Gallery causes Unexpected Token

Hi there! Long time, first time poster... and I am in need of some wisdom.

I just installed MODX Revo then installed Gallery. Here's what's bothering me:

When I go in Components > Gallery, a pop-up appears, titled "Error" and indicating "Unexpected token <: " and nothing else.

Also, for some reason, when I click on any link on the top navigation, it acts as though it removes "manager/" from the URL (exemple: when I click on "Package Management" the link sends me to "http://somegenericwebsitename.com/?a=60" instead of "http://thesamegenericwebsitename.com/manager/?a=60"

Does this ring any bells?

I hope these informations can help:

PHP v. 5.2.17 with CGI API
Apache v. 2.2.21
OS: Linux
MySql v. 5.1.56-log

MODX Revolution 2.2.4-pl (traditional)
Packages installed:
Gallery
Wayfinder
getREsources
TinyMCE

EDIT-- On Chrome, the console shows this message:
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
http://(...)/assets/components/gallery/connector.php?action=mgr/album/getNodes&id=root

I checked connector.php's permissions, they're set to 755. I'm completely stumped. [ed. note: dongaspacho last edited this post 14 years, 1 month ago.]

Fixed it by changing the permissions of /assets and /assets/components from 777 to 755.

Thanks for reporting that. I'm sure it will help someone.

PLEASE, PLEASE specify the version of MODX you are using.

I'm so glad you ran into this before I did

And yes it helped me big time, I really wouldn't have known where to look, I uninstalled gallery like 5 times, deleted cache, re-ran setup and nothing, until I found this post.

Cheers!

Thanks dongaspacho, that helped me too. I wonder why this error happen anyway, I thought the assets and assets/compontents/ directories were supposed to be 777 ?

It depends on the host. If the host is running suPHP or something similar, it's 755 for directories and 644 for files. They will reject 777 for directories as insecure.

Thank you for this valuable information BobRay, I plan to build many websites on this server so it saved me a lots of hassle!
