Hi peterr,

I am very frustrated with this program, I have treated all the XCGALLERY versions, but anything works.

The version of PHP in the server is:
===========================
Operating system Linux
Kernel version: 2.4.21-4.EL
Apache version 1.3.34 (Unix)
PERL version 5.8.0
PHP version 4.3.10
MySQL version 4.0.25-standard
==============================

Thank you for all the help until we install xcgalerry together

Regards,
David

I Just checked your site and I have say nothingwill work unless you first create albums.
(edit - wrong link)
let me find the right one

Access the xcgal admin by going to Administration/modules/xcGallery. Create a category(s) for your albums. Then create albums in the categories. Then go to a specific album and 'batch upload'.

I thought I had a post somewhere clearly covering this but I haven't time to find it - got to go to work.


Cheers

Hi jensclas,

Yes, the albums is ready, I create 2 albums.
I believe the problem is the PHP version on the server.
I don't know how to update the PHP, because I rent the hosting.

David,

Yes, as you have now a category and album, and still have the error, then we can rule out those two factors as the cause.

The php site is very clear about the scandir() function, it's only for php5, so if I downloaded the corect xcgallery (1RC1), it was using _that_ function, and there is no way it will work without php5.

Updating your server to use php5 is not really the answer, especially on a shared server, and certainly not for one line of code (the scandir() function).

I downloaded the xcgallery that is mentioned in this news story, checked out the code that does the uploading via batch, and there is a new function called xcscandir() , which does the recursive search for files, in short, 'the php4 way' of doing it.

Now, one thing I'm not sure on at all, is I think that version is for XOOPS 2.2.x, but it may also be okay for XOOPS 2.0.13.2 (as the version you are using is the recommended version). Possibly the author of the module may be able to tell you, or someone else who uses xcGallery with php4.x and XOOPS 2.0.13.2
