Hello Everyone,

I've managed to update this module to support the lastest fixes etc.

Quick Installation and Setup quide:
-------------------------------------

1) Download and extract the photogallery.zip file.
2) FTP or copy the files into the root of your website
3) Run the install/index.php file to install the module
4) Follow the on screen instructions.

After install run the PhotoGallery Admin panel and click on the Install/Clear Galleries button.

Usage: Calls to the gallery snippet are made using the gallery's ID (as displayed on the admin panel).

example:

Where 4 is the id of your photo gallery.

For more information please see the help section accessible via the admin panel.

2) Click the "Uninstall galleries" button to remove agllery tables
3) Delete the module, snippet and files (assets/modules/epg2) associated with the photo gallery

Unable to load dynamic library './gd2.so' - ./gd2.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

What did I do wrong?

I am still learning how modules work etc, (Still learning how the TV's work for that matter.)

Looks like your Apache server's php module was compiled without the GD library support. Check the phpinfo() view in Administration->View system info. You should see something like this '--with-gd' in the Configure command section (near the top) as well as a "gd" section further down in the (alphabetical) list of available modules.

I see that the module attempts to dynamically load the GD library if it's not available; here's some interesting info on the dl() function:

No, phpinfo tells me gd is installed. '--with-gd'
GD version = bundled (2.0.28 compatible)
Should there be a mod_gd listing as well?

My first basic assumption is always that I don't know enough about how it's supposed to work. So I'm not sure if I'm missing something about how the module system... for instance I was looking for the admin panel and finally figured out that the box to the left of the module popped up a menu. I chose ->run module. That's when I get the error.

For instance, the quickedit module runs a help page. Am I assuming correctly that this is where and how to run the admin panel?

The other thing I thought was maybe I'm missing a file.

No, looks like your gd is fine. Hopefully the module's developers will have more to say. I only ran the earlier version for a while, so really can't say much more.

I get this in EventLog viewer:

Not supported in multithreaded Web servers - use extension=php_gd2.dll in your php.ini

I have XAMPP install in windows, and GD2 is enabled and working in other tests.

Hmmm,

Try commenting out lines 68-75 inside the module code. The module is trying to load the GD lib but it seems to be failing on different install.

// attempt to load GD2 library
if (!extension_loaded('gd2')) { 
   if (strtoupper(substr(PHP_OS, 0,3) == 'WIN')) { 
		if(!@dl('php_gd2.dll')) return 0;
   } else { 
		if(!@dl('gd2.so')) return 0;
   } 
}

Yes. It works like a charm now. I even created a test gallery to make sure. Although the wanring that I didn't have gallery tables did throw me for a second.

Um, well I have a gallery but clicking on the thumbnails doesn't take me anywhere. I see the status bar making alot of noise but it's too fast for me to read. No actually, I think it just reloads the same page.

I think I need to delve in a little and read to see if there is a setting I neglected.
