Here is the result of check_netpbm.php

Loading configuration files. If you see an error here, it is probably because you have not successfully run the config wizard. OK

Let us see if we can figure out what operating system you are using.
This is what your system reports:

Warning: passthru() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/.sites/27/site442/web/modules/gallery/setup/check_netpbm.php on line 88

This is the type of system on which PHP was compiled:

Linux www27.world4you.com 2.6.10-1.771_FC2smp #1 SMP Mon Mar 28 01:10:51 EST 2005 i686

Make sure that the values above make sense to you.

Look for keywords like "Linux", "Windows", "FreeBSD" etc. in the output above.If both the attempts above failed, you should ask your ISP what operating system you are using.You can check via Netcraft, they can often tell you.

You told the config wizard that your Netpbm binaries live here:

/home/.sites/27/site442/web/modules/gallery/netpbm

If that is not right (or if it is blank), re-run the configuration wizard and enter a location for Netpbm.

We are going to test each Netpbm binary individually.

I don´t have root access to the server i can just access via ftp.

uhhh..don´t know - please have a look:
http://www.feuerwehr-gaweinstal.at/phpinfo.php
If you mean the script (diabled functions) from the FAQ then i get the following information:
system, shell_exec, passthru, show_source, proc_open, popen

Yes

I tried
1) netpbm in the root directory
2) netpbm in the gallery directory

no success

NetPBM/Gallery micro distribution, version 1.4-pl1

I get the binaries from:
http://netpbm.sourceforge.net

Wrong Version?!?

Well - I´m not sure because i downloaded the package on a other machine so i don´t know it 100% but i think it was:
netpbm_gallery_1.4-pl2-linux-intel.zip

In my post before I wrote PL1 - because in the readme file is pl1 but the the package name is pl2-linux-intel.zip

I´m not sure if this is the information you want to know but i don´t know where i can get more informations about the istalled version.

Hi,

yes, thats the info i wanted.
The Linux-Intel Package should be the correct package for your machine.

So far i have no real idea why it fails and i guess you have only FTP access, no Shell-Access.
So i can only suggest that you talk to your hoster and ask if they can install Netpbm or ImageMagick for you. (IM preferable).

Glad you got the Netpbm issue working.

Looks like a class FAQ now ;-)

FAQ: I can successfully upload photos, but when I look in my album all I see are broken image icons. Why?
