Title: Possibility of calling/register a picture file from an other server?
Post by: fdeconiac on September 05, 2008, 01:53:53 PM
Hi everyone!

well i'm looking for a photo gallery whith a database, which would allow to include picture file from an other server...

Exemple :

I have http//server1.youpi.fr, http://server2.youpi.fr,... for real, i'm using different free hosting, each offering me 10Go.

Each server host different picture (essentially, but other medias too) file, and i would like to install my gallery database, as coppermine for exemple, on an other server (and bridge it with my blogs b2evolution).

My question/request : Can i install coppermine on a server1.youpi.fr, and create on my database a new photo folder hosted on a server2.youpi.fr?

I imagine that it would be possible, if the database scan the photo folder of the server2 and register the complete direction of the photo (http://server2.youpi.fr/category/photo37.jpg), and eventually create a sample on the server1.

If a such thing is already possible or if you think you would be abble to develop it, please let me know, because i would be interesting!

bye bye

No, you can't. Coppermine doesn't support remote storage. Has been asked and answered often before.
