Hi!
I'm a newbie here... and I don't understand a squeep og how to innstall gallery.
I have made a emty config.php and .htaccess file and when I'm starting the configuration wizard I get a this message:

"Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webadmin@lycos-europe.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log."

what can I do or what is wrong?

Thanks in advanced
Regards Goggen

ERROR message may be caused by the .htaccess file. Delete it, and try to install without it. If you can start the install process then the file is at fault.

We would need to know HOW you are creating the empty .htaccess file, to fix your problem.

I still get the same error message.
To create the .htaccess file I make a new .txt file and rename it to .htaccess...

you're hosting your site on lycos? they may not allow you to create htaccess files. look in their FAQ and find out.

just checked, you may have to use their program to create an empty one:
http://www.tripod.lycos.co.uk/support/f ... y=htaccess

kinda dumb, but hey...it's their server.

also, i think that the latest Gallery RC (1.4-RC1) doesn't require you to create a blank htaccess/config.php file. try using it instead.

*sukks* hmmm... this is some bad things... hehe uploaded the 1.4-RC1... got past the internal server error.... but now I have TONNS of warnings and stuff... allmost pissed my pants.. hehe.... *shokk*

Serious Warning!
Safe Mode is enabled on this server. You must disable it before you can use Gallery. Refer to the FAQ, the forums, and the help page on the Gallery website and the PHP website for assistance.

Note: In some rare circumstances, Gallery thinks that safe mode is on, when it's really off. You can see for yourself by looking in the Local column of the safe_mode row in the PHP Info page. If it says 'Off' or '0' or 'undefined' then it's possible that Gallery made a mistake and you can continue. If not, then you must resolve this problem before you can use Gallery.

Warning!
Apache is not obeying your .htaccess file. Try entering the following into your web server's httpd.conf file:

<Directory /data/members/paid/d/i/dispach.net/htdocs/amlk/nuke/modules/gallery>
AllowOverride Options FileInfo
</Directory>

Warning!
Magic quotes are on. Your webserver owner can turn them off by putting :
magic_quotes_gpc = Off
in your php.ini file

Warning!
I can't find NetPBM. If it's installed and not in the path of the webserver user that's OK -- you can specify the path to NetPBM by hand on the following page. If it's not installed, you have two choices:Gallery prefers NetPBM version 9.9 and up. You can install just the binaries Gallery needs from Gallery on SourceForge. Or, you can compile and install the entire NetPBM package from NetPBM on SourceForge.
Note: You can install the binaries from the Gallery site even if you don't have root access on your box! If you can't get it working, try leaving the NetPBM path blank and using ImageMagick intead.

Warning!
I can't find ImageMagick. If it's installed and not in the path of the webserver user that's OK -- you can specify the path to ImageMagick by hand on the following page. If it's not installed, you must install it. Gallery prefers ImageMagick version 5.4.8 and up. You can compile and install the entire ImageMagick package from www.ImageMagick.org.
Note: They also have binaries available for assorted operating systems. If you can't get it working, try leaving the ImageMagick path blank and using NetPBM instead.

Warning!
I can't find jhead. If it's installed and not in the path of the webserver user that's OK -- you can specify the path to jhead by hand on the following page. If it's not installed, you can install it yourself. jhead is a public domain EXIF parser. Source, linux binaries, and windows binaries can be found at the jhead homepage.
Could not locate jhead

Warning!
I can't find jpegtran. If it's installed and not in the path of the webserver user that's OK -- you can specify the path to jpegtran by hand on the following page. If it's not installed, you can install it yourself. jpegtran is a freely distributable tool distributed by the Independent JPEG Group as part of libjpeg. Source may be found at the IJG homepage. Binaries may be found at the JPEG club website or in the libjpeg package of Linux distributions.

Oh dear - you won't be able to go much further with those errors!!!! Sad

agreed, gallery requires safe mode to be off to run. a huge host like lycos probably won't ever do that. i'd find a new host if you want to run gallery. (ditto for the imagemagik and netpbm, you won't be able to install those) Sad

actually, if i'm reading those paths correctly, you're paying for hosting services with them. since you're giving them money, they may be able to help you out. try dropping them a line with your error messages and see what they say.
