No Cache Files created

[garv3]

The system does create the cache folders but no subfolders ("400x400" for example) or any cached images. The thumbnails are not shown and only the images themselves work when opened.

Apache2 server running PHP 8 with GD support and Exif enabled.

Why does the system not create any thumbnails?

What kind of webhosting do you use? Webhosting provider or own server?

Is it possible to open the albums (with the missing thumbnails)?

Is novaGallery installed with an own (sub)domain or in a subfolder of a (sub)domain?

Is htaccess configuration enabled and set?

Same problem here,

Also happens with apache

Hi,

this is almost the same issue on self installed server: Not complete installed server setup for using php with common features.

On Apache missing:

• mod rewrite
• htaccess support

Same on nginx, but there you need to set the rewrite settings in config (depending on your setup) because nginx doesn't support htaccess. Here an example for a possible configuration: https://github.com/novafacile/novagallery/issues/12#issuecomment-1144038615

Sometimes it's an permissions issue. PHP/Apache/nginx must have the rights to write in the gallery folder. Usually everything there is owned by www-data and php/apache/nginx are running with www-data. But this depends on your personal server setup and requirements.

Already do that and nothing tho, im using aarch64 processor so idk if sometimes of the php changes

I'm sorry but I can't test this server configuration. Maybe it's a permission setting:

After adding/uploading an album. Who is the owner of the directory of the album?

Maybe your system is a bit more restricted. You can try this:

Cange in /nova-base/lib/Image.php the dir permission on line 150 to 0775 or 0755. Maybe 0777 ist to "open" for your server configuration

Change https://github.com/novafacile/novagallery/blob/15b6e93c90e44994bd3da05f979d087ad38ce82b/src/nova-base/lib/Image.php#L150

to

mkdir(self::$cacheDir, 0775, true);

If this doesn't help:

Is it possible to use an other php script, that uses mod rewrite and file writing rights? E.g. Bludit CMS?

Which PHP 8 version do you use?

seems to be solved...
