Hey folks, I've combed through the FAQ and forum troubleshooting topics and really appreciate a second pair of eyes on this.
Problem Description:
When adding photos via URL Gallery is unable to find any images located at the URL. I know the photos are there and URL is correct. If I paste the URL into a browser it lists the jpeg images in the folder. URL upload was working fine before upgrading to 1.5.9 from 1.5.4. I upgraded to 1.5.10 to see if there was an issue with 1.5.9.
For Example:
Processing 'http://www.forexample.com/uploadbin/2009bday' as file or URL.
- Parsing http://www.forexample.com/uploadbin/2009bday for images...
- Found 0 images
I'm able to upload via Applet and Form without issue.
All folders have permissions of: 755
I understand if upload_tmp_dir is undefine Gallery will not upload any images however in my case the images are not even located. Is this issue also caused by an undefined upload_tmp_dir?
PHP Configuration:
upload_tmp_dir no value no value
user_dir no value no value
file_uploads On On
allow_url_fopen On On
allow_url_include On On
Gallery version 1.5.10
PHP Version 5.2.8
Apache Version 2.2.1
Window Explorer 6.0.2900 and Fire Fox 3.0.7
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Well I found a workaround to my issue. By using stating the absolute path in the URL load, Gallery was able to locate and upload the images in that directory.
In my case the absolute path was /home/user/public_html/<folder name>. You can locate your absolute path through your web host's site management application like CPanel through the file manager.
Still doesn't explain why I was able to upload via URL before and not after upgrading from 1.5.4 to 1.5.9.

Hello Haley,
unfortunately i do not understand what you did.
Can you give me a step-by-step list to reproduce your issue?

Hello Jens, all that performed was upgrading from Gallery v1 1.5.4 to 1.5.9 and I was no longer able to upload via URL. I am however able to upload via absolute path.
Thank you,
Haley
