Gallery 2.2.2 is now available for download. As a minor stability release it adds no new features and includes bug fixes only.
Over 30 bugs have been fixed in this stability release. Some highlights are:
- WebDAV with OS X / GNOME clients - Items not recognized as images
- Broken fallback theme / theme reset functionality
- Fatal PHP error in fetchWebPage() on too many redirects
- Broken rewrite rule for embedded core.DownloadItem
- Broken Upgrade Code for IBM DB2 / MS SQL Server
Read on for more details and upgrade instructions...
Important note for IBM DB2 users:
The upgrade code requires DB2 v9 or later (not v8.2 as previously communicated). As before, the pagesize needs to be 32k.
Upgrading is quick and easy, but if you're upgrading from 2.1 or earlier there are a few things you should know first so be sure to scan the upgrading instructions. Upgrading from Gallery 2.2 or 2.2.1 is even easier since you don't need to replace all your gallery2/ files, but changed files only.
As always before you ask for help, please, please read the README -- we've made an effort to answer all of your questions there. Especially read the known issues section.
Although Gallery 2.2.2 does not come with any new features, Gallery 2.2 had some major additions compared to older releases. See What's new in the Gallery 2.2 release series?.
You don't have to wait for the next major version (Gallery 2.3) to get new features though. Some of the features that will be added in Gallery 2.3 are also available for Gallery 2.2 via Downloadable Plugins from the experimental repository.
