As Admin there is no album where I am allowed to upload files

[clairobscur]

I am running CMG 1.3 and uploaded as a user (also logged in as a user with my username) smooth and wihout any problem about thirty photos.
When I login on the same machine as admin, i get in admin mode and are able to change every detail that is specifically granted to the admin. So far no problem.
But when I login as an admin and want to upload files, I get the Customized Request form first where the maximum file upload boxes is 10 and when I set this amount of 10 on the line File upload boxes in the Box Number Request field and push Continue, I get the message: Error (on top) and in the middle of the field the message:'Sorry, there is no album where you are allowed to upload files'.
All the Admin options are allowing uploads in all categories up to 6000 Kb.
Could you possibly give me a clue what is or might be wrong? Thank you in advance for your appreciated reply. Regards.

did you create at least one album in the public category the upload could go to? Remember, the admin doesn't have a userpics section of his own. Posting a link to your gallery might help as well...

Additionally I found in debug mode that when I login again as admin (although I was properly logged out in the last session, that "You are already logged in!" See file login.php - Line 26 that says:

if (USER_ID) cpg_die(ERROR, $lang_login_php['err_already_logged_in'], __FILE__, __LINE__);

and when I continue and try as admin to upload a file it is giving the message as stated above: 'Sorry, there is no album where you are allowed to upload files' and the debug note, see upload.php - Line 841 that says

on line 840: if (!count($public_albums_list) && !count($user_albums_list)) {
and on line 841: cpg_die (ERROR, $lang_upload_php['err_no_alb_uploadables'], __FILE__, __LINE__);

I hope this info will give a little more information what the problem is or could be.

Can you please inform me how i have to do that?

[Joachim Müller]

OK, in other words: what is the URL of your coppermine gallery? As an example: if I were to post a link to the coppermine demo, it would look like this: http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/demo/

I have to apologize first Gau Gau, that I did not react directly yesterday anymore. Meanwhile I did what you suggested: I made an album in the category first and after that I could upload to this album. No problem anymore owing to your right conclusion!
The small problem with the message that I am already logged in knowing very sure, that I logged out according to the rules etc. hours before is not quite solved. When I push one of the menu buttons I am geting into the program nevertheless.
Could it help removing the cookies and then login again?

yes
