Anonymous 1) you got that error because of a bug in v0.3.8, which should have shown a proper error message if the directory creation failed. It has been fixed for the next release

2) safe mode is more an illusion of protection rather than a real protection, however with safe mode enabled you can only use the already created category (with the next version should be possible to use categories created manually through FTP), see also this bug tracker item

Thank you for pointing this issue out! smile

I know that "safe_mode" is more or less a "illusion" but my webhost didn''t know that. sad
Since it works great to create subsites and other folders thrue http, then it should work to create gallery categories to, or have i missed something!?

The next update will create the folder, but...see below answer.

Yes, you have missed to read this bug tracker item, which explains that even if you create the folder through PHP then you cannot upload to that folder because (in most cases) safe_mode prevents uploads to PHP-created folders. I am still looking for workarounds but haven't found any yet sad

Anonymous Good news for you and all the others safe mode users! cheerful

Version 0.3.9 will have a 3rd tab in the wizard form that will allow automatic recognition of gallery categories & photos! So you will just create a folder (via FTP) and upload (via FTP) photos in it, and then the wizard indexes it in the database. This feature was by long under development but I did not have the time to test it - now it works ok.

I hope it will be useful.
