| photo sizing
I've gotten uploads resolved -- it will now accept uploads.
This was my problem:
config-inc.php file includes the following:
----------------------------------------------
// Path to MOGRIFY executable
// There should be no spaces in the directory names, use short names if necessary.
// Examples:
// $mogrify_command = "c:\progra~1\imagemagick\mogrify.exe";
// $mogrify_command = "c:\ImageMagick\mogrify.exe";
-------------------------------------------------
My webhost provided the path to ImageMagic and I entered it in the config-inc.php file as:
$mogrify_command = "/usr/local/bin/mogrify.exe";
(the example shown includes the ".exe"
Didn't work.
I changed it to:
$mogrify_command = "/usr/local/bin/mogrify";
(no ".exe" after "mogrify")
and it worked.
If the ".exe" extension should not be included (as was the case for me), it would help the person iinstalling it if the instructions (on install screen and in the config-inc.php file) indicated that.
Next problem:
---------------
However, now when I upload a photo, it shows both photos (thumbnail and displayed photo) as same size as thumbnail.
The description indicates photo size should be larger ("dimensions 424 x 283") but it's displayed only at thumbnail size.
A concern:
-----------
I'm having to set permissions for a whole boatload of files and folders to 777. That concerns me. Won't 777 permit external access to those files so permitted?
