    Hi,

    I have a problem updating the Gallery package. It doesn’t look like a Gallery-specific problem, but there is something wrong when the Package manager attempts to create a ZIP archive of my current Gallery installation before starting the update. When it creates the ZIP archive, it stops at the file size of 20M.

    Does someone experience a similar problem? Do you have any recommendation what settings I can check?


    Here’s the original post from the Gallery support thread.

    Hi,

    I’m running MODx 2.0.4-pl2 with Gallery 1.0.1 rc2. When I try to update to Gallery 1.0.2-rc1, the installation process is stuck:
    Console running...
    Attempting to install package with signature: gallery-1.0.2-rc1
    Package found...now preparing to install.

    In the MODx error log, I see the following message:

    Could you please help me with this problem?


    Update

    I found out that MODx creates the file 4515ee1087609ed093d38dc273f158b6.0.preserved.zip with a size of 20M, then it is stuck. The directory assets/components/gallery contains 2149 files with a total size of 247M.

    I copied my MODx installation to a test system running Ubuntu 10.10 and I was able to update Gallery without any problems. Could the problem be caused my some PHP settings? I also noticed on my Ubuntu system that MODx keeps the file 4515ee1087609ed093d38dc273f158b6.0.preserved.zip after the update. Since my Gallery content is quite large, I would like to know if there is a way to clean up the old versions of Gallery after the update has finished successfully?
