A new install with the same database and all data? how? :)

At worst, the new installation of this product will try to re-import the images. However the uninstall code should be commented out and the lookup table should remain in place. Thus, reinstalling the plugin should not do any harm.

If the uninstallation code is not commented out, you will not loose any images though, because they are stored to your web space.

can we store the images in the DB

No. This plugin is intended to download images from external sites and store them to the file system. It is not meant to be a revamped or integrated attachment system :)

to bad, it make it hard for people with multiple servers to use :(

can you associate a sub-domain with the images?

Is there any way to debug and verify because the product in my Forum stopped working. Is there any way to debug and verify?

You may redirect images via .htaccess, for example.

I don't see the problem however. If you have multiple servers, how do the images influence their manner of "seing" images? Could you make an example of what you ahve and what you would like to have?

One of the possible issues are missing space, but also server settings. If your server disallow pulling in external content (sockets, curl, fopen) it is likely not working.

all my servers are behind a load balancer , they are all clones of each other.
you hit a random server every time you hit my site.
the easiest fix is to push the images to the db since. all the servers grab the images from the DB. since the db stores ALL the images its very easy to keep everything updated and accurate on all the servers.

If the servers are cloned, they should replicate/mirror the images after a while, too ... or not?

Hi,

My server suddenly stopped importing pictures...
can you tell me which settings do i have to check ?
(sockets, curl, fopen) where are they in the server?

We are using dedicated server / centos 6 / 64bit

Thank you
