I'm setting up my first installation of gallery and would like to integrate it with a new Drupal installation. This is a Debian system running PHP 4.3.10. My drupal install can be found at :

http://photo.freecharity.org.uk/

and my gallery install can be found at :

http://photo.freecharity.org.uk/gallery2/main.php

Following the links through Drupal and into the gallery something appears to be wrong. The link activated by clicking upon the image dsc_2829.jpg takes me to http://photo.freecharity.org.uk/v/dsc_2892.jpg.html which presents an error and not the page I'd expect.

I'm sure I've done something wrong with the .htaccess files and redirection but I can't place my finger on it. I've followed the troubleshooting instructions for this problem at http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/Gallery2:How_to_Embed_Gallery2_in_Drupal but with no luck. Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance,

James

I'm downloading and will be installing today. Same installs as you. If I find a similar problem/solution, I will let you know.

Take Care, Sharon

Okay, I did it and got exactly the same results you did. Actually, for me the clickable link that is created is:
http://gates-chili-high.rare-cancer.org/v/me.JPG.html

And that URL gives an error, of course.

If I go into Gallery itself, the clickable link is:
http://gates-chili-high.rare-cancer.org/photo/v/me.JPG.html

The inner directory - photo - is missing within Drupal. 'Photo' is my G2 directory.

This could be the Drupal module or it could be the rewrite generation in G2. I have to look at it a little more.

Take Care, Sharon

Nope, they are definitely not playing well together. I chuckle, because when I look through the posts here, this was tested but not with the last two versions.

I have Drupal 4.7.2
Gallery 2.1.1a

I have chmodded (to 666) and installed .htaccess files in every directory that has anything to do with Gallery on Drupal and G2. When I go to the Drupal Gallery screens and choose the Site Admin link (upper right), then choose URL Rewrite link (left column), then click on the 'test tab' (upper right), I get this error message under the 'Embedded .htaccess file" section:

Quote:
Embedded .htaccess file Error
Testing if Gallery can write to the embedded .htaccess file.

Please configure the embedded htaccess path.

This is being output by G2 in modules/rewrite/templates/ModRewriteTestResults.tpl:

Quote:
<td style="float: right; vertical-align: top;">
{if $TestResults.embedded.htaccess == REWRITE_STATUS_OK}
<h2 class="giSuccess"> {g->text text="Success"} </h2>
{else}
<h2 class="giError"> {g->text text="Error"} </h2>
{/if}
</td>
{if $TestResults.embedded.htaccess != REWRITE_STATUS_OK}
</tr><tr>
{if $TestResults.embedded.htaccessPath == '/.htaccess'}
<td>
<div class="gbBlock">
<p class="giDescription">
{g->text text="Please configure the embedded htaccess path."}
</p>
</div>
</td>

I am not sure which .htaccess G2 is checking at this point, but it must be coming from G2 because that is where the error message is being outputted from.

It is 3 a.m. and I have been beating this problem to death. I have tried everything I can, from a user point of view. They just do not work together. I can get one side, or the other, working. But, never together. Frustrating! I have tried everything in the documentation, and in the forums here and on Drupal. Still sitting at 'square one'. Maybe I'll just run it un-embedded.

Take Care, Sharon

I think my friend has managd to fix it. In the URL rewrite settings in Gallery he changed the htaccess path to /home/james/photo which is where my Drupal install resides.

I don't think that I can compare my settings to yours. I realized that you are running your website through a subdomain. It would be like comparing apples and oranges. Thanks and take care, Sharon
