h0bbel, but when the path is wrong the configuration wizard tells me an error and I can´t finish! is this true?

I set my permissions from the netpbm or Imagemagick folder to 755.

what means Status: 127 ???

Have I contract my web server to solve the problem???

What does home/gallery/image/ contain, and what are the permissions set on the files AND folder?

home/gallery/image/ contains imagemagick
permissions on the folders are 755 and on the files 644, but I set it also 755 and the same error appears!

You have the windows binaries! Not the proper ones I gather?

Alright, I've literally spent hours today trying to debug this upload hang/cmd.exe failing to close problem. As stated in a previous post, I am running XP Pro + Apache 2.0.48 + PHP 4.3.4 + IM 5.5.7 and Gallery 1.4.1. I experienced this problem about a month ago, then reformatted Windows and everything worked like a charm. About a week ago it just stopped working out of the blue. Strangely enough, I am able to upload single photos using the "add photos" interface, but when I go through the "Add photo" interface, the cmd.exe process for creating the thumbnail fails to close, unless, of course, the image's dimensions are smaller than the thumbnail's. After playing around with some settings, I was able to upload 3MP images through the single photo interface after changing the album's properties to disable an intermediate image (from 640) as well as changing the thumbnail size to something other than 150. A hunch tells me the solution was due to the prior though...

Also, I made the fs_exec changes suggested in this forum and it had no effect. Also, the command executes successfully, it just doesn't close. After uploading a single image, I am left with a thumbnail in the album directory.

Here is a copy of all the debug output I added in order to diagnose this problem:

Yes, the thumbnail is actually generated, but Apache must be restarted afterwards.

If anybody feels so inclined, you can test this gallery at http://zorro.cwru.edu/gallerytest/

Login & Password = 'tester'

The only thing I did that could have possibly broke Gallery is install some software (see my previous post). Somehow has to have a solution for this problem...

IndyGreg, do you have any news with your problem.
I'm fighting against exactly the same trouble.

Thank you!

OK, I have read all the related info about this issue.

I also have:

Win2000 Pro
IIS (latest)
PHP 4.3.4
Apache 2.0.48
Gallery 1.4.2 RC-2

Here is the solution/ my experience:

if I use the "Add Photo" and just upload 1 image, gallery hangs. I have to restart Apache to get things working again.

if I use "Add Photos" and add 1 picture, all is well. After this, I can use the "Add Photo" option and add just 1 picture with no problem.

So the problem seems to be with uploading a single image for the FIRST time! After uploading anything with the "Add Photos" option, the "Add Photo" one also works no problem.

I tried all the suggestions here (changing the thumbnail size to something other than 150, changing temp directories, etc... etc... but none of these seemed to solve the problem.

I suggest looking into WHY the "Add Photo" script fails the first time only and not after that...

looking forward to a solution.

Well guys, I'm all out of ideas...

Here's what happened:

I uploaded some pictures using the gallery remote, and it seemed to work just fine.
One of my friends was going to upload some new pictures, so he created a new album, and tried to add photos. Now the photos are rather big, so they need resizing.
So the little progress window pops up, and its white (signifying that it has locked up) and it will not do anything.

I have noticed that it has created the thumbnail for the file, and it has copied the file over into the proper directory... But it doesn't seem to be able to write the code? for linking the pictures in Gallery.

I have looked at the error logs, and apache is not seeing any errors going on when I try to upload the pictures.

I have done a clean install of Apache. (I was originally using Apache 2, but downgraded to 1.3 and I'm getting the same problem)
AND reinstalled PHP, got it all set up according to the installation docs, and I'm still having the same problem...

When I try using the gallery remote now, it wont do anything. The little status bar just keeps going back and forth???

I'm completely stumped....

Any help would be very appreciative.

Thanks in Advance...

Tried it on Both Apache 2 and apache 1.3
I have PHP 4.3.4 installed as a module...
No MySQL
Running WinXP Pro SP1

Tried it with a fresh gallery installation. Same issue....

Hummm... not sure what I did... but I got it working.... =\

Well, what I DID do, is I copied the convert line that the debug info was showing manually into a command prompt, and executed that manually, and ever since I did that, the pictures seem to be uploading fine again....

Maybe some kind of sharing violation is happening!??

Here's some of the code by debugger brought up as well:

Errr.... well... it was working, until I took it out of debug mode, deleted an album, and tried to upload another picture, and its doing the same thing again.

arrrgggggg....

I cant remember how I managed to get the debug info to come up the first time either. (the first exec line atleast) to be able to force feed it into the command prompt.... But if you manage to get that done, it seems to fix the problem momentarily.

For some reason, it cant seem to process this line of the debug info normally:

File F:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache/htdocs/gallery/Albums/album12/ClientR_2004_01_27_16_06_36_59_009.jpg type 2.

any thoughts?

ghosty, despite I still can't solve the problem, remeber to install your applications on a "no space" path.... I saw in your logs the apache path and it is on "Program File" folder...

I'm pretty sure thats not the case anymore, since I had it working just find before, and for a couple minutes after it started happening.

I wish I remember what I did, I cant get it to work anymore.

Nope, didn't work for me.

C'mon guys, we could really use some more help!

Quick question, how many of you originally started to use gallery on IIS, and then switched to using Apache? I did... Maybe that has something to do with it?

Quick thought, but this probably has a lot to do with the problem we're having....

What kind of code should we be putting in our HTTD.conf file to allow apache to access the proper folders....

This is what I have:

<Directory "f:/program files/apache group/apache/htdocs/gallery">
	AllowOverride All
	Allow from all
	DirectoryIndex index.php
</Directory>

any thoughts?

Are you guys having a problem with single uploads or multiple uploads?

As I said in my earlier post, if I make a new album, and then try to use the single upload function, I have the same problem as you.

BUT if I make a new album, and use the multiple upload function to put just one picture in, and then use the single upload function from then on, all seems to be OK.

So I just went in the PHP code and took out the single upload option from the menu...

Something seems to be wrong with that script...

All is working fine for me now (I just use the Add Photos instead of Add Photo all the time).

actually, just tried it again, and it worked this time...

Yea, there must be something wrong with the single add photo function after a new album has been created.

Can some of you guys try ou 1.4.3-cvs from http://jpmullan.com/galleryupdates/ and see if the probllem still exists in that version?

I'm trying it out now. In the install process right now.
I received this error in the configuration:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: validate_email() in D:\pathtomygallery\gallery\setup\functions.inc on line 1184

I tried the email diagnostics and it was able to successfully send mail.

But since this most likely is unrelated to the other problem, I'll just turn mail off for now and go on with the installation.

Ok, installed and tried. As far as I could see there was no "Upload photo" anymore. Only "Upload photos".
And that seems to work flawlessly.
Oh, I forgot to say. This is the file I used: gallery.1.4.3-cvs-b48.tar.gz

luddet, great stuff! Seems we might have been able to iron out the issue.

As to your undefined function, thats strange. Are you sure all files were overwritten while upgrading?

I tried what everyone said with no results. The gallery still hangs after I try to upload 1 or more pictures. I used 1.4.3-cvs-b48 and b49 and the current release version. I'm running
Apache
php4.3.3

On a solaris box.

Any other suggestions? (Please)

Thanks :o

flarn, please go through FAQ Gallery:c.2 and post the results in a new tread. This one is crowded as it is.
