Hello,I

Post by Soulfly »

Hello,

I have setup Phoca 1.2 on a previous site, Joomla 1.5RC3 with no problems at all. However, I just tried to set up Phoca 1.3.0 on Joomla 1.5.0 and it isn't creating thumbs or giving me a category listing....

::My gallery link::

Any info you can provide would be *greatly* appreciated!!

Many thanks,

Josh M.

How did you install the Phoca Gallery (update via ftp, or new install)?

Pleas look at your database, if there are both Phoca Gallery tables:
pref_phocagallery
pref_phocagallery_categories

Yes...

look at the phocagallery_categories table, if there are some items
look at the folder image/phocagallery, if there are some thumbs folders and some files in these folders...

Jan,

How do you check the phocagallery_categories table? I'm using cPanel 11, sorry!!

There isn't anything in image/phocagallery...

I really appreciate the help!

- try to use phpmyad

- try to use phpmyadmin to see the table items
- if there is nothing in image/phocagallery folder, it seems like you:

a) cannot create thumbnails (some GD problem)
b) you cannot write (upload) images to the server

do you see the original files in image/phocagallery folder?

I don't think I have a GD problem... I have this domain/Gallery setup in a dir of public_html of buildinghsv.com and it works fine: http://www.cjsconcrete.com/index.php?op ... s&Itemid=6 5

However, when I installed it v1.2/Joomla 1.5RC3 it did the same thing, didn't create anything in images/phocagallery. I created those categories in images/phocogallery, gave each a thumbs dir, uploaded the buttons etc and seems like I did something else but I can't recall but it worked fine then... As you can see, it created the thumbs and slideshow works beautifully...

Should I try version 1.2 maybe?

I'm trying to look at the table items but it seems I don't have phpmyadmin anymore...

Get right back to you on that...

Thanks again, I really can't wait to get this working on Buildinghsv; it's my dad's company site and the gallery is the highlight of the whole thing really....
