Can't Display File Galleries List in Tiki 50

posts: 33 United States

Greetings,

I just reinstalled Tiki 5.0 after server-end problems forced me to move to a new web host, and I've noticed that my link to tiki-list_file_gallery.php doesn't work. The files are in my sql database and direct links to them work just fine, but I can't display them in list format.

Neither can I find any link to an admin feature for file galleries even though I'm the site admin and have permission to edit, create categories in which to place files, etc.

Is there something wrong with the file galleries feature in 5.0? Does anybody know what the problem is likely to be and how I might fix it? Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.

It could be a database character set problem, that seems to be quite common lately. Use PHPmyAdmin (or similar tool) and verify that your database character encoding is UTF8. The only other thing that springs is to mind that besides the view permission, you may also need the download permission, otherwise you'll run into problems too.

Please, Upgrade to Tiki 5.3 and try again.
Ensure that you set your db connection to utf-8, to discard that this is the source of the issue (it is in other areas realted to file gals)

Thanks Darkbee and Xavi,

For some reason, the problem disappeared after I enabled PHP error reporting (all but strict) in Tiki 50. Doesn't make sense to me, but there you have it. I plan to upgrade to the latest version of Tiki soon and will see how that goes vis a vis file galleries.
