thanks!

XoopsGallery NetPBM Installation Error!
I've tried multiple galleries, good installation gone through, but once i get to check netpbm, it gets screwed up. I'm putting in the right dir, or so it seems, but it never gives me a good answer.

This is exactly what it gives me on the "Check NetPBM":



This is what your system reports:

This is the type of system PHP was compiled on:
Linux host.radioaktif.net 2.4.20-31.9smp #1 SMP Tue Apr 13 17:40:10 EDT 2004 i686

Make sure that the values above make sense to you.

Look for keywords like "Linux", "Windows", "FreeBSD", etc. in the output above. If both the attempts above failed, you should ask your ISP what operating system you are using. You can check via Netcraft, they can often tell you.

You told the config wizard that your NetPBM binaries live here:

/home/journey/public_html/netpbm
If that is not right (or if it is blank), re-run the configuration wizard and enter a location for NetPBM.

Note: Your NetPBM directory (/home/journey/public_html/netpbm) is not in your open_basedir list (specified in php.ini):

/home/journey/
/usr/lib/php
/usr/local/lib/php
/tmp
So we can't perform all of our basic checks on the files to make sure that they exist and they're executable.


We are going to test each NetPBM binary individually. If you see errors, you should click here to see more details

If you see an error above complaining about reading or writing to /home/journey/public_html/modules/xoopsgallery/cache/tmp/gallerydbgt1ehLJ, then this is likely a permission/configuration issue on your system. If it mentions open_basedir then it's because your system is configured with open_basedir enabled. You should talk to your system administrator about this, or see the Gallery Help Page

For other errors, please refer to the list of possible responses in FAQ 4.4 to get more information.

This is a known issue with gallery and is very troublesome on servers that don't fully support netpbm.

If you must use netpbm, you will need to place it in your /cgi-bin since it is executable.

Try to use GD 1 or GD 2. Your host should be configured for this package with nothing that needs to be done by you.
