Googled some and found that Gallery2 is most probably in the Fedora development repo. Now to find how I add this repo to CentOS.. Yeah, as you discovered, I think it's in the -testing repository of epel. Usually involves editing on of your epel .repo files, enabling the -testing repo and then doing yum install gallery2*. Or: yum --enablerepo=epel-testing install gallery2* Nice, thanks. I'll keep this for future reference. FWIW, I got some packages from EPEL that weren't available from the CentOS-base and rpmforge repos, like jhead or something like that. It really did come in handy, so thanks again. Anyway, spent some time yesterday afternoon and evening and got Gallery2 running. I think I secured mysql properly as well as the gallery2 folders and files. At least config.php is not readable by the world. Uploaded some albums as well. Only thing left is to figure out to disable commenting completely. One strange thing I ran into was that mysqld wasn't available if I installed mysql from the CLI. If I installed it using the Add/Remove applet in the Start menu it was. I found that a bit strange... For those interested, have a look at http://home-skynet.servehttp.com/gallery2/main.php. Birds, motorcycles and flowers. Mirrors my interests pretty well, not necessarily in that particular order.

You just upload the unpacked gallery2 directory to your webspace, create a db and a corresponding user with phpmyadmin and enter those details into gallery2's installer. Well, using and configuring a database is not something you learn while you go, at least not me. That alone is my main problem with db-driven galleries. Also, since this gallery will be exposed to the world, the db will need some tweaking as well, so as to not be open to anybody. FWIW, I've now more or less committed on Gallery2 and intend to sort mysql out, only it takes time, even years until I can handle my own there.

[CentOS] Web photo gallery options
Hi all, I'm looking for a web photo gallery for my personal web server at home. Till now I've done the galleries manually from Adobe Photoshop Elements, but I feel that is a dead end, kinda', besides the fact that the galleries created are rather static. I'd like an easier way to do this, eg uploading images in folders directly to the gallery and it will take care of what needs to be done automagically, like resizing etc. So far I've come across a project called Gallery2, that seems to do what I want. Downside is that no rpm-packages are available with yum with this one. What web photo gallery software do you guys use? My requirements are only that the software should be simple to install, maintain and add more photos. I'm not a pro (a newbie more like it...) when it comes to mysql and php, so this needs to be easy to do as well, from the gallery standpoint.

Yupp, that's what I was trying to say but failed. 8-} I prefer either a rpm-package to install from or something available via yum. Gallery2 is a tar.gz-packagge. If you want something even easier for personal use there are inexpensive network file server appliances with built in media and web services so you just dump stuff in a mounted directory and it's available.

One catch you need .Net Version 2 and IIS. Hit the *.aspx page and you get nothing but thumbnails. Click the thumbnail you get the full image. Requires nothing but a flat file system. No database. Downfall: It does not like Apache or the Mono Framework. But I suspect you want something else? John ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

As in, using nothing but a directory hierarchy, CSS, and possibly some Javascript? Well, since somebody mentioned dot-net, I think I'm entitled to say that Apple's iWeb does the above ;-) Personally, though, I use gallery2 for most purposes. It has a Java app that you can use to upload hundreds of images at once. Well, as at once as your upload bandwidth allows. The setup is really simple. A lot of open-source apps nowadays come with installers that ask you about the database etc. Gallery2 does that, too. I don't see why anybody on this mailing-list should be incapable of mastering this task. You just upload the unpacked gallery2 directory to your webspace, create a db and a corresponding user with phpmyadmin and enter those details into gallery2's installer.
