Installation issue due to newb

Ok... so I just used your most recent integration package for G2. I uploaded all the files, made sure and followed the directions and was able to enter the admin portion. I created the test php file in order to get the actual "Full path to your Gallery2 directory:" and placed it in the gallery2 folder. It returned the result
/home/www/foreverkings.com/modules/gallery2

I entered that information and ensured that everything else was as it should be. I then clicked the "Verify Gallery2 installation andupdate integration settings" button and it goes to a blank white page. If i modify the full directory path and hit the same button i get
"Error : Full path to your Gallery2 directory
You need to install and configure G2 first. Then this field must point to your Gallery2 root folder."
It atleast gives me a warning/error page.

What am I doing wrong?

I kept them as the default since they actually ended up being the way it should be.

dari

do you have G2 installed yet?

I placed all the files in the directories like the instructions stated. It seemed pretty simple and straight forward.

I made sure that the files and directories had the proper permissions as well.

dari

but you didn't actually INSTALL it. copying the gallery2 files into the gallery2 directory does not install it. http://www.absolve.com/README.html#installing has installation instructions

Wow.. do i suck or what.

Ok.. so i downloaded the full "gallery-2.0-rc-full.zip" file and extracted it. I created a folder on the root directory of the web server named G2.
www.foreverkings.com/g2
I then FTp'd all the files in that archive to the G2 folder.
I then try to open the www.foreverkings.com/g2/install/index.php file in my browser but it just shoots me back to the main homepage of the website.

I really appreciate the help you are providing... sorry for bein such a noob.

dari

first, for this to be easily integrated into phpnuke, you should put the gallery2 directory in your phpnuke modules directory.

Ok.. moved the folder and all its files to now reside in the modules folder. I once again attempted to run the index.html located in the install folder however it still kicked me back to the main page. Is there a setting or something keeping me from running that page?

edit.. Nevermind.. got the install page now.. workin through it. Smile

dari

do you have any 3rd party addon for security?

No i dont.

I was able to get the install page going however and have thus made it atleast to the addons part. All were activated successfully except
The NetPBM module was installed, but needs configuration to be activated
The URL Rewrite module was installed, but needs configuration to be activated

It says to go to the modules view to configure them however they are not listed.

Also.. when the install is completed... at that time do I transfer your integration package over? Or is that something different?

dari

by modules view, it means log into gallery2 as the admin user, then go to the "site admin" link and the "modules" link. this is not your phpnuke modules page.
