| Check to see if you are running PHP 4. Note that some versions of PHP have bugs that cause Gallery to fail. PHP4.0.0 uses a different file upload protocol, versions 4.0.3 and 4.0.3pl1 have a bug in the unserialization code that cause Gallery to be unable to read its own database. Upgrade to at least PHP 4.0.4pl1 if you can. |
|
Success
PHP v4.3.1 is OK
|
|
| Allow the Gallery .htaccess file to set application specific configuration options for the Gallery application. This is controlled by the webserver owner so it's not always possible for you to change it. The main drawbacks to not having this are that you may not be able to upload files > 2MB (eg, big ZIP files) and you may not be able to use mod_rewrite (see below). |
|
Success
I can read your .htaccess file
|
|
| Check to see if magic quotes are enabled on your PHP server. If they're on, you may notice strange behaviour if you put ' (single-quote), " (double quote) or \ (backslash) characters in titles or captions in the gallery. |
|
Success
magic quotes are off
|
|
| Check to see if your webserver is compiled with mod_rewrite. Mod_rewrite allows the Gallery to use shorter URLs that are easier to read and look nicer when you mail them to your web-challenged relatives. It's not an essential feature. |
|
Success
mod_rewrite is enabled
|
|
| Check to see if NetPBM is installed so that Gallery can manipulate images (rotate, resize, make thumbnails, etc). |
|
Success
All 12 NetPBM binaries located
|
|
| Check to see if jhead is installed so that Gallery can examine EXIF headers embedded in images created with most digital cameras. |
|
Success
jhead binary located
