Administator,

I am thinking this is a different problem than mine as it sounds like his thumbs are being made. IN mine they are not being made at all. I was thinking is there a way to write a direct script path that forces it to use Imagemagick where I have it without considering gd library. Perhaps my hosting forces it to use gd.

Hope that makes sense. Just trying to make it work for me as I like your mod.

Thanks! It worked.

Thumbs get created in Gallery folder. My gallery had no problem with creating em, only rights were wrong. Pics are named like 1_09_12_06_11_37_54.jpg and thumbs thumb_1_09_12_06_11_37_54.jpg. I saw also thumb files before i chmod em.

In other server i did not had any problems.

Might of found issue... I finally decided to focus my efforts on installing a different gallery to see if I could get it to work and installed Gallery2. It had the same issue without creating thumbnails. I finally gave up and reprovisioned my whole server and start again. I found one errror sneak in while I was installing ImageMagick in and that was that no zlib was found. So I found zlib and installed in and than installed Imagemagick. At the same time I installed the latest gd library and jpeg and png libraries and though and behold the Gallery2 worked. ...

I am off to install SMF again and will try with Gallery. I assume this will solve the issue as well..... cross your fingers.

Sorry to say gallery lite still not creating thumbnails. I looked more into the installation of Gallery2 and noticed that it says that ImageMagick is properly installed and GD library is not installed on the PHP even though I did install it. Anyhow as I said the Gallery2 had the same problem of not producing thumbnails before I installed the zlib.

Not sure what the issue of creating thumbs is with Gallery Lite but will keep thinking and pondering...

Check your php.ini make sure the extension is loaded.

[Globber]

php.ini I know where to find extension loaded do not understand. Pretty new to this stuff but figured a bunch out using ssh etc . Give me what to look for and I will find out if it is there.

I have the same sort of problem with viewing the pics. Unlike these two guys however, my gallery creates thumbs and their chmod is all set. However, thumbs are 0kb and pics and thumbs both have names like thumb_1_17_01_07_1_00_04.jpg.
I've read this http://www.dotproject.net/vbulletin/archive/index.php/t-1358.html , ok i've found php.ini but what to do next? it looks like this;
....
;extension=php_fdf.dll
;extension=php_filepro.dll
extension=php_gd2.dll
extension=php_gettext.dll
....

Check that you have a valid upload folder upload_dir set in the php.ini with write permissions.

[gilestel]

I'm not sure what to do now... I've found something like this upload_tmp_dir= "C:\WINDOWS\Temp" along with other extensions in php.ini and there is also this
; Whether to allow HTTP file uploads.
file_uploads = On

; Temporary directory for HTTP uploaded files (will use system default if not
; specified).
;upload_tmp_dir =

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 2M

This is all that contains the word 'upload' in php.ini
I'm attaching it also here..

ps: there are no more thumbs created inside the gallery folder. just the pic itself, and it shows red cross instead of a thumb.

[SMFHacks]

You need to the upload_tmp_dir to a folder that is writable.

[gilestel]

ok i think i got it...will try right away and tell the outcome...

i replaced c/windows/temp with E:/inetpub/vhosts/darcysharem.com/httpdocs/forum/gallery/
then uploaded another picture and recheck the gallery directory thru ftp, there are no thumbs but only a .tmp namely phpCAF2.tmp
