Hey All!

I have registered on a free webhosting website, and i set up Coppermine Photo Gallery up there. I have encountered 1 problem so far. Whenever I try to upload a photo I can't, I get this error msg: 0 uploads were successful. I did the CHMOD changes on every single folder I had to, the Gallery is working otherwise. If anyone would be able to suggest where i went wrong i would appreciate it. Also, since the server hasnt got ImageMagick or GD Graphics Library I was wondering if there is any way to overcome this problem. Thnx for everyone for reading my problem

If you don't have GD or imagemagick then you'd need to create the thumbnails and intermediate pics yourself prior to upload.

Would you please be able to descriobe it, how I could do that or even point me to a direction where I could start my research? Thanks!

basically, if you don't have GD nor ImageMagick, you don't have the minimum requirements to run coppermine. Still trying to use it would mean a lot of workarounds - only recommended if you know your way around. Still, here's the basic explanation: you then can't use http upload nor XP_Publisher upload, but only FTP-upload plus batch-add. Only you as admin can upload at all, your users can't. To add a file named "myfile.jpg" for example, you have to create on your client a file "normal_myfile.jpg" in the intermediate resolution and a file named "thumb_myfile.jpg" in the resolution for the thumbnail (using a tool like IrfanView). Then you upload all three files to your webserver (using FTP) and use batch-add. Sounds complicated? It is. As I said above: not recommended. Imo you get what you pay for when you decide to use free webhosting. You might want to look into http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=5721.0 as well.
