I just upgraded from version 1.2.1 to 1.4.3 The problem is that when I try to upload the albums it will only let me upload 2000 files into one album. I have tried using different ftp's but they all do the same thing. It says that the download was truncated because I have 2000 files for that one album already. I have a few albums where there are almost 20,000 files on them and I can't get them uploaded to the gallery, it will only take the first 2000 pics. I tried making new albums and putting them there which of course works but then the path is wrong so it does me no good. I am kinda new at this and I am totally lost right now as to what to do or why this is happening.
are you talking about files within one sub-folder of the albums folder or are you talking about entries inside the database? As far as I can see, you're talking about files in a folder - if there is a limitation, it's server-sided (i.e. an issue you would have to discuss with your webhost), not related to coppermine. However, it's not a bright idea to store 2000 files in one folder, nor is keeping 2000 file entries within one album in coppermine's database, so I suggest reviewing the overall structure and design of both your site as well as your file structure on the webserver's hard drive.
I am talking about files within one subfolder. I thought it might be with my host so I am going to try that and hopefully things can be worked out. Thank you for your help and I will definitely look at how we have the gallery setup.
coppermine (or any other PHP-driven app) might time-out when indexing a folder with 2000 files. Reviewing your setup is mandatory.
