Hi All
I have three cms running.
one when you use Imagemanager shows all the thumbnails correctly.
On the other two ( different isps for each).
Thumbnails never show (the actual image is fine)
I have emailed the developer serverl times but no replies.
I checked to see if one of the isp's had GD enabled - yes 2.0
Has anyone else had this problem.? Soultions. Suggestions?
Thanks
Chris

I've never been able to get this to reproduce. To be honest, I have no idea how to even go about trying to fix this one without an environment where it happens...

That would be great. I'll delay 0.9 if necessary, since it's kind of important.

Can anyone enlighten here?
From trawling the forums, I gather CMSMS is supposed to create thumbnails for images that are too large to display, and that these files are named thumb_[filename].xxx. I'm not seeing any of these in my image directories, but the directories were 775, so I opened them up to 777.
Should the script to create thumbnails run when I hit the image manager page? Or is this some sort of background script that runs intermittently?
I'm halfway through some decent documentation for a client and I want a screen shot with thumbnails! I only now just realized some weren't being rendered, which started this whole forum search.
Any info appreciated.

p.s. running 10.3

Hi smack,
It may be that your server doesn't have an image library installed (like GD or ImageMagick). What image library to use is set in config.php
By the way, if you're using 0.10.3 I'd first recommend an upgrade to 0.10.4 (security fix), but even better to 0.11.2 (new features).

Many thanks for the lightning quick reply.
But that's not it - we do have GD installed, though it's a fairly old version (1.6).
Here's what I see in the config file:
$config['image_manipulation_prog'] = 'GD';
$config['image_transform_lib_path'] = '/usr/bin/ImageMagick/';
We *don't* have ImageMagick installed. Is that the problem? or is it the version of GD?

Hi,
I'm having trouble with the thumbnails too. PHP is installed with '
' and I'm unable to alter that setting. GD is version 2.0.28 with both GIF and JPG support.
But the ImageManager does not show thumbnails for either JPG or GIF-files.
By adding an '
' statement in theĀ I can see, that the GD.php file in the 'lib/filemanager/ImageManager/Classes/' folder is trying to call the '
' GD function with the correct image stream, filename and JPG quality - however the file is not generated although the permission of the folder is 777.
Is it a bug in the ImageManager module or something with my settings?
