The phpthumb function of Gallery stopped working after upgrading to 2.1.1 PL

    I’ve just upgraded a website to MODX 2.1.1 PL. I’m using the latest version of Gallery, MODX itself (of course) and phpThumbOf. Though that last one doesn’t seem to be the problem, because I’m using that output filter on other pages and it works fine there. Also, thumbnails and images appear properly inside the filemanager and an Image TV.

    Anyways, I’m using several Gallery chunks on 1 page, outputting results with getResources:

    <h2>[[+pagetitle]]</h2>
<p>[[+introtext]]</p>
<ul class="album">
  [[!Gallery?
    &album=`[[+gallery_album]]`
    &thumbWidth=`150`
    &thumbHeight=`125`
    &useCss=`0`
  ]]      
</ul>


    This is the content of galItemThumb:

    <li><a href="[[+image]]" rel="lightbox-[[+album]]" title="[[+description]]"><img src="[[+thumbnail]]" width="150" height="125" alt=""></a></li>


    However, after the upgrade from 2.1RC4 to 2.1.1 PL, the phpThumb function of both the thumbnail and larger images seems to have stopped working! No images are visible anymore and when I click on one of those phpThumb generated links, I’m getting this message:

    {"success":false,"message":"Access denied.","total":0,"data":[],"object":[]}


    So I’ve checked the Gallery component and its Gallery TV: there are no thumbnails/images visible anymore! New images that are uploaded to the Gallery component are blank as well. Again, this only happened after the upgrade from 2.1RC4 tot 2.1.1 PL. Perhaps the phpThumb function of Gallery hasn’t been upgraded to 2.1.1 PL yet? Just guessing here. I could use all the help I can get. Thanks!

      I get exactly the same behaviour — the path to the image gives me:

      {"success":false,"message":"Access denied.","total":0,"data":[],"object":[]}

        Same here, in backend en frontend images are gone,
        in the filesystem they are there.

          This has been fixed in Gallery 1.2.0-rc2.

            Posting it here again just to be sure wink.

            The RC2 fix only works when you’re loggedin. When you’re logged out: blank.

            Shaun, thanks in advance for all these quick fixes!

                See this commit for a quick fix:

                I’ll have another update out later today that fixes this and a few other issues (such as batch zip uploading, etc).

                  Many thanks for all these updates, Shaun. I think I’m not the only one when I say Gallery really feels complete now smiley

                    I still have issues with revo 2.1.1pl and gallery 1.2.1pl, posted about them here:

                    I think my problem is based on the gallery.files_path/url which I have set outside of assets/components/gallery/files/ (I want to have my images in another place, where the other media stuff resides...), when I get a thumb/image path in the frontend and enter it in the browser address bar I get the following:

)


                    as far as I understand this errorlog, the problem lies in step 20

                    [20] => !$this->config_allow_src_above_docroot therefore setting "/home/account/public_html/client/assets/site/media/media.gallery/7/96.jpg" (outside "/home/account/public_html/client/assets/components/gallery") to null in file "phpthumb.class.php" on line 1066


                    Because of that I have set the system setting "phpthumb_allow_src_above_docroot" under core > phpthumb to "Yes" instead of "No" but when I do that I instantly recieve a 503 error when editing a gallery in the backend or want to view it in the frontend...some thumbnails are loaded but not all and they seem to be generated very slowly (several minutes for under 10 images)

                    so I tried to comment out the critical section in phpthumb.class.php beginning @line 1066:

                    if (!$this->config_allow_src_above_docroot && !preg_match('#^'.preg_quote(str_replace(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, '/', realpath($this->config_document_root))).'#', $AbsoluteFilename)) {
			$this->DebugMessage('!$this->config_allow_src_above_docroot therefore setting "'.$AbsoluteFilename.'" (outside "'.realpath($this->config_document_root).'") to null', __FILE__, __LINE__);
			return false;
		}


                    but when I do this, thumbnails are still loaded only partwise and painfully slow in the frontend. In the backend, I don’t see any galleries anymore when clicking on the components > gallery menuitem...so I can’t do this...

                    I really don’t know from which direction I have to address this problem...is it a problem of phpthumb, modx system settings, server hard-/software or the gallery snippet?

                    EDIT: Because of this thread: http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,65706.0.html I also checked my Filemanager to see if the thumbs work there...they do but also are generated very slowly...this was never a problem in the versions before...what can be the reason for this?
