Hi,

So has anybody tested gallery 2 with safe_mode on and having trouble using gallery? What other major bugs are still in version 2?

Thanks.,

Yes I saw that before, but it didn't really state whether someone really tested it with Safe_mode disabled.

So has anybody tested it out yet (with Gallery 2.0)?

Thanks.

You really can't. As of right now, Gallery 2 requires the right to execute external programs -- something safe mode disables. That's the major reason why safe mode is messing Gallery up (yes, there are others, but more easily solved than this one)..

Rather than wait for G2 and have the odds highly in favor of your being disappointed, start hunting for a new web host now!! :smile: That other thread has all the arguments you need for why you shouldn't waste your time with any host running Safe Mode.

Your host can specify this in the httpd.conf. All they need to do is place this inside your personal <VirtualHost>:

php_admin_value safe_mode off

Simple dimple.
