When following the normal System Admin > Modules install procedure I’m getting an Install error towards the end of the install log:

‘Failed to execute xoops_module_install_myalbum’
(curiously followed by ‘myAlbum installed successfully’ at the very end).

Subsequent attempts to access any of the myalbum menu functions results in ‘Page isn’t Working HTTP Error 500’

I think I’ve installed the downloaded module directories correctly? :
/xoops/modules/myalbum (code base)
/xoops/modules/sitemap
/xoops/modules/tag
/xoops/includes/ myalbum (containing /photos & /watermarks)

I’ve given everything the widest set of permissions (0777);
/xoops/includes owner:group is set to www-data:ww-data for everything
/xoops/modules owner:group is set to root:root for everything

Module access rights have been granted for Admin User under Groups.

I have also installed xLanguage, Publisher and QRcode which work fine.

I get the same error with myAlbum-P (3.07 RC 2).

What have I got wrong – has anyone else got this problem or is it just me ?!

DEBUG MESSAGES

I recommend you to use wggallery module which is much nicer and more advanced.

UPDATE

Even on a clean build with no other Modules added and no Updates to the core modules, the install still fails with:

Failed to execute xoops_module_install_myalbum

Debug:

Thanks for the tip - wggallery is very impressive.
However, I picked myAlbum-P because it allows any MIME type/file extension to be specified, such as .pdf .docx .wav. It is also cloneable.
As well as image files, I want to create a clone in order to upload audio files (.ogg .mp3).
Do you know of any other module that can do this ? (I think it is why myAlbum-P remains such a popular module).

Hi

try the latest myalbum version from Github. I test in my local server and it install fine

Thanks, this worked for me, problem solved !

If you're interested, you can test the recent changes that I've made to MyAlbum:
