ApertureToGallery F.A.Q.
How can I edit the connection settings for my Gallery entry?
A Gallery entry's connection settings can edited by selecting the entry and then double-clicking on it.
I receive an "Image upload failed" error during step 2 of the export process and no images are added to my Gallery…
A likely cause for this is because PHP enforces a size limitation for data uploads (usually 2 MB) which may be preventing your image from being sent to your Gallery installation. This size limitation can be adjusted by editing the php settings in your php.ini file. For more details, click here.
After selecting my Gallery entry no albums are being displayed in the browser…
By default the plug-in assumes that the default path (http://www.yourdomain.com/gallery2/main.php) should be used to communicate with your Gallery installation. If you have changed this path or have apache setup to do redirects (via .htaccess files or httpd.conf settings) then you may have problems using the plug-in. One possible solution is to set a custom path for the Gallery entry. This can be specified when creating or editing the connection settings for your Gallery.
I am receiving a "403 Forbidden" error when connecting to my Gallery…
Apache mod_security may be preventing access to your gallery. A possible solution is to create (or add to) an .htaccess file in the root of your Gallery installation and enter the following line:
SecFilterEngine Off
HOWEVER, please take the time to research the security risks you take by disabling this feature.
I am receiving "Gallery Response Error: could not parse response." or "HTTP Error 500: internal server error." while using the plug-in…
Please ensure that you have enabled the "Remote" and "Upload" modules in the Gallery administration section so that the plug-in can properly communicate with your Gallery installation.
My newly created album isn't showing up in the album browser…
When you load the plug-in all your current albums are loaded and displayed in the browser. If you edit your albums using a web-broswer (or any other means) while actively using the plug-in, these changes will not be reflected and doing so could lead to errors or strange behavior. It is generally advised not to modify your Gallery installation in any way while using the plug-in.
