PhotoPost Community - View Single Post - trouble with the "Retrieve all images from a URL" feature

Picside · June 15th, 2005, 07:12 PM

Greetings! I have just installed the latest 5.11 this Monday (new install/new customer). Everything is going pretty well, but I'm trying to iron out some kinks before I proceed with other things. One thing holding me back is the inability to use the "Retrieve all images from a URL" Extra Option.

I have checked with the parsing needs and feel this file should work:
http://www.wirefunk.com/pictures/200...rop/index.html

It is a 15 line html page with lines like:
( img src="http://www.wirefunk.com/pictures/2004-March-Bastrop/Dscn1316.jpg" )
( img src="http://www.wirefunk.com/pictures/2004-March-Bastrop/Dscn1333.jpg" ) (with the right greater/less than signs of course, don't want to confuse the forum)

When I click upload, it goes through the redirect scripts... "Preparing" page... "Your image upload successful" page... Then it drops to the galllery with a page saying "This cat doesn't contain images".

I quickly thought it might have to do with permissions, or the way the directories might be setup. The data and uploads were 777'd before the install, but i double-confirmed they still were. I changed "PATH to UPLOADS directory?" from
/home/picside/web/photopost/uploads/ to /web/photopost/uploads/ and got

Warning: fopen(/web/photopost/uploads/1/index.htm): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/.macha/picside/web/photopost/pp-inc.php on line 1953

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/.macha/picside/web/photopost/pp-inc.php on line 1954

----- Picside Message
/web/photopost/uploads/1: Error creating directory (check permissions).

Please notify the System Administrator.

... Changed it back and the rest of the site works again. Any insights? Thanks!

Dunno if this is of help... URL it goes to after "preparing":
http://www.picside.com/photopost/bulkupload.php?ppaction=addphotos&do=preview
&photopath=1&upuser=Picside&notify=no&defcat=500&numprocess=&deftitle=&defdesc=
&updir=%2Fhome%2Fpicside%2Fweb%2Fphotopost%2Fuploads%2F1&processall=no&dthumbs=yes

Thanks!
