image listing

[ralf_b]

Hi,

first of all: Great work, Pekka!!

I was looking for a photo database for academic purposes to share our photos - and found ee which seems very useful to us (after a few modifications - we are more object than technique orientated).

After installation of a newer version of PHP and Apache all works fine.

With the unused photos and thumbnail imagelist feature I have problems!
I cannot see any listing or images. File pathes seem correct because I can see the photos after manual input of the file name.

Any idea about this problem? Browseable directories? Wrong httpd.conf - configuration?
I have not-at-all created a Samba-share because I'm in the testing right now.

Thanks a lot for any help,

Ralf

Hi,

Image listing (filename dropdown) and add new photo page (or add unused photos) use the RELATIVE path, not URL.

I.e. if you have EE in

httpdocs/gallery/

and input folder as

httpdocs/gallery/input4316472638742/

and the thumbs in

httpdocs/gallery/photos/thumbnail/

the relative path is

../photos/thumbnail/

The relative path should be calculated from your INPUT (=editor) folder to the THUMB folder. There is an error in current EE path editor page that it says it is calculated from gallery root, although in FAQ it is correct " (calculated from the editor folder)".

The permissions for all photo folders should be readable by all (755). For microthumbs you should use 777 because that is the only permission to enable move/delete and in some systems directory listing needs that last '7'.
