Hi,

first of all: Thanks a lot for Zenphoto, it has been working like a charm so far.

However, since just having updated (from 1.4.0.2 to the currently latest version 1.4.1.6), I see a strange behaviour:

• For a non-registered user, everything is fine:

(1) the overview page (startpage with the galleries under http://www.domain.tld/zenphoto/) works

(2) the album page works (http://www.domain.tld/zenphoto/albumname/)

(3) the detail page works (http://www.domain.tld/zenphoto/albumname/filename.JPG.php)

• But for a registered user (e.g. the admin), the overview page (see no. 1 above) does not work.

Instead, the user is redirected to http://www.domain.tld/zenphoto/zp-core/setup.php.

And under that URL, I get this:

"Gallery | Object not found"

"The Zenphoto object you are requesting cannot be found.
Album: zp-core/setup.php"

I've tested all possible variants of mod_rewrite on/off, setting UTF-8 vs. ISO charsets, explicitly setting the paths in the zp-config.php and disabling plugins. All without any improvement.

Also, logging out and in again or clearing cookies did not have any effect.

I am using the default theme, no modifications.

The Setup files (directory zp-core/setup as well as zp-core/setup.php) have been moved away.

Any hint, any idea shall be gratefully appreciated!

Thanks in advance & best regards from Germany,
André

Best to re-upload the setup files and let setup run. Most likely there is a configuration change detected by Zenphoto that requires a re-run of setup. If so then re-running will solve the problem.

Thanks a lot for the quick reply and the hint: Re-uploading and re-configuring indeed did the job, zenphoto now works again.

However, I stumbled upon the message...

Quote:Zenphoto core files [Some files are missing or seem wrong]
Warning!

Perhaps there was a problem with the upload. You should check the following files:
zp-core/index.php
(...)
(and many more)
(...)
This seems to be something that quite some people in the forum have seen. However, after double-checking and making sure all the files are there with rights correctly set, I decided to ignore this message and it worked out.

Maybe there is some issue in that mechanism?

Thanks a lot again for Zenphoto and for your help!

Best regards,
André

Most likely this is caused by the date differences among the files, so you can ignore it. It was probably caused when re-uploading the setup files. But, if you do have strange problems it would be a good idea to upload the complete release package to insure that all the files are from the same release.

Just as a sidenote: Since uploading all the files takes quite a while especially for all the zp-core files this note might also appear if you do that...

I am pretty sure that the file date should not be the reason fpr the error message, as...

• I also tried to download the zenphoto installation directly to my webserver, unpacking the archive there

• I even tried to set the file date to exactly the same timestamp using "touch"

...however, the message appears but the installation seems to work out fine ;-)

The message comes only if the file is missing or has a date timestamp that is "out of range".
