I have installed php nuke on my server but my members want to be able to post pictures. From what i have found you cant upload pictures in the forum like you can with invision.
So my question is how do i install this galery onto php nuke as i cant find any instructions on how to do it.
I have got uised to installing blocks but there seams to be a lot of files on galery to bejust a simple installation.

There is a MOD available for phpBB to upload files/images - however it really is as simple as uploading the GALLERY files in to your MODULES directory to install gallery. Plz read the FAQs:

Create empty file .htaccess, place in the gallery root (/yoursite/modules/gallery/) and chmod it to 777

Ok thx but i did warn i was a n00b. i have the final problem now and cant figure out how to run the secure.bat as it is on a windows host
If you've finished your configuration but you're still seeing this page, that's because for safety's sake we don't let you run Gallery in an insecure mode. You need to switch to secure mode before you can use it. Here's how:

Unix with shell access
% cd /path/to/your/gallery
% sh ./secure.sh

Unix with FTP access
ftp> chmod 644 .htaccess
ftp> chmod 644 config.php
ftp> chmod 400 setup

Windows
C:\> cd \path\to\your\gallery
C:\> secure.bat

how do i run that please thanks

Easiest way is to simply CHMOD the yoursite/modules/gallery/setup folder to 0 - you may also need to:

chmod 644 yoursite/modules/gallery/.htaccess
chmod 644 yoursite/modules/gallery/config.php

Is SAFE MODE ON in you webspace? If so, here are your options:

How can i tell if safe mode is on. I dont think it is tho thx.

slackbladder · Posted: Fri May 28, 2004 8:02 am Post subject: Re: Ok N00b here plz help

You might not have SAFE ON - but you can check by creating an empty file, fill it with:

Code: ›
<?php
phpinfo();
?>

save as phpinfo.php and upload to your webspace - call the file from your browser and then look for the SAFE MODE value in the page output.

Also try turning DEBUG ON in your GALLERY config.php. Then try uploading again and POST here the error messages.

I think you may have to talk to your host. Gallery needs exec,passthru,proc_open,proc_close() enabled.

Maybe ask them to remove this line in your php.ini - disable_functions

It is normally easy to install GALLERY Shocked
