Actually, when I enter that URL manually, I get a web page, not an image. Note that it's a Gallery URL, and not relative to the Serendipity root.

In fact, none of the images in the Gallery page I get to are visible, even if I click the link.

I'm using Fx 1.5 for Linux.

http://www.bbrats.com/gallery/index.php
is actually the site- i am having the problem that http://www.bbrats.com/gallery takes me back to the weblog... and i haven't figured out why. my other site, same host, same everything in the setup works fine. maybe that needs to be looked at first... what do i need to check in the root to get to the ground of this? thanks!! r

You should not link to "http://www.bbrats.com/gallery", but always link to the specific file that you want to link to.

The reason is that your htaccess file and your virtualhost configuration defines the "DirectoryIndex". Your server does not recognize "index.php" as a DirectoryIndex, so the one of serendipity tells your server to use "/index.php" as the default Index when you do not specify a file.

You could also put a .htaccess file into your gallery directory with this content:

Code: Select all

DirectoryIndex index.php
Your core problem also is a result of this: The ".htaccess" file of your gallery is not properly working, so the special method of using "pretty URLs" does not work there. Maybe your provider does not support the way that coppermine needs to show pretty URLs.

I don't know coppermine, but try to configure it so that it does not use "pretty URLs".
