What is ServerName set to in your Apache configuration?  It sounds as =20=

if it's set to 'localhost' when really you ought to comment it out.  =20
Apache will rewrite the URL using this hostname if you have ServerName =20=

set.

you actually need to create the thumbnails.. so in your "albums" director=
y do:

=2E./utilites/mkGallery.pl -Krant  (or whatever options you want) after h=
aving=20
set whatever thumbnail options you want in config.php

What is set as $phpNukeRoot?  Does that directory exist?

This is a known problem when using:

	$useThumbSubdir = FALSE;
	$randomFolderThumbs = TRUE;


However, I haven't been able to track down the source of the problem as  
of yet.  I'd been hoping to fix this for 1.4.0, but unless I can  
isolate what's causing it, I can't fix it.

somewhere in getRandomThumb().  If you figure out where, feel free to

Yes, notice that they include parts of the path twice (making it an

For now, I'll make $randomFolderThumbs = FALSE. Not a big deal, though.

What version of ImageMagick are you using?  I haven't been able to 
reproduce this using 5.4.3.  Another user is having problems with 
5.3.5, unless using the -K flag, then it works.

To find out your version, type "convert -help | head -1".  I'm trying 
to determine if this is a problem with ImageMagick *older* than 5.4.3 
or *newer* than 5.4.3.  All I have is 5.4.3 presently.

What version of ImageMagick are you using?  I still can't reproduce=20
this (testing on a FreeBSD system with ImageMagick 5.4.3).

To find your version type this at a shell prompt:

	convert -help | head -1

You should get a line like this:

	Version: @(#)ImageMagick 5.4.3 02/15/02 Q:16 =
http://www.imagemagick.org

The 5.4.3 in this example is the version of ImageMagick.  5.5.1 is the=20=

current release, I believe, but I don't have it on any systems I have=20
access to presently.  I'm trying to determine if this is a new behavior=20=

(after 5.4.3) or an old behavior (fixed by the time 5.4.3 came around).

I've been looking over diffs of the last couple versions of mkGallery. =20=

The last change was EXIF-related and wouldn't apply here, but prior to=20=

that the profile-stripping code was added.  Try making thumbnails with=20=

the '-K' flag, i.e.:

	../utilities/mkGallery.pl -Krant

And see if that is any better.

this probably won't be that much help, but maybe it'll get you going in t=

right direction, in a "use a large hammer" kind of way. I went from:
