Issue upgrading to gallery 2.3 on Drupal 5.x

You might check to see what your PHP memory limit is set to. Also check this http://drupal.org/node/158043

Try removing the module (erasing it) then re-installing.

During the installation process be sure to uncheck watchdog from the Error Logging section.

Also, your httpd error and security (modsec on apache) logs would be useful in a situation like this.

Am seeing the same.

Upgraded a 5.10 to 6.4 drupal instance.

Upgraded gallery module - the modules page goes blank.

Memory is set to 128M.

Removing all variables that are gallery% and all blocks that are module gallery (the uninstall confirm page is also a blank page so I have to mimic the uninstall by hand) and then re-installing - same issue.

Tried actually removing the system table lines in addition (let them be rebuilt by d6 when it sees the gallery directory on disk) - same issue.

Tried adding the lines recommended on http://drupal.org/node/158043 (error reporting in index.php) - no extra info.

Nothing in apache error logs or watchdog logs.

Am a bit lost here as to what to try next :/

Same issue. It's pretty aggravating. The gallery functions well standalone though, and I have a really high memory limit. I nearly tried searching for all gallery references in the drupal database and removing them by hand, but I'm glad I checked here first to find that someone has already done this to no avail - saves me a lot of time and hassle. :) It's too bad the page is totally blank or I would give you the output of the devel module at the very least.

Not getting anywhere with this one - I just can't get it to log anything anywhere :(

Hi
Are any of you running Date module or/and Date API?

Not on the site I am having issues with. I do have several 5.x sites waiting for an upgrade to 6 which use date, dateapi and calendar views in addition to the pics - but I was not going to start them until I had the first site complete. I do have cck and views (latest rc's) but not date.

Ok, I'm having the same issue too. I did a bit of searching through log files and found this error:

PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /photos/modules/core/classes/GalleryEmbed.class on line 226

This is in the function checkActiveUser which attempts to ensure that the active gallery user is the same as the drupal user. The error occurs because $activeUser = $gallery->getActiveUser(); returns NULL for $activeUser even though $idInSession is not empty.

As far as I can tell, the problem arises when Gallery thinks that the drupal user is already logged into gallery: idInSession = TRUE, but there is no active user: gallery->getActiveUser() = NULL;

I'm trying to test where the problem originates, but so far all that I have found is commenting out the following code fragment (listed below) in GalleryEmbed.class bypasses the problem, probably at the expense of creating others.

Update: Alternatively, a possible fix is to simply check that activeUser is not NULL before evaluating the rest of the if statement:

Replace line 226 of GalleryEmbed.class:

 if ($anonymousUserId != $activeUser->getId()) {

with

if ($activeUser != NULL && $anonymousUserId != $activeUser->getId()) {

which appears in the fragment:

	if (!empty($idInSession)) {
	    list ($ret, $anonymousUserId) = GalleryCoreApi::getAnonymousUserId();
	    if ($ret) {
		return $ret;
	    }
	    $activeUser = $gallery->getActiveUser();
	    if ($anonymousUserId != $activeUser->getId()) {
		$event = GalleryCoreApi::newEvent('Gallery::Logout');
		$event->setEntity($activeUser);
		list ($ret, $ignored) = GalleryCoreApi::postEvent($event);
		if ($ret) {
		    return $ret;
		}
	    }
	    $ret = $session->reset();
	    if ($ret) {
		return $ret;
	    }
	    $session->put('embed.id.externalUser', $activeUserId);
	}

Tonight I downloaded the latest nightly for Gallery2, and the problem in GalleryEmbed.class seems to be fixed, with a comment noted:

/* Can't use getActiveUser() since it might not be set at this point */
	    $activeGalleryUserId = $gallery->getActiveUserId();

So, this new update fixes my problem with blank pages.

Which date nightly? Last I see of dev builds was aug 5th - do you mean a CVS checkout? Or did I miss something? If its the aug 5th build - doesn't fix it for me :(

Actually, I didn't bother to check when I downloaded the build last night from http://www.rabinovich.org/G2/. I think they update the build each night, so the date would be Oct. 8 or 9, 2008.

Just to clarify, this is the nightly build of gallery2, not the drupal gallery plugin. Sorry if there was some confusion about that.

Ah - yes - that would explain it.

i think this is related to something with Date. i can set up my site cleanly with either just gallery modules, or just date modules, but as soon as i enable both at the same time, i see this exact bug.

updating to the latest nightly of gallery2 does not fix this issue for me, but it does cause it to appear only intermittently instead of 100%.

I seem to be OK now with the 5th August dev build of this module with the Gallery 2.3 release. At least - initial testing seems OK.

I'm successfully running the latest 6.x dev build (2008-Aug-05) now on four installations with gallery 2.3. All work fine. Anyone else still having issues? Or can we mark this fixed?

I am wondering why the issues here ? I have set all the permissions to 777 but I got blank page while it tried to upgrade core module (step 4)

Thanks

Happy New Year by the way ....

Cheers
