I'm using the lastest version of gallery remote(downloaded today, with java vm) it seems to work good for most things but the problem I have is when I try to create a new album, I can't select the "Gallery Main Page", so I can only create subfolders.

Is this a bug? or am I doing something wrong? or not set up correctly?

thanks,
joel

alright, I've solved the problem by looking around cvs and seeing that one of the updates solved this problem, so I upgraded to the "bleeding edge" version, and now selecting the gallery main page as parent works fine.

I noticed though that in this version(and also 1.0) that if the gallery main page is empty(no albums) that the new album button is greyed out, and an album has to be created using the online interface, before the button is selectable. Of course 99.99% of the time, someone will have created an album using the online interface, before even using gallery remote, so its not really a huge deal.

I'm using Gallery Remote 1.1b14 running on MacOSX 10.2.6 to talk to Gallery 1.3.4-pl1.

when I log into the Gallery via the web interface, as my non-admin user (with permissions set to create albums->yes, admin->no), I can create an album in the parent directory with no problem.

when I do this via Gallery Remote, I get the following:

I see that joel558 voiced this same problem back in April, and said that there was a fix in the CVS tree. I assume that by the releases I'm using that this fix would have been merged, so I'm thinking that this is a new problem, or perhaps I'm wrong about the merge

Help?

thanks.

(yes, I can go and create an album online, then upload using GR, but since I should be able to do this, I'd like to figure out what's going on)

tcbeatie, can you attach a more complete log, which includes the part where GR fetches the list of albums and permissions? That will let me determine what I'm doing wrong when comparing perms.

Just to clarify, when tcbeatie writes about the "parent" directory, he means the Gallery root (where there can be only albums, no pictures).

did this ever get resolved? I am having the same problem using the latest nightly (remote). Do I need to upgrade the server side to correct this?
