NextGEN Gallery Plugin – Cannot Import Images

Hi.

I have been having this problem for a while now. I install the plugin fine but when it comes to importing image (via any method) the progress bar stays stuck at 0%. I have tried uploading my images by FTP then scanning the folder for new images but the same thing happens.

I have set-up my gallery and album even but it is not working. Strangely enough I have had this plugin work on a local host install but not on my live server. I remember someone saying on this forum last year that my version oh PHP may have something to do with it.

I am on PHP 4.4.8. Could anyone say whether they have came across the same problem and if they have any fix for it??

I have tried adding this to the .htaccess file to force php5 but it doesn’t work:
‘AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
AddType x-mapp-php4 .php4
‘

I really want to use this plugin but just doesn’t want to work for me..

HELP!!
