Failed create G2 user w/ extId [admin]. ERROR_BAD_PARAMETER

this happened after i did I user export from phpNuke to G2

full error message:

Quote: › Failed to create G2 user with extId [admin]. Here is the error message from G2:
Error (ERROR_BAD_PARAMETER)
in modules/core/classes/GalleryEmbed.class at line 259 (gallerystatus::error)
in index.html at line 212 (galleryembed::createuser)
in /homepages/41/d119367445/htdocs/modules.php at line 56

when I try to browse directly to it via
http://www.tkenuxi.org/modules/gallery2/ (regardless of login status)
i get

Quote: › You can't access this file directly...

when I try via
http://www.tkenuxi.org/modules.php?name=gallery2
I get the first (ERROR_BAD_PARAMETER) error message.

when not logged in as admin (or as any user also), I get forwarded to
http://www.tkenuxi.org/modules/gallery2/upgrade/
and it seems to loop the upgrade process infinitely

contents of gallery2.cfg:

Code: › <?
$g2embedparams = array (
'embedphpfile' => '/homepages/41/d119367445/htdocs/modules/gallery2',
'embedUri' => 'http://www.tkenuxi.org/modules.php?name=gallery2',
'relativeG2Path' => 'modules/gallery2/',
'loginRedirect' => 'modules.php?name=Your_Account',
'activeUserId' => '0',
);
$g2mainparams = array (
'showSidebar' => 'true',
);
$g2configurationdone = 'true'; ?>

any suggestions? thanks in advance Smile

do you have a nuke user named "admin"?

no, and I tried creating an "admin" w/ "admin" as the id, but it yields the same error message

i also tried creating a normal user with "admin" as the id, and it yields the same error

dari

did you already have a nuke user with "admin" as the id? the id should be numeric.

no I didn't originally have a phpNuke user w/ such a login

i deleted the admin and user accounts (login: admin) i created after receiving the error message originally

still gives me the same error

Code: › if (empty($extUserId) || empty($args['username'])) {
return GalleryStatus::error(ERROR_BAD_PARAMETER, __FILE__, __LINE__);
}

from modules/core/classes/GalleryEmbed.class
looks like that's what is causing the error... but I can't figure out what specifically is trying to be passed to that function

i've tried changing the "Gallery Administrator" user in g2_User.g_username from "admin" to my login... tried a few other experimental things... can't find any significant instance of "admin" in any of my nuke_ tables... tried a few experimental things... all winding up w/ the same error message as in the first post

this is killing me... it works standalone when not installed into the modules directory

when i try going to it directly it attempts to go to gallery2/updates

wow

Has anyone figured this problem out? When installing Gallery2 you must make your admin user name "admin" in the setup. Is there something I'm missing because I get the same error:

Failed to create G2 user with extId [admin]. Here is the error message from G2:
Error (ERROR_BAD_PARAMETER)
in modules/core/classes/GalleryEmbed.class at line 259 (gallerystatus::error)

did you get this when exporting, or viewing G2 for the first time?

I got it when viewing for the first time, and exporting solved it.
