ZOOM Gallery - Can anyone get it to work with 4.5.1

Davyd · 01.10.2004, 16:08

Hey All

Recently there has been discussion about 4.5.1 compatible components and one member, Troubadour, has got it working by making a slight change (seeList of 4.5.1 compatible components???)

That didnt work for me. i get this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: openconnectionwithreturn() in /home/httpd/vhosts/paullew.com/httpdocs/davyd/components/com_zoom/classes/zoom.class.php on line 385

By the way i am using 4.5.1a and Zoom Gallery v2.1.2

Any help greatly appreciated - I love 4.5.1 now just wiating for more compabitable components to come along!!

This patch re-adds the missing functions openConnectionWithReturn() and openConnectionNoReturn() to Mambo 4.5.1-Stable.

1. Make sure you really have Mambo 4.5.1-Stable or 4.5.1a, because this patch will not work for any other version.

2. Rename the original file includes/database.php to database.php-dist

3. Copy the database.php from this patch to the includes directory

Have Phun...

If you will also use the lightbox you must in components/com_zoom/classes/zoom.class.php for "function extractArchive" and "function createArchive" change the path from "administrator/classes/pclzip.lib.php" to "administrator/includes/pcl/pclzip.lib.php"

Hello!

You have also change the view.php if you want to use the gallerie with the popup funktion.

PHP Code:

          // redefine the mambo database object to use the comment function...

 
    require('../../classes/database.php');

Change "classes" in " includes" and it will work!

Just did the various steps listed above and my website is back to working, this time with 4.5.1a! Thanks for the help in working this out!

I've applied the above patches to zOOm 2.12 in mambo 4.5.1a and can get most things to work except one. When I set zOOm to view images as pop-ups, I get a 500 internal server error.

EDIT: As it turns out, I had to set the permissions of view.php to 644 and now it works properly.

Maybe anyone can help me? I instaled zoom gallery successfull, but when I click zoom gallery admin - I get nothing. Blank page.

Just a thought on something to check as I was experiencing problems I could not attribute to anything in particular.

Do you have any firewall software running on your computer? I use ZoneAlarm and the combination of that and IE or Netscape were causing some weird things in the administration pages - pages would not refresh, I would get logged out when editing something... I disabled ZoneAlarm and things started to work again. I started using Firefox and it seems to like working alongside ZoneAlarm.

Some thoughts...
