issue 1 ..

If I go to http://www.bassaddiction.com/upload - the system does not generate the imagevue site, however it just displays a couple words.. but, when I specify a globaldir within the URL, it displays fine such as
http://www.bassaddiction.com/upload/ima ... h=/upload/

I have tried working the config.ini and index.php to hardcode in the globalpath, but nothing seems to work. Help!

Issue 2 ..

I have uploaded several directories into /content - when going into admin to create thumbnails, it shows the number of images however does not display the image or a thumb nail - i have actually yet to get an image to display out of imagevue, even on the main page, it shows how many images, but does not give me any images.

*** update :: I was able to get a globalpath hard coded in however, its only good for imagevue.swf... when I try and go to admin it just says it cannot contact server when I enter in the password.

Hey Jordan,

about problem #2

A much easyer way to get your tumbnails is using this program http://www.fookes.com/ezthumbs/...

Step 1:Select the picture map you want to use...
Step 2:Select "Make all" and the programme generates all your tumb's
Step 3: Load the same picture map up to your server Content>Groupfolder>... and your done

and about the other thing...copy the config text to this topic and I LL look at it :)

Why should I have to go out to get another program when I just purchased a program to do this ... I dont see the point in going and getting another piece of software when the one I bought is supposed to do this.


The config file is the same as the one that came with initial install.

Do you have a server with php and gd2, which are needed for Imagevue (and thumbnail creation): https://www.photo.gallery/imagevue/requirements

yes, of which, both are installed and working

Is there something in 2k3 that this software doesnt like?

Running apache webserver with the latest PHP and GD2 which was just installed and updated to the most current version.

Question #1:
Are all your images NON progressive .jpg?

Question #2:
Have you checked http://www.bassaddiction.com/upload/test/
The results on your server are different than mine -> http://www.tonykartamerica.com/2007/slideshow/test/

PHP is NOT enabled or not installed, .php files are being treated as usual text, please check your server config.

Hi, i just bought imagevue and can't create thumbnails on the server

How do i find out the answer to question 1 ? i have a canon ixus 800is.
Does that create progressive or non progressive jpg's ?

Every test is fine

edit: found the reason to the problem, too big resolution on the pics

In your case I think the issue might be memory limit when resizing images directly from camera. Do you pre-size them before upload? Keep in mind that on commercial hosting php usually does not have enough memory to process 5-8Mpix images, so good idea would be to make them of some reasonable size before upload.

And progressive .jpg comes only from image processing programs when you choose either [x] progressive or [x] save for web setting which produces interlaced image which being displayed as it loads.
