[Plugin: WP Photo Album Plus] Latest Update causing Fatal Error

oooOOOOOooooo… i can drag that little guy off the browser. now i am a good step closer to fixing this.

Keep in mind, when editing a file it is good practice to either save the original as .old or .orig or something like that. And instead of deleting line 588, just comment it out by placing a # at the beginning of the line. This way if you make a mistake, you can save the only file to the proper file or just remove the comment if you were attempting to remove the incorrect line.

Well, I drug the file right off the browser, took the file to Wordpad, altered code, saved file.

Still had no way of returning file back to browser page, so I downloaded the FileZilla program… it doesn’t want to log into my server for some reason. Is my ‘Server Address’ the same as the ‘website IP’?

Your address should be what you typed in your earlier post https://ftp.mywebsite.com leave the https:// off. For some reason this board is autofilng that. so it’s ftp. mywebsite .com leave the spaces out.

you will need your logon and password. Port (if it asks you) is 21.

OH SNAP!! May have found the ‘right’ way to access this file via the host site! -update to fallow for those interested lol-

HALLELUJAH! Things went fast once I found the right link on the host site. I was going through the button ‘FTP’ and that was leading me down the dificult path I was on. On a whim I clicked the ‘File Manager’ Button next to the FTP button. THAT was where i should have gone 5-6 hrs ago. Found the file, made the change, it’s all up and running again.

THANKS to everyone that contributed to helping the slow kid here fix his little website!
-Wolf-

Likewise, this took my site completely offline – back up with line 588 commented out.

Many thanks for the rapid fix posted on this page! ??

Will be fixed today in 4.3.7.

am having trouble getting via FTP. What would happen if, on the server, I just swapped out the wppa-common-functions.php with a fresh one from the 4.3.7 update?

I keep getting this error using filezilla

530 Login authentication failed
Error: Critical error
Error: Could not connect to server

Everything I have inputted is correct. I have tried another ftp programme but get a similar message

Any ideas?

Are you sure you have ftp access anyway? Check your hosting provider for more info.

All fixed thanks. I had the wrong ftp log in details :/

I installed WPPA and updated it to 4.5.1 today. I am attempting to import and/or upload images, and get the following error:

Warning: imagejpeg() [function.imagejpeg]: Unable to open '/home/dayled/public_html/blog/wp-content/uploads/wppa/thumbs/140.jpg' for writing: Permission denied in /home/dayled/public_html/blog/wp-content/plugins/wp-photo-album-plus/wppa-common-functions.php on line 1130

permissions on all folders are 775 or better.

It still is a rights thing.

Did you check CHMOD with an ftp program (such as filezilla)?
Setting CHMOD by an php program not always works. See this note:

Note:

The current user is the user under which PHP runs. It is probably not the same user you use for normal shell or FTP access. The mode can be changed only by user who owns the file on most systems.

on the chmod doc page of the php manual

When I import a photo from the depot, I see the error as reported above. Admin says the file imported, but there is no thumbnail created. The file placed in the WPPA folder is set to 644 after importing from the wppa-depot.

After revisiting the permissions issues on the folders, I then turned my attention to the permissions of the files in wppa-depot. It appears those need to be completely writable in order for the system to import the files and create the thumbnails.

A note about that added to the documentation may be helpful.

With all that said, however, I’m still seeing a Division by Zero error on the album page itself:

Thank you for your prompt reply.
