Title: intermediate pictures on pre-uploaded albums?
Post by: clubmed on January 30, 2005, 05:18:25 pm

I have a coppermine gallery with some 49 albums and 2499 pictures.

Now I am wondering if I can set intermediate pictures retroactively?

(In other words, all the photos that have been uploaded until now do not have intermediate pictures, is there a way to do it even after having uploaded pictures?)

Yes, enabled intermedaite pics and then use admin tools to build them.

Thank you, which admin tools should I use to build them?

The Admin Tools.  It's a link on your admin menu bar.

I can't seem to find Admin Tools? (Yes I am the administrator :) )

I wasn't sure if 1.2 had that link.  You'll have to upload to 1.3.2 to use those tools.

Would upgrading require a lot of work with a gallery of 50 albums and 2500 pics ?

Whats coppermine version do you have?  What theme are you using?

Have you tried using the classic theme?

This pic is from classic.

--day late and dollar short-- nevermind this post.  I didn't realize it was already in the 1.2 support board.

No.  It's very easy.  Download the zip 1.3.2 from this site and read the documentation (/docs/index.htm).  Just a matter of backing up your db and original files, then uploading all the new files according to the instructions and executing a script.

@donnoman - Same here.  Maybe I should've read the board name before I posted the first time.   ;)

Okay I have upgraded to the latest version of coppermine.

Now after I choose a specific size for my intermediate pictures, what do I do in Admin Tools?

Damn why is my config.php page so short all of a sudden? I can't see the 'apply changes' button of whatever it's called and the page will only load up until the Thumbnail View box

Did you upload the config.php file when you upgraded? I'm wondering if you confused it with include/config.inc.php, which you do not need to upload.

Title: Re: intermediate pictures on pre-uploaded albums?
Post by: clubmed on January 30, 2005, 08:00:06 pm

Yes I mixed it up, I didn't copy the new config.php file that's in the root folder, I did that now and all seems to be well.

There's only one problem, I forgot to backup include/config.inc.php is that going to be a big problem?

Title: Re: intermediate pictures on pre-uploaded albums?
Post by: Tranz on January 30, 2005, 08:07:04 pm

If all is well, then you're okay. If there were an issue with config.inc.php file, you couldn't view your gallery.

all seems to be well, its working.

I am also rebuilind the albums with intermediate pictures. anyway to apply changes to the whole gallery instead of album by album?

Title: Re: intermediate pictures on pre-uploaded albums?
Post by: kegobeer on January 30, 2005, 08:29:52 pm

Not that I'm aware of.

Title: Re: intermediate pictures on pre-uploaded albums?
Post by: Tranz on January 30, 2005, 08:34:33 pm

With 2499 pictures, there will probably be issues trying to process them. You could encounter timeouts, or your webhost's wrath.

Okay too bad.

One more question:

I am currently rebuilding each album to add the intermediate pictures that I did not have before. From time to time, I get this error:

Warning: chmod(): Operation not permitted in /home/***/public_html/***/include/picmgmt.inc.php on line 224

Either way it's all working, just wondering about that occiasional error while rebuilding?

if everything else works, there's no need to worry about this message.

Okay, I tried to continue rebuilding the albums and now I get errors such as these:

ERROR creating:$thumb
ERROR creating:$normal

Also, the images no longer show up after I try to rebuild an album, instead I get the famous red X.

It was working yesterday :(
Whats going on?

Had to switch to GD2 for it to work today, even though it worked with ImageMagick last night?

I have just attempted to upload the first album since I upgraded. After setting the right permissions I went to 'Batch Add File' but I can't see the file?

Has the upload location been changed with the newer version of coppermine? It wont show the files i upload to 'userpics' but will show them when i upload into 'albums'. ??

Title: Re: intermediate pictures on pre-uploaded albums?
Post by: Tranz on February 05, 2005, 10:57:41 am

You weren't ever meant to upload into userpics. It is just enforced in the newer versions to prevent people from uploading to userpics. Please read the manual.

Ooops I see, thanks! What exaclty is the 'userpics' folder meant for?

That's where Coppermine puts your member's pictures.
