Title: Images from outside basedir
Post by: Z0r0 on November 24, 2003, 04:11:12 am
Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to have an albums directory outside the apache base directory.
For instance, if my apache basedir is at /var/www/htdocs, and I want Coppermine to read images from e:\pics (it's a cygwin apache install).  
If I point Coppermine to the directory, it can read the images, built thumbnails, etc. but it posts them using the absolute url:  e:/pics/etc...
I know it's possible to use aliases to point apache to urls outside the basedir, but then it seems Coppermine would still use absolute path instead of the alias).  Any suggestions?

Thanks.
