A little background information:
I changed host, from Datacities to Godaddy. Moved everything, edited the config.php so it would work on the new server. But, GoDaddy doesn't support the NetBPM I used with Datacities. But they do supply an on the fly installation of G2, which uses GD image toolkit. So far so good.

I installed G2, on http://gallery.olafonline.be, which is a copy of http://gallery.server8.org. No problems there. But with http://mobile.olafonline.be (copy of http://treo.server8.org) I do get problems.

All the images are posted via Site Admin -> Gallery 1 -> Import from Gallery 1. 2004/February went well, except it stopped between image 330 and 336. I uploaded the rest manually. No problems with 2005. But 2006 at the other hand gave problems with the album september. http://mobile.olafonline.be/main.php?g2_itemId=13582

Almost no images work, and why some do work and some not...? I don't have a clue. Can't be the file size, the images at http://gallery.olafonline.be are much bigger and uploaded the same way.

Any ideas?

I assume you have uninstalled the netpbm module in your G2 after moving to the new server. Else G2 is not aware that netobm support is missing.

I also assume adding new items through the "add items" methods works perfectly. So only import from G1 seems to be a problem.

Are these assumptions correct?

On the old server I only had G1. The G2 on the new server is a new installation, automatic via a GoDaddy service.
G2 is aware it doesn't have NetBPM, only GD.

Adding new items via 'add items' works just as crappy. Image is uploaded, but no thumbnail. It can't be the image size, because adding items via http://eos.olafonline.be works fine, and they are a lot larger.

Thanks!

Okay, I'm lost.

Uploaded two albums, from the same location.
http://mobile.olafonline.be/main.php?g2_itemId=13915 (almost all broken)
http://mobile.olafonline.be/main.php?g2_itemId=14048 (almost all okay)

What am I missing here? :\

Looks like GD isn't working reliably for you...
Usually we'd suggest using netpbm or imagemagick if there are problems with GD on a specific server...
FAQ: Thumbnails / resized images don't get generated properly, how can it be fixed?
