Hi:

I installed gallery 1.5.
when you access the gallery, everything looks fine, but when you click on an album, it says:

Not Found
The requested URL /wrap4asmile.org/gallery/view_album.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache Server at wrap4asmile.org Port 80

What did I do wrong?

I checked on the remote side of the server and the view_album.php is there.

The URL is http://wrap4asmile.org/gallery

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks.

Gallery1 is very old. The last time its code was updated was 11/2008 and was likely just a security update.
Gallery3 would be more suitable for today's hosting environments, And is a direct replacement for Gallery1 - I suggest you give it a try instead.

The problem is that for Gallery 3, you would need to have a working gallery and only then, you can import it. I tried that before.
I was able to move a number of galleries from an older version 1.x to 1.5 without too much trouble so I was hoping I could do the same here...

make sure the filesystem permissions on view_album.php are at least 644

Hey Sylvie.

it might be, that the redirect feature is broken.
Do you have access to the webspace and could modify files?

I changed the permissions of this file to 644, but it didn't help.
I still get:

The requested URL /wrap4asmile.org/gallery/view_album.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I'm very frustrated since I now the same problem in 4 galleries. and one was working before..
I have one gallery under the root, which is working.
The 4 other galleries are in subfolders and are not working.
What could be the problem?
I reuploaded everything from the working gallery to one that is in a subfolder (except for the config file and .htaccess.
To no avail...

Hello,

There is a config.php. Please open it, there a so called "rewrite" feature. Set this to 0.

Does this help?
