Did you
Import database structure from "InstallDB\Oak_vGallery.sql" with PhpMyAdmin

Created a folder in my vB root directory called 'gallery' and uploaded the files there.

CHmod my images and thumbnails folders to '777' to enable write access.

However when i go to the http://www.mydomain.com/gallery/index.php , nothing shows just a blank page.

Yes i did , but into the same db as my forums.
Is that rite ? Or do i have to create a seperate db for it ?

[Willard Reece]

I have did it both ways and havn't got it working yet,,
It shows up but I can't create anything or upload.

Maybe someone will see our posts and help out.

Ok i set create the tables ( via the Oak_gallery.sql upload ) to my forum db , checked the paths again ( changed a few ) and finally got something to show.

But cant seem to do anything else.

Here's a screenie of how it looks right now:

[Willard Reece]

I put it on my test site and got it first time,
http://www.reecefamilies.com/vportal...gory.php?cid=1

You are right,, I installed it under just the forums, and a dir of vgallery,,, not a new data base

[cinq]

Willard , could you attach your current galleryconfig.php file if possible ?
Wish to view your path settings to check that i got mine right
I cant even see some of the items your page is showing.

[Willard Reece]

heres what I used,, I still have to make it nice tho,,

I just went back to my main site and made the changes and phpamin the file and boom it works there too.

Many thanks , some of my paths were wrong.
Kinda works now i think , will try it out and feedback soon
