    You need to install the gdlib library (needs compiling into php). I could be wrong but i've a feeling it's possible to do it with some apt-get trickery. Otherwise you need to recompile apache --with-gdlib or some such. If you have a host it's their job.

    ok i've installed it, now what? restart apache?
  • MinisweeperMinisweeper New
    yup. should do the trick.

    ok, i put the filebrowser in the root of my webserver dir and it overwrote the index.html file. I have pictures in that dir, can i change the thumbnailer code so that ppl can look thru the album??
  • MinisweeperMinisweeper New
    eh? Looking through the album is nothing to do with the thumbnailer. There should be an index.php packaged in the filebrowser zip which dos that job for you.
  • andrewm659andrewm659
    interesting then why did it overwrite the index.html ??
  • MinisweeperMinisweeper New
    No idea. The filebrowser package i have doesnt have any .html files.

    ok then instead of going to .htm it went to the index.php file how can i make it go to the .htm file?

    You'll need to create a .htaccess file with

    DirectoryIndex index.htm

    Alternatively rename the .htm file to firstpage.htm and put

    DirectoryIndex firstpage.htm

    Another option is to rename the index.php to something else. That's what I did but in future I'll use the .htaccess method.
