PhotoPost Community - View Single Post - Exif not showing if information comes from rescan

Hi,

I have newly installed jhead to extract exif information. Works very well with newly uploaded images: Exif is being extracted and camera-symbol shown on showphoto.php. Information given there is correct. So the jhead and exif settings have to be correct.

I ran a scan on my database to read exif from the photos already present in the gallery. Scan worked well. If I look at the database directly, I can see the exif-information that was read from the images (pp_exif.exifinfo).

Now the problem: The camera-symbol does not show. From looking at showphoto.php I gather that Photopost decides whether to show the symbol or not on basis of pp_photos.exifinfo (1=show, 0=don't show). My newly uploaded images sport a shining 1 there, whereas all old images feature a dim 0, altough there definitely is exif info for that image in pp_exif.exifinfo.

How can I make photopost to recognize that newly added exif information? And no, sadly not all the images have exif information. If that was the case, I just would set the whole pp_photos.exifinfo column to 1.

Any help appreciated.

Additional info: I'm running 6.01, and I repeated the exif rescan twice.
