Hello,

I recently upgraded to 1.5.9. Now I am unable to add photos via URL. The popup window appears and reports "Processing '../album-temp/' as a local directory" but no further messaged appear.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Erol,

you entered ../album-temp as URL?

Hello Jens,

My process to add photos is to ftp the photos to a temporary directory, in this case I used "album-temp" Then is the upload via URL form, I enter the relative path to the temp directory.

However I am beginning to think that the root cause is not with Gallery but my file names. I had an apostrophe in the file names. Going to confirm my suspicion later today.

Please use full URLs.
But you are also right ' are not allowed in filenames.
