Batch add - files not visible

[paulcobb]

HI,
I am batch adding files.
The files exist in a directory on the server, but when I go to add them all to a new album not all files are 'ticked'.  The remaining files are flagged as already in the database. When the gallery is viewed thease flagged files are not visible.
This maybe caused by me deleting the files at one point by FTP then re-ftping.  I think the database is out of step with the current position.  Is there any way to rectify the situation?

1) In the future, don't delete files directly from the file system (using your FTP app) once they exist in coppermine's database
2) To fix this issue, go through coppermine's pictures table in the database and remove the surplus ghost entries there (using phpMyAdmin or similar)

This is very similar to the problem I have having but on the insert page, all I get are broken images and there are no ghost images in mysql. I have even created a new Album, uploaded new pictures via FTP and went through the entire process again but still I get broken images, and not files are added to the Album.

not similar, but totally different and not related. Start your own thread after having read http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/docs/index.htm#upload_trouble
I just read your thread - you already have one, so don't cross-post!
