[Solved] server_add problem with fresh installation

Hi,

I somehow managed to botch up my gallery installation and I'm starting fresh. I have about 75 albums and >10000 pictures I have to readd. I started using the server add module but I'm running into a lot of issues.

I have a folder structure already set up for import. I checked to make sure that none of the folders or images started with album, admin and other names mentioned in the forum elsewhere. I forced 777 on the permissions to make sure it's not a permissions problem.

To experiment, I started off with a really small directory (about 15 pictures). server_add just hangs. Here's what the table lists (even after half an hour):

mysql> select * from g3_server_add_entries;

Here's the only thing in the logs:

<?php defined('SYSPATH') or die('No direct script access.'); ?>
2014-03-03 02:19:34 +11:00 --- error: date.timezone setting not detected in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini falling back to UTC.  Consult http://php.net/manual/function.get-cfg-var.php for help.

Can someone help me with what my next steps are to troubleshoot this issue?

Attached is my phpinfo.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Dave,

Sorry, I just saw this post. It looks like one of the plugins I had (don't know which one) was causing an issue. I was able to add a single item at a time without any issues. I was trying smaller folders and that did not help either.

I just ended up getting the latest and only added the default plugins. That seemed to work.

Thanks,
MT
