[Plugin: Zenphoto Gallery] fopen

Thanks for your feedback!

What happens if you comment out the fopen stuff zpg_check_json (line 550) and just return true? I use fopen only to check wether the address is valid, the actual data is retrieved by file_get_contents; maybe it does not use fopen?

If not so, please open a ticket in the bugtracker and I will have a look when I work on the plugin again. I do not know to what extent curl can replace file_get_contents and wether it works for a proper superset of people, but maybe one can offer both?

Hi Raphael,

Thanks very much for your response. I really appreciate your help. I will make these changes and see if all works.

Returning true didn’t help, so I ended up enabling fopen on my server briefly to see if that would help. Still no luck, but at least now I know that it isn’t an fopen issue. Seems like it might be a permissions issue on json.php inside of zenphoto.

Thanks again for your help.

You are very welcome!

Maybe PHP offers more information if you enable debugging mode? (via wp-config.php)

As for permission issues, just make sure that json.php has the same owner/group and permissions as other Zenphoto files you access.

Hi Raphael,

Debugging through wp-config didn’t shed much light on the issue. I also double-checked my permissions for json.php. I’m still getting that same ‘check configuration for details’ message where the album should appear.

My gallery is at: https://journalism.indiana.edu/apps/zenphoto/

I’m attempting to call a sub album by like this:

[zenalbum album=ErniePyle/BackHome]

Do you have any other tips? I’ve been thinking about installing a wp pear debug or something similar.

Thanks again for your time.
