Image Import

[dklassen]

When I try to do a bulk import, I get this error message. Tried it from different directories including the import directory. Suggestions?

Thanks

Is it able to import any pictures? Is the directory readable? Try to delete the import folder and recreate it.

I can't do any imports or bulk. If I use add a picture it works fine. Any import or bulk ends up with that error. The directory is readable and writable. Tried deleting and recreating. Tried different directories. The mod was a clean install with no errors and everything else looks ok so far.

Bulk adding you get an error as well using bulk uploads?
No errors in error log?

Seems that your host has some memory limits on scripts which is causing the server error.

I am not sure if your host allows you to change memory limits for scripts:
You can try this and see what happens
Open Sources/Gallery.php
Find twice

Code: [Select]

@ini_set('max_execution_time', '300');
Add after each one

Code: [Select]

@ini_set("memory_limit","15M");

Not working. I can't even add one picture now without the server error. I tried increasing from 15 to 20m for each. Still the same error. I've had other gallery scripts such as photoplog, coppermine, etc running on this host with no memory issues.

What does the error say in the log?

[SMFHacks]

Tracked down the error your host does not have imagecreatefromgif support in their GD version. which will cause SMF's function to timeout when using gif files.
They need to upgrade to GD version 2.0.28 or greater

Not sure I understand. I'm not using gif files, they are all jpg. Are you refering to the thumbs it creates?

What if they won't or can't upgrade. Am I stuck??

[dklassen]

Also, how come it worked for a while but not now? I can't get any pics into the gallery now.

[SMFHacks]

I think it is the host issue with the memory limit and I think a bad gif file is causing it to hold up.

I mainly said gif files since this error relates to GIF file handling and will only use that function if older version of GD is used.

Code: [Select]

Two things I would ask for is to upgrade the GD version firstly and increase the default memory limit from 8m.

Thanks, I have in a request. <fingers crossed>

[dklassen]

Here's the latest and the response from my host.

"This email is to let you know the memory limit was increased (16k) and the servers already have GD 2.0.28 installed."

Now I can upload single files but when I try to do bulk (even one or two files) it doesn't give any errors and completes but there are no images that end up in the gallery. Same with import.
