What a pain. I have spent the last two days trying to make an image gallery script work on the masters web server. But to no avail. Unfortunately, I don\’t have the unix sysadmin experience, so I am not sure how to troubleshoot anything. My extent of sysadmin experience only extends to novice use of vi (which I dislike) and hitting rm * -rf (because I am addicted to power trips). I don\’t understand why it\’s so difficult to install on this server when I have always had a flawless experience on my 99.9% uptime guaranteed $50/year web servers.
Heheh, stop with the poor excuses my friend. The answer to your problems lies in the fact that you need to read the error logs. Right after you witness your script fail, if the server is apache, do this:
go into /var/log/apache or /var/log/httpd and type in:
\’tail -100 error_log | more\’
substitute the correct error_log name.
This one\’s on the house ;)
