Upload Problems - new install

[woodyga]

  First please dont flame me so fast Ive searched the docs but Im stuck.  I have 2 web sites with the same webhost (webhostingbuzz.com). I installed coppermine cpg1.4.12 on my first website using there installer no problems works great. Now on my second site I installed  cpg1.4.12 using my webhost installer but I cant upload any pics at all I  have checked and double checked permissions all are 755.  I get the message The previous file could not be placed. You have successfully placed all the files.

  The debug is

at first, last coppermine version is 1.4.14, update your install,
second, we don't recommand ton install coppermine using auto-installer. see in the future cpg1.5 doc why (it can be apply to cpg 1.4.* http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg15x/docs/auto-installers.htm

Don't post debug_output unless requested. Instead, do as suggested in the upload troubleshooting section of the docs.

 OK I have upgraded to 1.4.14  and I have the same problem.  The errror is still The previous file could not be placed. You have successfully placed all the files. Any help would be thankfull.

You must read the section of the docs that GauGau posted and the sticky thread.

[woodyga]

 Where are those docs at? Could you post the link to them for me?

Thanks woody,

[François Keller]

don't you see the documentation menu item on the top of this page 
BTW in your coppermine pack you can find a docs folder...

[just_some_guy]

Well...In the archive you downloaded, on your website and there is a link on the top of this page.

[woodyga]

ok i found the docs and followed them got  this error  "can't be inserted in the album"   "Unable to create thumbnail or reduced size image."


I created a test account if you can help me    it is user "test" password "test"    delcams.com/gallery/

You didn't enable debug mode. Are you using GD2 or ImageMagick?

[woodyga]

sorry debug is enabled   I dont know if i have imagemagic or not

[Nibbler]

What did you select when you installed?

[just_some_guy]

The file 'albums/userpics/image.JPG' can't be inserted in the album

Unable to create thumbnail or reduced size image.

File: /home/delcamsc/public_html/gallery/db_input.php - Line: 402

Dont the upload directories usally follow the structure of /albums/userpics/10002/image.JPG etc.? not here...

[Nibbler]

That happens when silly_safe_mode is enabled.

I missed that you used an autoinstaller, they are not recommended for a reason you know. Go into config and switch the resize method from ImageMagick to GD2.

[woodyga]

i  change to gd2 and I can finally upload a pic. I guess i dont have imagemagic installed

[Joachim Müller]

Glad that this was solved. To make sure that you (and others who come across this thread) understand the reason for all the fuss: you have used an auto-installer. They suck. They set up stuff in coppermine's config that is just wrong (in your case: they set up coppermine to use ImageMgaick although you don't have that). That's why we don't recommend using them. Don't use auto-installers like fantastico in the future.
