Serveral forum web sites allow search by author's name to locate posts by that author. It is a nice feature that I did not seen in XOOPS advance search.

Good Solution! Thanks for posting it.

Menalto.Gallery.com and Coppermine.sourceforge.net, both advise that there should be no spaces in your path name to programs such as ImageMagick or Jhead.

I had the same problem when I downloaded and installed XoopsGallery 1.3.3.6 (tgz) (tar ball file) on 4/30/05.

I did not have the problem when downloaded xoopsgallery-1_3_3_6.zip (zip file). After checking it several times in both Linux and Windows XP, I think the tar ball file was bad, and that is why the module did not show up in Xoops/Administration Module.

Photo/Image Gallery modules that appear to be supported with on-going development:

MyAlbum-P, v. 2.84, rel. 10/4/2004, by GiJoe
V.2.84 is the most recent of several releases.
GiJoe appears to be a major contributor & module developer in the XOOPS community.

XoopsGallery, v. 1.3.3.6, rel. 4/21/2005
XoopsGallery has the most frequent, recent releases and appears to enjoy on-going development by a development team.

XcGallery, RC 1.1, rel. 4/28/2004, by Gregory DeMar.
Works with XOOPS 2.0+ and it ports Coppermine v.1.1.
(Note: The current version of Coppermine is v. 1.3.3, rel. 4/20/2005)
"Re: is xcgal still being developed?"
"Next version of Coppermine Photo Gallery - 1.4 will be XOOPS ready."

Galeria, v.1.2.6, rel 4/28/2004, by Goghs.
I have not determined if Galeria is being developed further by Goghs. Goghs appears to be a significant contributor and developer in the XOOPS community. Goghs' URL leads to www.uskola.com, which offers web site development and management services. www.uskola.com is in Spanish.

Newbie seeks multi-user photo gallery for high volume site.

There was one thread last year asking which image gallery was the best. But, there were only a few short replys without much information.

POLL:
I've found four modules in the Module section.
Which one do you like or use?

Xoopsgallery (seems like a Menalto Gallery port)
xcGallery (seems like a Coppermine port)
MyAlbum-P
Galeria

In blissful ignorance, this Noob says: Sounds like a blog or forum module would do it.

I have experienced a lot of blank pages when using various photo gallery modules in Xoops.

For me the problem was PHP5. These module were not updated to be compatible with PHP5. As soon as I downgraded to PHP4, the blank pages did not occur.

It was a completely new install of Xoops.
But, you were right.
I downloaded a new copy of XOOPS and installed it.
The error messages did not reappear and all is well.
Thanks.

Running Xandros 3.0 with Linux Kernel 2.6.9
Installed Lampp (Xampp) which is a preconfigured combination of Apache/Mysql/PHP/Perl/phpMyAdmin.
That install went great. Apache is up. phpMyAdmin let me create a MySql database schema called Xoops1.

I copied XOOPS into the htdocs directory. Then I can go thru all the installation screens for XOOPS with "Green boxes" right up until the very end when the database tables are created. Then I get the following error messages.

-------------------
Warning: main(/opt/lampp/htdocs/xoops/class/database/mysqldatabase.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /opt/lampp/htdocs/xoops/install/class/dbmanager.php on line 28

(My Note: The files dbmanager.php and databasefactory.php are present in the directories indicated by the Warnings.
But, Mysqldatabase.php does not exist.)
-------------

I'm using software versions:
Lampp 1.4.13
MySql 4.1.11
Apache 2.0.53
myPhpAdmin 2.6.1
Xandros 3.0 (Linux Kernel 2.6.9)
Using PHP4 or PHP5 still returns the same XOOPS error.
Xoops 2.0.10
-------------

I did not find much in the forums about these error messages.

Help. Thanks!
