Albums location question!

[mslino]

I'm running coppermine on my own web server at home. Frist I have installed the script at /home/fotosgallery directory. The directory for my albums was /home/fotosgallery/albums. Now I'm trying to change the albums directory to large hard disk labeled /albums.
My new albums location is /albums/albums. I can send the pictures to server without problem, but I can't see the pictures after I sent it. I try to create a symbolic link to new location without success.
I think that can be a problem with displayimage.php. Does anyone can help me to fix this matter?

moving the whole coppermine folder around shouldn't be a problem, nor renaming it, as only the relative path to the pics from the "albums" folder is stored in the database (although you'll have to go into coppermine config after moving/renaming and change the "link to ecard" settings accordingly).
The folder structure within coppermine should be left intact: if moving the albums subfolder somewhere else (outside the coppermine folder) will suceed or not greatly depends on your server config (to be honest, I never tried to do that myself).
The link you provided times out (although some headers are sent, the content of the page isn't being displayed).
I'm not sure what we could do to help you... Does the page display on localhost?

gaugau,

My server was down for some reason but now is working again.   You can see that I sent some pictures to server but those pictures are not displayed when you load the page. Check it at //www.fotosgallery.com

If  I set the albuns directory to be inside of cpg folder the pictures are displayed well.  As you can see bellow, the pictures was uploaded successfully.

your server's still (or again) down for me, I'm giving up.

Gaugau,

    I'm out of town today, but I tested to connect with my page and the server is up. Please try again and let me know if you can see the page.

If you don't get an answer to a posting after some days (not hours!), it's OK to reply to the thread with a line saying

*bump*

, but you mustn't pm me (or, in fact, anybody else) about it (and, to make things worse, even without having a link in the pm to the thread you're referring to).

Like I said in my previous post:

I'm giving up

(because I have a very low tolerance level for people running their own server). I'm already spending some hours on support every day, it's my decision not wait for your server to be up.
Maybe someone else is willing to have a look into this - good luck...

Just a thought.  Have you changed the path in config correctly?

I see on your first post you put the new directory path as '/albums/albums'.

Is this what you changed it to in config.  It should be 'albums/albums', note no slash at the start.
