    • broken images

    Posted by pj posts: 13

    hi,
    I am running version 1.8.5 of TikiWiki, MySQL 4.0.15, php 4.3.3. All running on IIS 6.0.

    I seem to have a problem with broken images, sometimes they are shown, sometimes not. The images are stored in the image gallery, and browsing through the gallery gives the same behaviour, sometimes I can see the images, but usually not...

    I really can't see any pattern, it seems a bit random. Does anyone have a solution? I have enabled gd, by un-commenting the following line in php.ini
    extension=php_gd2.dll

    Are the images broken, or do you get the word "image" in a box displayed instead of the jpeg? I have this behaviour (and stranger); for me, clicking on the "image" word will result in display of the image (but then there are other problems - e.g. browsing images takes you to a seemingly-random next image...: see http://tikiwiki.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?comments_parentId=14296&topics_threshold=0&topics_offset=0&topics_sort_mode=lastPost_desc&topics_find=&forumId=4

    yes, the word "image" together with a red cross (in Internet Explorer) appears when browsing the file gallery. And when linking to the image in e.g. a module, the alt-text appears. But sometimes the image itself appears. Can't seem to find a pattern, but I feel that gifs are shown more often than jpegs.

    a workaround: I saved the image I wanted to use as a file on the file-system (i.e. it is not stored in the database) and referenced it directly.

    so, instead of

    I use


    seems to work fine.

    so, instead of
    img alt="Hello" src="/show_image.php?id=7"
    I use
    img alt="Hello" src="/hello.jpg"


    seems to work fine.

    PS! sorry for posting double, but I had to omit the less-than and greater-than signs from my original post. And I was not able to edit my original post either...
