I am using the most recent version of G2 with Joomla 1.0.11 and G2 Bridge. Recently, I have started to get a series of errors:

-- Thumbnails aren't working on newer albums. They shows on older albums, but new ones shows a cracked-image icon.
-- The random image module does not display.

I also get this error message on the photo page:

Quote:
Warning: exec() has been disabled for security reasons in /var/www/vhosts/louisvillecardinalsfan.com/httpdocs/gal/modules/core/classes/GalleryPlatform/UnixPlatform.class on line 96

The message repeats when performing various of editing the album.

This started about the time I added the new security changes for Joomla (PHP Globals and Emulation OFF).

Any ideas what is causing the issue and any suggestions on how to fix? Thanks, Rick

@exec:
the php exec function must have enabled at some point since you couldn't activate g2 modules that require it without it being enabled.
but now this function has been disabled by your webserver administrator.

you need to disable and uninstall the following g2 modules: netpbm, imagemagick, gd, archiveupload, dcraw, ffmpeg, zipcart.
afterwards, you can try to install and enable those modules again. but most won't work anymore. (they don't work anymore right now, but g2 doesn't know about it yet. you need to uninstall the modules to inform g2 about it)

Thanks for the help. I uninstalled the modules and reinstalled them and now the thumbnails and albums are working properly. Again, thanks for the prompt solution. - Rick
