After updating to the latest beta i am getting this error when opening several of my albums:

And here's how we got there:

*

Kohana::show_404( )

* C:\Server\ftp\XXX\gallery\gallery3\system\core\Event.php [209]:

call_user_func( Array
(
[0] => Kohana
[1] => show_404
)
)

* C:\Server\ftp\XXX\gallery\gallery3\system\libraries\Router.php [163]:

Event::run( system.404 )

*

Router_Core::setup( )

* C:\Server\ftp\XXX\gallery\gallery3\system\core\Event.php [209]:

call_user_func( Array
(
[0] => Router
[1] => setup
)
)

* C:\Server\ftp\XXX\gallery\gallery3\system\core\Bootstrap.php [49]:

Event::run( system.routing )

* C:\Server\ftp\XXX\gallery\gallery3\index.php [86]:

require( C:\Server\ftp\XXX\gallery\gallery3\system\core\Bootstrap.php )

Windows servers are not supported.
Did you run the upgrader.... try an experimental version:
FAQ: How do I upgrade?

That advertisement is for version 2.3 (which does work on Windows)

Windows is not a supported platform....but your error looks similar to what is described here:

Hope that helps.

figured it out if you edit the album and take the @ symbol out of the internet address it works!

Thanks all.

Not for now. Unless a quality PHP developer for Windows wants to step up to the plate and devote 100s of hours a year in coding and support in the forums :) A few windows people have made some noise, but nobody thus far has expressed any commitment to that.

The supported platform for G3 is:
Linux
Apache 2.2
MySQL 5+
PHP 5.2.3+

I understand your position on the server side and agree that to go further will require some healthy commitment by additional folks.

But does this position also have a similar client side position. Even if you consider the top 5-6 browser environments only, they all have differences in thier 'interpretation' of how things should work. But either way, that is not something the server side can control, short of deliberately refusing specific browsers to even get started.

I never mentioned anything about the client. G3 should work in current versions of FF, IE, Opera, Safari, Chrome, can't think of any other major, legitimate browsers on the market. But a lot 99+% of this is going to be dependent on the theme.

I was talking strictly of the environment where G3 runs.

It isn't a big deal to me as i plan to move to a Linux box in the next 6 months but i do think that it is silly to not support both.

When you find a developer willing to commit some time and effort to make it work in windows send him to us.

scope of work wrote:
If Gallery 3 works on Windows + IIS + PHP perfectly without us trying, that's great, but this policy lets us take advantage of unique features of Apache and MySQL that are not available on other platforms. If you'd really like to see Gallery 3 work on some other platform we invite you to come talk to us. Seriously! Corporate support is welcome as well: for example, if Microsoft would like to own our Windows Server support and is willing to do most of the work and QA on that part, we're definitely willing to cooperate on that.
