as a sidenote: using PHP5 isn't recommended yet unless you're comfortable with beta software and you know how to handle such errors, as they may happen with other PHP-based software as well.

we don't do direct support by email - it'd defeat the purpose of a board (enabling others to benefit from solutions that worked for you). What is it you have issues with? Post a link to your site and an exact error message.
You shouldn't use the outdated version cpg1.2.x - upgrade recommended.

alright sorry, I wasn't sure how u guys deal with detail help.

ok here is the error I get when i try to do 'batch add'

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare scandir() in /www/virtualhosts/www.freeride.org.vt.edu/coppermine/searchnew.php on line 309

and like I said before, I read through the posted info, but I don't know much about php, and don't know what where and how to change, so I was wondering if someone could guide me through it

thanx again

Upgrade to 1.3.2.

ddanj · « **Reply #8 on:** December 29, 2004, 12:17:29 am »

Please read posts before u reply

like i said before - I read through previous threads on this matter, including that one.
so can anyone help?

kegobeer · « **Reply #9 on:** December 29, 2004, 01:22:24 am »

Yeah, you were really specific on what solutions you've tried.

The function scandir is in the file searchnew.php. If you aren't using php5, which has a function called scandir, then you need to track down where another function named scandir is being declared.

And you should upgrade to 1.3.2, which will most likely solve your problem anyway.

Go into Admin tools -> phpinfo.

You must be in Admin mode to see admin buttons. If you can't see them, add this filename to the end of your gallery URL:
util.php

ddanj · « **Reply #14 on:** December 29, 2004, 06:15:04 am »

still don't see 'phpinfo'

here's what i see

kegobeer · « **Reply #15 on:** December 29, 2004, 02:11:20 pm »

Create a php script with this:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

Upload it to your site and run it.

@TranzNDance: cpg1.2.x didn't come with phpinfo, on the cpg1.2 support board you should ask people to look this up: http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/faq.php#VersionPHP

@ddanj: I wouldn't fumble with the PHP version (especially if you have no clue how to find out about your php version - you won't be able to change it if you're not administering your own server), but rather do as suggested several times already: upgrade your coppermine version to the most recent stable release cpg1.3.2

ddanj · « **Reply #17 on:** December 29, 2004, 05:48:01 pm »

alright, then I will do that. So this version fixes this error i'm having as well, right? (just want to make sure)

thanx again

Joachim Müller · « **Reply #18 on:** December 29, 2004, 06:46:48 pm »

That's what kegobeer already told you, isn't it?

ddanj · « **Reply #19 on:** December 29, 2004, 10:18:19 pm »

alright, i downloaded cpg1.3.2.zip

now how do I upgrade? do i have to unzip the files and overwrite the current stuff on the server?? do i have to go through the whole setup again? will all my pictures be lost? how do I do this?
