I'm running 2 different galleries @ 2 different places

This weekend I was installing a Linux Mandrake 8.2 machine with PHP support etc.
All was working, Gallery installation: flawlessly
/usr/bin about the NETPBM: no problems found by gallery.

Than I tried to upload images: errors .. errors errors.
Debug ..

Something about the NETPBM gallery. Okay no problem. I copy the files from my working gallery. (not /usr/bin, but in the root of my webserver)
than again an error: no such file .. ???

Looking and I found that ppmtojpeg had to be renamed to pnmtojpeg ??

after I changed the filename: it was actually working at my server ???

Anyone any idea how this problem could / can occur?

Without the error messages themselves, it's hard to tell.
But it looks like your original install found the ppmtojpeg binary
and configured it thusly, then when you switched to the other ones,
it had the older pnmtojpeg (before they renamed it) binary, but you
probably didn't re-run the configuration so it didn't pick up the change.

you could have changed the setting in config.php manually or re-run
the config and you probably wouldn't have needed to rename the file.
