link doesn't go anywhere

I think it may have something to do with the url rewrite, because when I deactivate it in gallery2, the images seem to load.

here is my entire .htaccess, not sure what you want when you say 'snippet' :P

in the gallery rules i changed the 'show item' to gallery/v/%path% like the installation said

the paths, im not sure what you need

i dont see any embedded setup under the setup tab :S ... you are talking about actually in gallery2 under url rewrite? cause it's defiantly not there :(

ok i think i did what you said, now look what i get http://petermorawski.com/gallery/ (also giving me the same message when i access my admin page for drupal)

i have this now in my .htaccess

# BEGIN Url Rewrite section
# (Automatically generated. Do not edit this section)

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /gallery/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} gallery\_remote2\.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/gallery/index\.php$
RewriteRule . - [L]

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /gallery/gallery/v/([^?]+)(\?.|\ .)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/gallery/index\.php$
RewriteRule . /gallery/index.php?q=gallery&g2_path=%1 [QSA,L]

i have drupal in the main directory on the server, then gallery2 as another directory ...... i dont know, this is all too much, maybe i'll just not have the url rewrite *shrugs*
