Changing properties of an album-You don't have permission to access db_input.php

[OuT.LeD]

I integrated my gallery with SMF. When I try to change properties of an album to allow users to post their photos there, it shows this error:

You don't have permission to access /gallery/db_input.php on this server.

How can solve it? I try to search in the forum but I didn't found any help!

Thank you!

"on this server" hints at incorrect permissions set on db_input.php. Check chmod settings on the file.

Same here when I'll try to change the description of an album. As long I doesn't use UTF-8 as board language I can't change the description with have special chars like german umlauts in it.

So it be should be okay if you have only read access to db_input.php.

Please post a link to your page

Don't know if you mean me GauGau, but I will go for it anyway.

Today I checked it again and I got the messages "You don't have permission to access /catmgr.php on this server" when switched to Western iso-8859-1 and try to create a category with umlauts.
Permissions on root are 644 but the same happend when switched to 777.

Actually I don't allow login for strangers to my gallery - if you need a testaccount, please let me know.

I still don't understand what you're trying to say: the page you refer to uses utf-8 encoding. Why would you want to switch to iso8859-1? It would break all existing textual content on your page that already uses Umlauts or other special chars. You're currently using cpg1.4.5 - update to the most recent version (currently cpg1.4.6).

Right.
I don't wonna drive another codepage - please understand this just as an information about the problem / bug and why it might also happend to OuT.LeD.

I use to run another codepage before and followed the advice to use UTF-8 I found in here. This already broke all existing content and I fixed this on this gallery.
But IPTC infos are not written in UTF-8 by IMatch to my images (and Mario the coder of IMatch can't tell when this will be the case).
So sometimes I am on the edge and can't decide what will be more important to me, ugly looking IPTC info by driving UTF-8 or or having nice IPTC and switching to another codepage; that's why I temporarely switched back.
Another possibility might be to avoid special chars in IMATCHs category and IPTC editor and upload all images again.

You're currently using cpg1.4.5 - update to the most recent version (currently cpg1.4.6).

Right I didn't update this gallery yet - but I host another gallery with V1.46 where this and the problem with lacking EXIF infos (another thread) on new uploaded images is the same.
As long I can't figure out why the EXIF prob exists and how it can be solved (I can't find answers or solutions here), I won't update the gallery I refered to.
