Gruenwald, this looks like a bug that was fixed a couple weeks ago. Which version of G1 are you using?

paour...

I'm using [ebuild R ] www-apps/gallery-1.5_p1, which is the stable version I emerged through gentoo's portage...

My other choice would be gallery-1.5.1 which, in portage, is masked by ~86 keyword.

What do you recommend?

Thanks...

Yeah, I forgot you were using Gentoo. I recommend you move to 1.5.1 (it's only masked because G 1.5.1 is beta, I think.

Any notion as to whether that will likely wipe out my Gallery album setup, as I now have it using my current version?

Thanks...

There shouldn't be any problems, a lot of people use the beta version.

I'm happy to report that upgrading Gallery as you suggested:

... has solved the problem!

I'm using GR 1.5.1-b1 with a recent build of Gallery 2 and have been having the same "Server contacted, but Gallery not found at this URL" problem. I have tried both the mod to the .properties file (forceGalleryVersion.0=2) and the fake 404 file, to no avail.

It does work flawlessly with the Gallery 1 installation I left set up (but for which I could not get login working for people using Mac OS's prior to 10.4).

For what it's worth, I'm doing everything from a Mac running OS 10.4.2 to a server running:
PHP version = 4.4.0 cgi
Webserver = Apache/1.3.33 (Unix)
mod_auth_passthrough/1.8
mod_bwlimited/1.4
mod_ssl/2.8.22
OpenSSL/0.9.7a
PHP-CGI/0.1b
Database = mysql 4.0.25-standard
Operating system = Linux 2.6.9-11.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jun 8 17:54:20 CDT 2005 i686

(as cheerfully reported by Gallery 2).

I've attached a GR log file, if it'll be helpful. (I hope I stripped out anything too revealing.)

Many, many thanks,

I had the same problem and here is my fix. I had to install a separate module for G2 to make Remote work - it's not part of the install package, but it's available on the Gallery site under Modules. Upload it to the gallery/modules folder, then log in as admin, go to modules section, click install, then activate. Remote works like a charm. Hope this helps.

Suffering from the same problem after upgrading to PHP nuke 7.6 patched 3.1 with Sentinel. Had Gallery 1.4.4 before upgrade of Nuke and tried upgrading Gallery to 1.5.1 with latest remote once I ran into the problem. Spent days surfing the web and posting unanswered questions with full logs in the remote forum. The "dead" thread is here:

http://gallery.menalto.com/node/18463?from=50#comment-154850

because I came across the posting in this thread about code in mainfile.php of phpnuke 7.6 (actually I think it's Patched 3.1 code, but that doesn't matter). Just for convenience the code is:

Quote:
/* if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "POST") {
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'])) {
if (!stripos_clone($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'], $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'])) {
die('Posting from another server not allowed!');
}
} else {
die($posttags);
}
} */

Note that I've commented it out. I believe that I've seen postings that this code is problematic in other situations too. I just finished testing pretty thoroughly. If I comment the code out my slideshows using the applet and my applets using the applet work. If I uncomment it then they get the infamous message that kicked off this thread.

I'm not sure that this is the solution for everyone as I have seen postings all over the web that go back several years relating to this situation.

Oh, just for those of you who don't have Nuke around, here are the $posttags that display when an empty referer is passed to mainfile.php:

Quote:
// Die message for empty HTTP_REFERER
$posttags = "<b>Warning:</b> your browser doesn't send the HTTP_REFERER header to the website.<br>";
$posttags .= "This can be caused due to your browser, using a proxy server or your firewall.<br>";
$posttags .= "Please change browser or turn off the use of a proxy<br>";
$posttags .= "or turn off the 'Deny servers to trace web browsing' in your firewall<br>";
$posttags .= "and you shouldn't have problems when sending a POST on this website.";

So, basically the Java applet is talking to a web site that just "dies" in this situation and this message is echoed over into the Java log somehow. Whether Java should be passing a referer back is beyond my level of understanding but removing this check is a work around for certain situations with PHPnuke.

Thanks to the person who found it earlier in this thread!!!

I have XOOPSGallery, which is based on Gallery 1.3.3.

When I upload pictures, it does it for 8-10 pictures, but then it stops and comes for each picture with famous "Server contacted, but Gallery not found at this URL".

What could we do here?

I have the same problem trying to connect with Gallery Remote to Gallery v2.

With Gallery v1, Gallery Remote worked great.

I have the same problem with G1.5.7, GalleryRemote fails with the "server contacted, but Gallery not found at this URL"

The Form upload just fails and continues to the processing page with an empty list of items to process.

Hmm just fixed the problem. After all it was still a filesize issue, or better said, a HTTP_POST size issue.

Make sure you set the next 3 values correctly in your php.ini

upload_max_filesize = 100M
post_max_size = 100M
max_input_time = 240 ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data

This fixed my problem. I know the values are huge, but hey it works now nicely for uploading big files.
