Hello, am having a problem I cannot resolve....
Prerequisites
Windows Server 2003 fully patched
IIS 6
Imagevue Version: x2 20090209
Default Installation, no configuration changes made
PHP v5.26 CGI Extension (tried)
PHP v4.47 CGI Extension (tried)
Files uploaded via ftp
Files directly placed into directory via remote admin
'galleryname'/imageveux/config --> Full Permissions
'galleryname'/content --> Full Permissions
Problem..
If I add an image file to a directory that is part of the original install, i.e picture1, then the filecount in the folderdata.xml file is updated accordingly, just as we expect...
Now.........
If I create a new directory, using the admin control panel, upload an image, the filecount in the directories folderdata.xml file is NOT updated
I hear some of you say, 'permission problems'
however, if I add a description and title for the image that was uploaded this information IS updated in the folderdata.xml file ?#?!#?
As per subject title, only the filecount attribute is not being updated in newly created directories
Which as some of you are aware = no pictures being shown!
Really hope to hear from somebody regards this.......
-- EDIT --
Another twist.......
If I manually change the filecount attribute to equel '1', then upload a new image to the directory, then the filecount attribute is updated to '2', just what we expect to happen.
So looks like the code which is responsible for updating filecount on newly created directory with an uploaded images is not updating the fileaccount attribute when fileaccount is set to '0'.
But when fileaccount attribute is set to anthing other than '0' is working as should. This would explain why the default directories with images work as there folderdata.xml filecount attribute is NOT set to '0'.
Hope someone can check this out as we cannot go ahead with the work we had planned.....
Yup its Saturday and as we are pushed for time was going to get this setup over the weekend as we need to get this live asap

I also uploaded some photos to a newly created directory via the admin panel. And also after creating all the thumbs the dir said 0 images and nothing could be viewed in the front end! I had to manually hit recreate thumbs in current dir and hit manually clear cash to make the filecount change and images to appear in the front end... Weird...all thumbs automatically created and in admin panel file count was 0. I was using latest version!

Nice to see the responses of some of the peeps who posted in this thread.mjau-mjau wrote:To cito:
Are you clicking "Clear Cache" in the admin main menu once in a while? Amongst other things, it has the function to recount images in folders and write them to folderdata.xml files.
Would be good to hear from peeps on Linux servers to see if they see the same issue occuring.
Thanks Karl, pressing 'clear cache' resolved the issue.
That we have to press 'clear cache' to update the folderdata.xml filecount attribute is this documented anywhere?
If so, I failed in finding it.
Does the filecount attribute show different characteristics on Linux servers vs Windows servers in respect to updating the filecount attribute when it is set at '0'?
It would be preferable that the filecount attribute was updated automatically when it is set at '0' as it is automatically updated when it is set at any other value other than '0'
This is a small issue for ourselves as we will have to explain to our clients that each time they create a new folder and add images to it that they
must press 'clear cache' for it to show their images.
This could be resolved by adding some logic in the code for automatically updating the filecount attribute when it is set at '0' as it is done with other values other than '0'
