Good day,

I successfully installed coppermine galley module to my site but in module administrator I cant get in (blank page is coming out)

That sounds like a mismatch between your nuke version and coppermine version. PHP-Nuke changed its administration structure between 7.4 and 7.5 and then slightly again in 7.6.

I am guessing it is not picking up the case.php file. So, you are probably running an older nuke but with a newer coppermine?

Too dull for me sir montego, I forgot to change the original admin.php to my personaladmin.php...

I got it installed but when I try to configure my gallery the configure working area is so wide almost 3 times the size of my screen, its hard to see the options. How to change the length of this configure page?

I am going to go out on a limb and guess that it has to do with coppermine's produced HTML is not XHTML 1.0 transitional compliant. Just in the module at your site I found this line (yes I added a space in the words "link" and "href"):

<l ink rel="stylesheet" h ref="modules/coppermine/themes/default/style.css">

That is buried deep within the module code and the only proper placement of that is between the "head" tags at the top.

So, I suspect that your admin page is doing the same and so the CSS file has not been read, which could be jacking up your formatting.

Sorry sir but I dont get the idea, what should I do? Embarassed

unwired, unfortunately I do not have time to fix other module author's code to be compliant (right now), so maybe see if this changes things for the better:

=== OPEN ===

header.php

=== FIND CODE ===

Code:




    echo '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"'."\n".' "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">'."\n";


    echo '<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">'."\n";

=== REPLACE WITH ===

Code:




    echo "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN\">\n";


    echo "<html>\n";

=== DONE ===

As always, take a backup of your files before you muck with them so that you can get them back quickly.

are you using coppermine for nuke ver 1.3.1c? It's the only version I can get to work.

The large table size you see is due to the length of paths not wrapping in the debug mode. Turn off debugging in coppermine config and those large tables should disappear.

no way! you rock!

Now i just need to figure out why picture descriptions aren't wrapping. <grrr>

Have a Happy Nuking Day!

Both of you rock.. Cheers

Btw, I set my album folder to 777 but when I tried to upload pics it says that "Can't create folder"...

We all rock!

chmod your albums/userpics folder to 777 too.

And, when you do batch uploads, and create a dir such as
albums/userpics/2007summerholiday ... then 2007summerholiday also needs to be chmod to 777.

I'll try it.

Speaking of coppermine ...
I'm testing rn on a new server and I can't get coppermine to upload a picture, even as god user and I've checked a dozen times for permissions.
As it all works on my php4/mysql4 server, I think this issue has to do with mysql 5 in strict mode... and since this is a shared server I can't get to the my.ini file to turn strict mode off to test my theory.

Has anyone else had this issue with coppermine and mysql 5 in strict mode?
I'm guessing there are invalid or empty values trying to submit to mysql that, in strict mode, will no longer accept those values.

I'm still looking for someone who has successfully installed coppermine for nuke ver 1.3.1c in a mysql5 strict mode environment, or anyone who can confirm my strict mode issue.

Also, the comment output, the non-wrapping textarea, might be due to a compliance issue ... once RN is compliant, older noncompliances would show up and need fixing? Is this right?
