SUPPORT FOR VERSION 1.9.x IN HERE ONLY (Really) - this is the 2.0 beta test run

[jam1]

Hold the press - I see the error of my ways!

Of course it can't find the file cpmfetch.inc.php - it's not in the 1.9.4 version
So I changed it from cpmfetch.inc.php to cpmfetch_config.php and it works!!!! 

Thanks again!

Hi,
   Thank you for replying so promptly. I tried the code that you suggested (I actually had tried this code at an earlier time). When I do, I get the following error:

Error: config file ./cpg140/cpmfetch/cpmfetch.inc.php specified but was not found

cpg140 directory is definitely there. It is the directory with all of the coppermine files and gallery and it is at the root level.
index.php is at the root level
cpmfetch is a directory within the cpg140 directory

Is the cpmfetch.inc.php file there?  It gets generated when you run the install.php program

I'm having the exact same problem. cpmfetch.inc.php hasn't been generated.

However I get the following error:

Code Select Expand

Fatal error: Call to undefined method cpm::viewLastAddedMedia() in /figureimages.co.uk/latestimage.php on line 6

Hmm I can't edit y post. Ah well. I forgot to add the following information:

Code Select Expand

<?php
include "./cpmfetch/cpmfetch.php";
$objCpm = new cpm("./cpmfetch/cpmfetch_config.php");
$source = "cat=4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,13,34";
$options = array( 'imagelink' => 'album' , 'imagewidth' => '200' );
$objCpm->viewLastAddedMedia(1,1,"",$options);
$objCpm->cpm_close();
?>


I'm not the best at coding so I gather it may be an error on my part.

It's just like the error says... it can't be found.  the actual call you want is below:

Code Select Expand

$objCpm->cpm_viewLastAddedMedia(1,1,"",$options);

I feel like an idiot. You're a legend. Thanks.

Hi Vuud,

I do not know what version the others are talking about, I am trying to make the cpmfetch v1.9.5.

Here are what I have tried:

Method 1:
The following are in the main directory:
*/gal001  -> this is the CPG folder
*/cpmfetch2  -> this is the cpmfetch folder
*/pics  -> this is the directory where the photos are kept (outside of the CPG) folder

Intallation:
http:/mysite.org/cpmfetch2/install.php

Result:
ERROR: Did not find config file at ../include/config.inc.php
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: getdefaults() in /home/public/public_html/cpmfetch2/cpmfetch_dao.php on line 69

__________
The error was localized here:

   $this->cfg =
         array_merge(getDefaults(),
         getCpgConfiguration(),
         getUserDefined(),
         getUserOverrides()
         );

__________

Notes:
Correction1&2 applied:
../cpmfetch2/cpmfetch.inc.php
or

Method 2:
The following are in the main directory:
*/gal001  -> this is the CPG folder
*/pics  -> this is the directory where the photos are kept (outside of the CPG) folder

*/gal001/cpmfetch2  -> this is the cpmfetch folder

Result:
Test images:
If all went well, you will see some random images from your gallery displayed here. If not, you may in fact have a problem and will need to seek help by clicking here.

These images were generated by using the following PHP code:

<?php

  $objCpm = new cpm();
  $objCpm->cpm_viewLastAddedMedia(1,4);
  $objCpm->cpm_close();
?>

For Method 2, while the images did not show up, the links: %f1 ~ %f2 ~ %f3 & %f4 were clickable and provide the correct images.

Also, the  "cpmfetch_config.php" file was populated with the values relevant to gal001:

// Full URL to your CPG gallerys album directory
//  $cfg['cpg_album_url'] = 'http://mysite.org/gal001/../pics/';

The Method 1 over Method 2 configuration would be preferred.

I think the "override function" would still be needed because of the unique location of the photos.  There are related questions, but I will raise those later.  Thanks.

If you are not putting cpmfetch under your CPG directory, the installation will not work.  But it will then give you a box that you can enter a relative path into.

If you enter:

../gal001/

into that box, the installation should work.

I don't know about that... the new way does a lot of things better... including getting the location of the albums and stuff directly from coppermine.

Is the cpmfetch.inc.php file there?  It gets generated when you run the install.php program

I did in fact run the install.php program and it is not generating the cpmfetch.inc.php file. I keep getting the same error. On a separate note, once you're in the coppermine gallery viewing pictures how do you return to the website. When I click on the back button, I'm only backing within coppermine.

Mostly cause I am an idiot, and / or stay up to late.

I should generate an cpmfetch_config.php file NOT a cpmfetch.inc.php file.

