url problem

nerf610 · Posted: Sat Jan 13, 2007 2:30 am Post subject: url problem

well, I just upgraded to the newest version of gallery2 and the newest integration package. Install went smoothly and gallery2 works great directly.

However, accessing gallery from within phpBB2 now causes all links to be corrupt. The view source shows the following
base href="http://kcffulocal1301.com/cgi-sys/"
It should actually be:
base href="http://kcffulocal1301.com/gallery2/"

The gallery config within phpBB2 also returns the following error:
URL derived from http://kcffulocal1301.com/phpBB2/gallery2.php is invalid
Configuration data successfully saved, but errors were encountered.

Any ideas?
Thanks

It's because your server is running scripts from aliased directories. Dreamhost and other similarly configured hosts have this issue.

Comment out this code from gallery2.php:

Code: › elseif (!empty($pluginStatusList['rewrite']['active'])) {
$template->assign_block_vars('switch_phpbb_base', array(
'PHPBB_BASE' => strtolower(substr($_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'], 0, strpos($_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'], '/'))) . '://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . substr($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'], 0, strrpos($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'], '/') + 1))
);
}

You will probably also have trouble with the image selector, because it won't be able to build a correct path on it's own either. You'll have to hard code a path into the mod for bbcode.php if it doesn't work properly.

The config error stems from the same path discovery problem. Go to the config screen and have a look at the paths that got filled in automatically and make sure they are right. Especially the path to embed.php

Thanks for your help.
The problem is fixed.

I didn't have that exact code but I commented out the PHPBB_BASE line and it works.

Thanks again.
