Questions about permissions etc.

I've had my eye on ImageVue for a while. It's a great program but the reason I'm edgy about purchasing is due to the server which hosts my website. I've had problems in the past with write permissions when trying to install a forum. My server admin only allows me to enable READ and WRITE permissions and not the EXECUTE permissions. What effect does this have on ImageVue? Which features do I lose? Is there a manual workaround?
Thanks

Nothing, we need to READ pictures to create and WRITE thumbnails. Basically if you have thumbnails pre-created then there is no need to write anything. So it gonna be fine.

To be completely honest, I must say Im not 100% on term with permissions. The problem is, they differ between servers. Imagevue doesnt really have any specific requirement as to CHMOD value, it only needs to be able to WRITE thumbnails and descriptions from a PHP file uploaded by FTP.
In my common knowledge, this value seems to have to be 777 in most cases, but on some servers, it works with 755 also.
In the end of the day, setting permissions is not paramount to run Imagevue. But if thumbnails are to be saved to disk, and descriptions are to be saved, permissions will most likely need to be set. After thumbnails are created(or descriptions), one can always set the default permissions back on folder.
chmod

I tried to access your page, but nothing was loading in your intro. I dont know the location of your gallery, so I cant check it.

You can disable displaying of imagename from the configuration files
config.ini and
slideshowimagevueconfig.ini

Hi,
I had the same permission-problem:
Folders are set to 777 (tried other chmod-settings as well), but all uploaded images are only set to 600.
So I had the idea to add a chmod-command to the upload-script.
I added in /admin/upload.php:
@chmod($path.$file_name, 0755);
just below this line:
$copy = move_uploaded_file($tmp_name,'../'.$path.$file_name);
I think this should work, but it doesn't (but I'm not very good with PHP).
Any idea?
Best,
Peter.
