[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] thumbnails still not generating in version 1.7.2

@jdeelen
hi, I have tried your suggestion.
unfortunatelly it is the same. i go with thumbnail creating, it seems everything is ok. it can reach 100% but the little pop-up window has not disappeared. it is still up with not any data in it and no thumbs were created.

if i am right i can not downgrade to 1.6.2 without any data-lose, am i right?

hi,

just to inform you, i have fixed it.
i have already increased the limit of php memory in wp-config.php, but that did not worked. Finally I have set the following line: @ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ‘128M’);
into /wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/lib/gd.thumbnail.inc.php to enable and everything works perfectly in NGG.

Happy New Year to everyone! ??

It was working fine, but now that I just updated and now I get the error updating thumbnail if I try the “Edit Thumb” link but if I use the bulk “Create new thumbnail”, I get a 100% complete but no thumb.

There is a src populated as the image path, but that file does not exist (sitename/wp-content/uploads/thumbs/thumbs_imagename.jpg)

I changed the @ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ‘128M’); as well as changed folder security to 777.

Any ideas?

I upgraded to the new version today and IT WORKS!

I was at the newest version – still didn’t work – the base images were huge – 4320×3240 – I didn’t upload them! – I had to bump the php memory limit to 128 to get them to be processed correctly.

Clarification from post 2 days ago:
When I updated to 1.7.3, it works again.

I just installed the plugin for the first time and uploaded my first gallery. I am not getting thumbnails with large images, even after bumping the php memory limit to 128. However, with smaller images, I am getting thumbnails.

I have the same problem. I’ve made an update WordPress and NGG for last version and NGG is no longer generate a thumbnails. I checked the 777 at folder and memory limit (and tested by script), have tried other various solutions found on the Internet. I tried to upload through FTP, uploader, flash uploader. It does not help. I uploaded files of version 1.62, it’s worked once time. Then NGG asked to update the database. And after that script stopped working again.

If you can tell any solutions can you tell me how to return to 1.6.2 in DB?

To previous. I upgraded jquery to 1.4.4. Nothing.
Please, tell me how can i downgrade NGG to 1.6.2…
All decisions which I saw did not help! (((

I checked health plugin with all recommendations, BUT:
Check plugin/theme conflict
Test failed, disable other plugins & switch to default theme
Test image function
Couldn’t create image, check your memory limit
Check theme compatibility
??Missing the call to in your theme

Everything works except checking for new photos
My head is broken ((((((

Pardon, i missed main – NextGEN Gallery requires PHP 5.2 or higher
((((

I am having the same trouble in v1.7.4. I have checked all of the above. Everything else works, I get to 100% but the thumbnails creation window does not close automatically. No thumbnails are created in the thumbs folder although the images are uploaded. Any other ideas?

sitebuildernow, you need to install the GD library. If your server is running ubuntu, you can install the php5-gd package. Or you can enable the experimental image magick support, the test will fail if you do, but thumbnails will still be created.

I had issues with thumbnail generations: As long as the filenames contained german umlaute like ?ü?, thumbnail generation failed. when i changed that to pure acsii, it worked. since everything I use is utf-8, this looks for some change.

With version 1.7.4, no thumbnails generated.
It was working perfect with version 1.7.3
