Hi guys,

I used to use Gallery2 for a couple of years before my website broke and I stopped using it. I then installed Gallery3 until I realized that version cannot be embedded in Drupal.

I now tried to reinstall Gallery2(same hoster and everything) and I get a blank main.php after the end of the installation. It only says "Error". I tried two ways: Direct FTP upload and also via the preinstaller. Both ways returned the same error. During the installation process everything worked fine, no warnings, errors - nothing.

Thanks in advance.

Gallery version (not just "2"): 2.3.1
PHP version (e.g. 5.1.6): 5.2.12
PHPInfo Link (see FAQ):
Webserver (e.g. Apache 1.3.33): Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu)
Database (e.g. MySql 5.0.32): 5.1
Activated toolkits (e.g. NetPbm, GD):
Operating system (e.g. Linux): Windows 7
Browser (e.g. Firefox 2.0): Firefox 4.0 /Opera 11.01

Although in my experience just plain error usually means DB connection error you won't know for sure until you put gallery into debug mode.

gallery is trying to create directories in your g2data for cache, albums, module info...
chmod -R 0777 /path/to/g2data
