I just installed coppermine 1.3.2 on: http://www.angorabeach.com/fotoalbum/

But when I try to change and save the config.php (http://www.angorabeach.com/fotoalbum/config.php) it goes to http://www.angorabeach.com/config.php and I get an error because this is not where the config.php is located.

Is this a known problem?

[Hein Traag]

I assume you read the docs, searched the board from top to bottom and then posted your question here ?

It says you don't have permission etc.. you sure you set all the right chmod rights ?

[Flipper01]

The settings are all correct, its just that when I try to update the config.php it goes back one directory.

My photoalbum is installed on: http://www.angorabeach.com/fotoalbum/
When pressing the 'save new configuration' button I'm redirected to http://www.angorabeach.com/config.php instead of http://www.angorabeach.com/fotoalbum/config.php

It's not that I get errors, I just get redirected to the wrong directory

[Casper]

there are some server setups that redirect all 'config' to the root.  try changing the name of config.php to something completely different, browse to it, and see if that works.  If it does, you will have to change the links in theme.php accordingly.

This has been changed in the next version.

I just tried it, but it keeps sending me back to the root.. :s

Use your database tool, and check the config table.  Look for the 'ecards_more_pic_target', and check it is the full url to you gallery, not just to your  home page.  Edit it if required.

I tried lots of things, but I think it has something to do with the server. I host the fotoalbum on Lycos..

check phpinfo: try to find out if you have $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SCRIPT_NAME']

I checked this link: http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=2712

Read the thread and did the following:

in include/init.inc.php, search for

// Initialise the $CONFIG array and some other variables
$CONFIG = array();
$PHP_SELF = isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['REDIRECT_URL']) ? $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['REDIRECT_URL'] : $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SCRIPT_NAME'];
$REFERER = urlencode($PHP_SELF . (isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING']) && $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'] ? '?' . $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'] : ''));
$ALBUM_SET = '';
$FORBIDDEN_SET = '';
$CURRENT_CAT_NAME = '';
$CAT_LIST = '';

and replace it with

// Initialise the $CONFIG array and some other variables
$CONFIG = array();
$PHP_SELF = isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['REDIRECT_URL']) ? $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['REDIRECT_URL'] : $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'];
$REFERER = urlencode($PHP_SELF . (isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING']) && $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'] ? '?' . $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'] : ''));
$ALBUM_SET = '';
$FORBIDDEN_SET = '';
$CURRENT_CAT_NAME = '';
$CAT_LIST = '';

  And it works for my and probably all other Lycos users!!

thnx a lot!

[Flipper01]

Damn, it's not working completely..

I still get the error when:
- Switching from user to admin mode
- Batch add files
- Updating groups

Besides that I get a strange error when I try to view a file.

This is the link to my gallery: http://angorabeach.davestolk.com/fotos/cpg132/
I created a test account: login: test, pass: test

That's a custom theme you have.  Try switching to the classic theme, enable debug, and see what happens.

it's the same to me. Every time. Even if i changed the source code... Maybe it won't works at all under lycos!

[rphMedia]

Hmm, I have a similar problem and decided to live with it.  The reference post is here -
http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=13405.msg61766#msg61766

I contacted my host and here's their response -

I apologize for the delay, it was very busy today -- apparently
when you have a directory which points to a folder -- such as
how ourphotogallery.org is pointed to the "/gallery" folder --
you cannot have a file called "config.php".

Because of how that domain needs to be configured on the server
it is not possible to have a file of this name in its root
directory.

The difference between your domain name and the one we gave you is because the domain is already
pointed to that folder.

I realize this sounds silly or like I'm simply trying to brush
this issue off, but this has actually come down from the server
administrators.  This is what they have told us.  You'll be able
to replicate this behavior if you point the subdomain to the
/gallery directory, or if you create another folder, point the
subdomain to said folder, and put a file in it called
"config.php".

I apologize for the confusion.

If you have any further questions do not hesitate to contact us.

I still don't buy that, but I can access the config.php file using the original domain and folder.

[Joachim Müller]

This has been reported before - on some webserver configurations, you can't use the file name "config.php" - we found out about this after the release of cpg1.3.x. For future releases, the file name of the config screen has been changed to avoid such difficulties. As a workaround, you can rename the file config.php to "foobar.php" (in other words: any file name you can think of that doesn't collide with filenames already used by coppermine) and then change the reference to it (the link from the admin menu that points to "config.php", to be edited in themes/yourtheme/theme.php), or you could then directly access the config page by manuall entering the new file name in the address bar of your browser.
We (the coppermine dev team) are sorry that the filename causes trouble for some users, but after all it's not us who are to blame, but webhost that have a "silly" webserver configuration that disallows the usage of certain valid file names.

HTH

[rphMedia]

OK thanks, makes sense.  Like I said, another workaround is to login at my host root and it's fine.
You guys (dev team) don't need to be sorry at all.  This is the ultimate in Gallery packages out there; and I haven't found a single glitch in the entire structure. I have the 1.4 beta running also (playing around with it) waiting patiently for its final release!  Thanks for all the (hard volunteer) work on this. I still can't believe it's free.

[smallseb]

I thinlk i totally agree with you, and blame my host!
Thank you for all the hard work you make for us, the time you spend answering question...for troubles you don't made!
