hi all,

i've recently rebuilt my webserver and i'm trying to restore my gallery2 gallery.

i had backed up the database, my albums, and my gallery2 folder.

i've now restored all of those; when i try and access my gallery, however, i get this error message:

Security Violation

The action you attempted is not permitted.

can anyone please shed some light on what might be going wrong?

thanks!

probably, this means that your database is either somewhat corrupt or that something with the db import didn't work successfully.

let's first find out what version of g2 you're really running. it's not g2.1.2. g2.1.2 didn't have the getMapEntry function.

ah, i've at least solved a first problem - turns out i still had an old cache folder in my g2data folder; deleting it and reloading made these errors disappear. thanks again valiant!!
