Albums dissapear

Hallo!

While changing the rights of several of my photos (to make them visible) the photos seemed to dissapear. Suddenly no one was able to open the gallery.

The albums and photos are available by watching them via ftp (/subdomains/julia/httpdocs/galerie/albums), but eiter watching the albums as a visitor or trying to edit them as administrator there's the answer: "There's no gallery".

Is there some way to correct this?

    What exactly did you do when "changing the righs"?

    Sorry, I meant change permissions (I directly translated from German to English in my head). You know, CHMOD...

    To what did you change the permissions? Did you use the option on setup to set "strict permissions"? It might be that your host does not support that as some shared hosts don't then you have to go with the lesser strict 0777.

    Sorry for the delay. I changed the permission to -rw-r--r-- of certain photos. But I didn't change them globally, it happened quite suddenly during the change. But also by changing the permission to -rwxrwxrwx doesn't make the galleries reappear. I also tried to erase the gallery and re-upload it - it didn't change.

    After all: the galleries were visible quite satisfyingly before...

    --edit--
    The only thing that seemed to help was to erase the whole "albums"-File, recreate it and then upload all the photos...

    Did you check if your albums are really published and that their images are really visible? Anyway if it is the site linked on your profile name the permissions of your installation are completely messed up. Please set the whole zenphoto (or in your case probably galerie folder) and all content to 0777.

    Also I suggest to update to 1.2.5 (you are running 1.2.3).

    Well, although I don't understand why it happened, I did the hard workaround: erase all, upload them all again and set the permissions to -rwxrwxrwx (i.e. 0777). It works for me.

    And yes, I'm going to update the version. Promised. When I find spare time.

    Thank you for your help.
