Required Info
Get this information from the PHP diagnostic (in the configuration wizard).
Gallery URL (optional but very useful): http://stde.ca/gallery
Gallery version: 1.6-RC3
Apache version: Apache/2.2.9 (Ubuntu)
PHP version (don't just say PHP 4, please): PHP/5.2.6-2ubuntu4.1 with Suhosin-Patch
Graphics Toolkit: ImageMagick 6.3.7
Operating system: Ubuntu 8.10 Server
Web browser/version (if applicable): Firefox 3.06

Also, a link to phpinfo if it helps: http://stde.ca/serverinfo/phpinfo.php

Hello everyone.

Just moved my albums folder to a new server and installed the newest G1 (1.6-RC3), following the instructions here:
- http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery1:Migrating_Gallery
- and also here: http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery1:Installation_on_a_Unix/Linux_Server_with_Shell_Access

Followed everything to the letter. Even re-did it twice. The albums folder was properly upgraded according to the configuration wizard.
This is a dedicated machine, with shell access so I am able to set permissions and configure everything freely.

When running the "Gallery 1 Configuration Wizard", everything was green except 2 of the "nice to have" items in the list:
- Jhead installed? --> warning: Can't find jhead.
- jpegtran installed? --> jpegtran was not found.

PROBLEM:
- After installation, when I go to http://stde.ca/gallery (or even http://stde.ca/gallery/albums.php explicitly), I get a blank page.
- When I go to http://stde.ca/gallery/login.php , I see the correct login form/page but when I login with admin/password, I get a blank page again immediately after that.

Not getting any 404 errors or other errors, just a blank page.
Ran all the tests on the Gallery Diagnostics page and all seems well.

Very odd.
Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions.

Darren

Managed to solve my own problem...

Memory allocation in php.ini was too small. Original value was 16MB. I changed it to 32MB and everything started working, although I was getting the odd memory error. Have since modified it to 64MB and all is well so far.
