  1. I am getting a "Path is not a directory: /gallery/images" error when I have finished uploading the files and folders to my ftp and I try to go to my website. Could you help...I'm stuck.

  2. The path to your gallery does need to be set to chmod 777 so that you can write to it, and if you have that chmod 777 then your image path should be relative to your uploader folder.

    Example:
    if your images folder is here
    /gallery/images/

    then your path from the upload area would be

    ../images/

    because you upload folder is located at
    /gallery/uploader/

    Hope that makes sense.

  3. Hi there,

    I want to use e2 photo gallery on my Windows Server, but i get the same message "Path is not a directory:..."

    I red that on my webserv chmod is not available, instead i have pre-existent folders with standard attributes:
    cgi-bin: reading and performance permissions
    This folder can contain files which need performance permissions, such as cgi (written in Perl) and some Php files. It doesn't have any writing permissions, but the files inside it are reachable via browser.

    mdb-database: writing permissions
    This folder must contain the databases: it is not reachable via browser therefore the pages put inside it will not be reachable but, at the same time, the databases contained inside it will not be downloadable.

    Public: writing and reading permissions
    This folder must contain all the files on which it is necessary to write, to carry out manipulation procedures via script, to create on-the-fly files through the supported languages: forums, guestbook, counters and similar ones which use textual files to be modified have to be entered in this folder, or subfolders, or the writing output has to be directed to this folder.

    App_Data: writing permissions
    The App_Data folder is, in the framework, the default folder used in order to position all the data sources: if you would like to use an application (for ex., a forum) for the data storage, you have to use this folder which have the same configuration of mdb-database folder (therefore the files inside this folder are not accessible by browser).

    Which one should i use for e2 photo gallery?

    thank

  4. Probably the Public: writing and reading permissions. Or if you're not able to user the uploader because of server configuration, you can always simply use ftp to upload your images to the correct folders. The downside is you'll have to do the resizing of the photos before hand, but the gallery works independently of the uploader.

  7. If you made edits to the index.php it's possible that you edited something to cause the error. I'd need to see the index.php to see what you've edited.
