| 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). |
|
Warning!
I can't find NetPBM. If it's installed and not in the path of the webserver user that's OK -- you can specify the path to NetPBM by hand on the following page. If it's not installed, you have two choices. Gallery prefers NetPBM version 9.9 and up. You can install the entire NetPBM package from NetPBM on SourceForge or you can install just the binaries Gallery needs from Gallery on SourceForge. Note: You can install the binaries from the Gallery site even if you don't have root access on your box! If Gallery does not have the specific binaries for your hardware/software combination post a request On the Gallery website and we'll build them for you. |
|
| Check to see if jhead is installed so that Gallery can examine EXIF headers embedded in images created with most digital cameras. |
|
Warning!
I can't find jhead. If it's installed and not in the path of the webserver user that's OK -- you can specify the path to jhead by hand on the following page. If it's not installed, you can install it yourself. jhead is a public domain EXIF parser. Source, linux binaries, and windows binaries can be found at the jhead homepage. |