Sigh.

Little bugs on copperminefetch-1.9.6-dev.zip

I take a closer look on my php error file (php5.2.0) and see while using this version one old problem and one new problem.
The new one: in cfimageget.php there are 2 undefined variables.

I put in line 137 $config_file="";
and in line 231 $filenametoshow="";

to fix this.

The other one. I use this little script to display random pictures:

Code Select Expand


<?php 
require_once "cfimageget.php";
$cpmfetch = new cfimageget();
$cpmfetch->setSourceString("cat=13");
$cpmfetch->getRandom();
?>

In the php errorlog I get the following while using this script:
PHP Notice: Undefined offset: 1 in /var/www/.../gallerie/cpmfetch/cfimageget.php on line 235

this line contains:

Code Select Expand

switch (strtolower(substr($row[1],strrpos($row[1],'.')))) {

I notice this problem in the older v1.6 too.

Okay, I really need to go through the whole cfimageget file...  I did the RSS one for the last dev release, but will overhaul that one for the next dev release.

Thanks for reporting the bugs!  I definately appreciate it.

I am using 1.9.7 and it works fine. The only problem I have is that cpm_showAlbumsUpdatedOverLastDays($numberOfDays,$options="") has some hard coded language.

I like to adjust the words to the selected/default language of my phpbb forum. If that is not possible, it would be nice to use the cpg language setting. I tried the ladder, but the language definition had not been recognized.

Can you please help me on this?

I have a problem with performance. My gallery is pretty big (20,000+ photos). When I use cpmfetch my site loads at least 1 second longer than normal. I use the random album and the latest updated albums functions. All other functions are not needed. Is there anything I can do to decrease page generation time?

[DZGB]

Hi... I would need some help, I'm trying to install cpmfetch for 3 days already - and I don't know what is the problem - is it so complicated, am I stupid or it's something weird going on...

I tried many versions, and I couldn't get it right. I'm using wordpress 2.0.2. and currently installing copperminefetch-1.9.8-dev.
With this last one I did everything as I should, I changed attributes to 777, but I can't seem to run install.
When I enter RIGHT url, the browser opens homepage of the site.

If I try entering code to the sidebar

<?php
include "./galerija/cpmfetch/cpmfetch.php";
$objCpm = new cpm("./galerija/cpmfetch/cpmfetch_config.php");
$objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMedia(3,3);
$objCpm->cpm_close();
?>

I get a message it will be available after installing, and also i used to get this message

Warning: main(./galerija/cpmfetch/cpmfetch.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home2/sevenac/public_html/wp-content/themes/seve/sidebar.php on line 66

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: cpm in /home2/sevenac/public_html/wp-content/themes/seve/sidebar.php on line 67


I really don't know what else to try.. I'm far from being an expert but anyway...
Also the sidebar spreads widely and destroys total layout of the site.
Should I try something or forget about this forever?

What version exactly of cpmfetch, and did you get the install.php to run?  If the install does not run, then nothing else will work.

I have a problem with performance. My gallery is pretty big (20,000+ photos). When I use cpmfetch my site loads at least 1 second longer than normal. I use the random album and the latest updated albums functions. All other functions are not needed. Is there anything I can do to decrease page generation time?

Which functions exactly?  The extra functions if not used will not do anything to help performance by removing (anything noticable anyway)

Can you include your page code here also?  That could help.

Thx

[jerx]

The additional time for cpmfetch is less than I thought. On some page loads it was only 0.7 seconds more, about the same time as my gallery needs to parse. So this might be normal - bigger gallery -> longer page generation time. Anyways ...

I only use these two functions:
$objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMedia(1,2, array('alttag' => '%a, %f')),
$objCpm->cpm_showAlbumsUpdatedOverLastDays(10, array('alttag' => '%a %w', 'subtitle' => '%a, %f', 'imagelink' => 'album')),

I am using phpbb and the code is spread over several files. I have zipped all files and attached the zip to this post. The main file is portal.php. I have also added my modified cpmfetch files. I doubt that these are causing longer page loads, because the original files have the same impact.

I will have a look at your code...  One thing you can do - if you are on the dev versions is to set

$cfg['cfUseExistingDBConnection'] = 'true';

In the configuration file.  The important thing here is that you do NOT use the cpm->close() statement.  Or maybe you can, I forget if the code / php handles that correctly.  Try it with it, if you get lots of errors from PHPBB, then take it out.

This will tell cpmfetch to use an existing database connection, which will help alot if your PHPBB and CPG data are in the same database.

I will get back to you on the code later
