=albums.php

My exact code below (what am I doing incorrectly? - Hid the URL but not like its rocket science)

if (pnModAvailable('Gallery'))
        include("http://xxx.url.xxx/modules.php?op=modload&name=Gallery&file=index&include=block-random.php");
else
        echo ' ';

can this be a direct link to the block-random.php? Like Below?

if (pnModAvailable('Gallery'))
        include("/modules/Gallery/block-random.php");
else
        echo ' ';

just tested... Nope won't work...
http://beta.food.ods.org this is just my proving ground for my server...

I seems that this script is causing 3-10 Hits per hit on my webpage... My host is shutting down access to Mysql for too many requests because the site is going over the 50k per hour. I have to go in and delete the Mysql user and re-add it.. then it resets the counter and the page is again accessible..

The site in question is http://www.oceanodunes.org this is the live site...

Hmm.. Is it fixed already?

Because I had the same problems at my site (vakantie), so I changed the whole site, no gallery anymore..

same applies for me, also changed my site (vakanties) now and no gallery anymore. Still want to get it back in the future so hope someone can fix this. )
