I've installed the latest 1.5.x version of Gallery in Mambo 4.5.1a (which is supposed to be supported). I got it installed, did the installation on the Mambo end, but when I click on the link in Mambo to access the gallery, I get a page that simply says "Security Violation".

Ideas?

Change the space html /:
$gallery->app->geeklog_dir = "/var/www/html /public_html";

To:
$gallery->app->geeklog_dir = "/var/www/html/public_html";

That will fix it...

Hi. I am having this same problem and I am a bit confused. Where exactly do I change the code? Sorry I am a novice at this stuff

In your config file, you remove the space between the html and the /: html /
:wink:

swbuehler, you probably filled out the wrong path in the component configuration. Make sure that there are no spaces in the path and that it's correct.

Yes, that was it for me with Mambo 4.5.1a and 1.4.4 upgraded to 1.5-RC1. I fixed the path in the Mambo component (Components -> Gallery) and the "security violation" vanished! So far, it seems 1.5 has cleared up a bunch of problems I had with 1.4.4 (knock on wood!).

Geeklog directory is left blank in the Gallery Configuration Wizard, and isn't a line in config.php (just a commented out marker).

Thanks!
