gallery for Debian ------------------ /etc/gallery/apache.conf ------------------------ /etc/gallery/apache.conf contains apache configuration snippets that with recommended configuration. The default /gallery alias has been commented out. Uncomment this alias and restart apache to enable the alias. /etc/gallery/apache.conf also includes a FilesMatch block that disallows certain file extensions from being displayed. The default CSS files (/usr/share/gallery/css/*.css.default) get blocked by this FilesMatch block. CONFIGURATION ------------- Gallery is configured through a web-based configurator. Quick steps to configure gallery are: 1. as root, run /usr/share/gallery/configure.sh 2. Go to your gallery URL with a browser (e.g. http://www.example.com/gallery/index.php) 3. configure using the web interface and save configuration 4. as root, run /usr/share/gallery/secure.sh You can now login as the administrator, and add pictures to your website http://www.example.com/gallery by clicking "login" in the upper right corner. At the prompt, enter: Username: admin Password: the-password-you-entered-during-configuration See /usr/share/doc/gallery/README for more instructions on configuring gallery (you may also want to read the DEBIAN CHANGES section as well). DEBIAN CHANGES -------------- The following changes have been made to the upstream gallery source for the Debian package. Functional/Layout Changes: . files symlinked into other portions of the fs for FHS compliance: gallery/setup -> /var/lib/gallery/setup gallery/.htaccess -> /etc/gallery/htaccess gallery/config.php -> /etc/gallery/config.php . changes to setup.sh and configure.sh to work with debian config scheme PHP SETUP --------- The default PHP setup in Debian sets memory_limit to 8 megabytes (8M). If you work with a relatively large set of images (several hundred or more) you may need to update the memory_limit in your php.ini. -- Michael C. Schultheiss Tue, 15 Aug 2006 17:26:31 +0000
