Problem of EXIF in EE 1.5 Beta 4 FixPack 2

[mwpmo]

I found the following Problems of EXIF in EE 1.5 Beta 4 FixPack 2.

1) In the "UPLOAD TO DTATBASE" Page, the EXIF field for all my 10D photo in 1.5B4FP2 is "?" ("X" in 1.5B4FP1)

2) The EXIF test in "Graphic Modules" Page, there is NO RESULT, just "TEST IS DONE" (Have a long list of results in 1.5B4FP1)


Are they new "bug" in 1.5B4FP2 ?

Working fine here on fixpack2. Different camera, but images i've tested so far showed up with "X" in the upload page.

For Problem (1) - may be that is the problem of my 10D file, but the same set of file work fine in FixPack 1 ???

But for problem (2) - the EXIF test use the same "source.jpg" file in the EE package, the problem either my system or FP2 itself.
But I haven't change any settings of my server ???

It is possible that your server admin has updated PHP and forgot to keep EXIF in installation list. I have not changed anything in EXIF test in long while.

When you saw X in earlier versions, it did not say HOW MUCH exif data PHP can extract, or how much there is that data.

New EE's give you two "levels":

"?" means that there is EXIF data, but there does not seem to be any decent camera data like shutter speed and so on.

"X" means that EE sees full proper exif data in the file.

Some programs give you ? and some X - I can't do much about that because the EXIF extraction system is inside PHP - I will seek for other alternatives in future.

You can see the full EXIF listing in ftp messages for each uploaded photo.

Pekka,

That is the answer!

Cause I am the server admin.

Remember I have slow speed in Mysql before?

When I try to solve the problem, I recompiled PHP with local MYSQL support from local mysql server (not build-in mysql support by PHP), I forget to include "--enable-exif"

Problem fixed.
