Normal_ and Thumb_ files don't show up

[Shelly]

Alright, I had some sort of weird troubles uploading pictures in the past, which made me re-install the gallery. I moved the "albums" section into the new gallery folder, deleted the already existing normal and thumb files that belonged to the old gallery and added the pictures to the new gallery. Well, the whole gallery is set up again, but another error occurred when I tried to upload new images today.

I used the search to see if anyone already had the same problem and it's pretty much to same as here: http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,33167.msg154705.html#msg154705 but since I am using the 1.5x version I created a new topic.

Anyway, when I try to add new pictures to an album (doesn't matter whether it's per batch or the regular uploader) the image is being added, but there doesn't seem to be an orig_ normal_ or thumb_ file. When I take a look at the folder via FTP it seems like the files have been created, but they're just blank files. I remember that it worked a while ago when I tried it and I actually don't remember changing any settings that might have caused the problem.

If anyone wants to try it, that's the gallery: http://marina-diamandis.org/gallery/

and I've created a test-account:

Username: tester
Password: testuser

It'd be really great if anyone could help me, I really don't want to set up the gallery for the third time, it would just takes ages again :/

Works as expected for me:

• http://marina-diamandis.org/gallery/displayimage.php?pid=10037
• http://marina-diamandis.org/gallery/displayimage.php?pid=10038

[Shelly]

Thanks for trying it out, but that's weird, for me it doesn't for some reason. It keeps looking like this:

http://marina-diamandis.org/gallery/displayimage.php?album=501&pid=10040#top_display_media

Do you have any ideas what's wrong there?

You tried to upload a png image file. Please try again with a jpg file and attach the file you just wanted to add to your gallery.

[Shelly]

Damn, that was it! It works with .jpg files Thanks a lot!!!

[Shelly]

But is it possible to upload .png files somehow?

[lurkalot]

config / file settings / Do you have png listed in  "Allowed image types"  If not, then add it.

To be honest I thought it was a default setting, as all my galleries have it, and png images work fine. 

[Αndré]

attach the file you just wanted to add to your gallery

Username: tester
Password: testuser

Doesn't work anymore.


Try to switch between ImageMagick & GD2 as resizing method.

Hm, I do have it listed.

The tester/testuser account should work again. Attached the file I tried to add.

How does this work?

[Αndré]

How does this work?

It's a Coppermine config option: http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/configuration.htm#admin_picture_thumb_advanced_resize_method

[Shelly]

I either did something wrong, or this doesn't help. It was set to GD2 and after changing it to ImageMagick it didn't upload the png files at all, instead error messages appeared, saying "Error executing ImageMagick - Return value: 127".

Check to see if you have the correct path settings for your server and also confirm that ImageMagick is installed on your server. You might have to ask your host for help.

[Αndré]

Just to make this clear: it should work with both GD2 and ImageMagick. If you don't have ImageMagick on your server, switch back to GD2. If it doesn't work maybe your host has disabled it.

check php info if png support is enabled (scroll down to the gd part)

PNG Support    enabled

[Shelly]

Do you mean phpinfo.php in the gallery folder? I can't even see the gd part, actually.

Yes.

I can't even see the gd part, actually.

That doesn't make sense. If you still have GD2 set as resizing method in the Coppermine settings and uploading (at least) jpg files works as expected, you should at least see that part:

JPG Support    enabled

[Shelly]

Weird, I fear I'm looking in a completely wrong place. That's my phpinfo.php file:

Shelly, on your gallery main menu, you'll see a button called "Information" hover your mouse cursor over this, and in the dropdown menu you'll see phpinfo.  Click this, and that will give you your server info.  Scroll down to where it mentions GD, and see if it says enabled.

[Shelly]

Thank you, now I got it  However, it says it's enabled :/

[Αndré]

Please post the whole GD section.
