I'm betting this is a memory limit issue. Please post a phpinfo.php url, here is information on how to create a file and where to put it, http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/Gallery2:faq#What_information_is_required_when_I_ask_for_help_in_the_forums.3F

deactivate the gd and exif module, and maybe give it 24mb memory limit. does it work then?

I deactivated gd and exif. Now it works very fine. Is the memory limit for restrictions of the filesize for uploading files?
Thank you for your help. You did a great job valiant.

thanks :)

basically, when uploading large files, there are multiple limits involved. first the limit of the webserver (apache), then the upload limits of php (see faq) and finally the php memory limit. g2 has to generate thumbnails for your photos, and when you choose to create them with GD, it will do everything in PHP. thus the larger the picture, the more memory GD needs. i don't know the exact formula though.

if you use imagemagick or netpbm, it uses non-PHP memory to generate the images. so independent of image size, the php memory limit can be the same when using imagemagick or netpbm.
i'd recommend using imagemagick or netpbm over GD anyway.

the exif thing is a different issue. the exif module has a few bugs for certain photos that are not 100% intact and it can go havok and tries to use as much memory as it gets until it hits the php memory limit.
we'll try to fix that after g 2.0... but the issue with GD and the memory limit won't go away.
