Gallery2 integration works brillantly with Drupal 5.7 but not SEF URL

is there anyone who had experienced this issue managed to fix it? and what did you do to resolve this issue. Also this is giving problems when trying to save my gallery configs using gallery embed in Drupal. Thank you,

Here's the link: www.duvien.com/gallery

I've turned SEF back on for now so you can see what i mean.

I used both:

gallery/%path%

gallery/v/%path%

for the path for image item and disable all the others. But still failed.

thanks,

P.S. it was me posting up twice, sorry.

This is the drupal one (in root directory):

And this is the gallery2 (which is installed to a driectory named gallery2):

    RewriteEngine On

    RewriteBase /gallery2/

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} gallery\_remote2\.php
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/gallery2/main\.php$
    RewriteRule .   -   [L]

    RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /gallery2/gallery/([^?]+)(\?.|\ .)
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/gallery2/main\.php$
    RewriteRule .   /gallery2/main.php?g2_path=%1   [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

# END Url Rewrite section

thanks,

I've just resetted the gallery install and when thru the process. This time with the drupal .htaccess being writable (as you said). It completed successfully but nothing got written to the .htaccess file.

What code must i put in the drupal .htaccess file for this to work?

thank you,

You're a genius!

Many thanks, that worked wonders :)
