I seem to have the same problem as some of the other people on this site - don't seem to be able to find a solution.

I've run the sef advanced tester and it didn't indicate any errors

I've installed the Ajax photo album

and set the permissions for the folders to 755

Problem is I can't add, edit or delete albums as there are no buttons.

I'm running Joomla 1.5 (in legacy mode)

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Matt

i've done a reinstall changed the permissions and still no ability to add the albums.

I've treid adding the mosapa module and getthis error


        * It was not possible to copy the selected file.
        * JInstaller::install: Failed to copy file: /home/freeatla/public_html/matabwa/tmp/install_496b76627eb15/mosapa.php to /home/freeatla/public_html/matabwa/plugins/content/mosapa.php

any other ideas?
THanks again

 when i got to
components/com_apa/scriptload.php
i get a 'bad request'

does that help.

Thanks

You probably have a javascript error. It might be because of this: http://www.sakic.net/support/faq/ajax_photo_album/#2

Point your browser to http://www.yoursite.com/administrator/components/com_apa/scriptload.php

If you get an error then it's that problem. This file must have execution rights.

I'm having the same problems, on site running Joomla 1.0.12.

The above solution doesn't work because there is no such file as http://www.yoursite.com/administrator/components/com_apa/scriptload.php.

There is http://www.yoursite.com/administrator/components/com_apa/admin.scriptload.php.

Could this be part of the problem? I copied the admin.scriptload.php file and renamed the copy scriptload.php and gave it 777 permissions, but there's still no option to create albums in the component admin.

Seems like a lot of people are having this problem.

Right, it should be admin.scriptload.php

Make sure it's executable:
http://www.yoursite.com/administrator/components/com_apa/admin.scriptload.php

It should display like this:
http://joomla.sakic.net/administrator/components/com_apa/admin.scriptload.php

If it displays anything else you have a server problem.

Thanks, I checked the server error logs. turns out permissions were too loose on the admin/components directory. When I fixed that, it worked.

Is it odd that loose permissions would create an error?

I'm having the same issue.  Changed permissions on the 2 files as indicated.  Check with my hosting company and their reply on the "bad request" message:

"This error is not caused due to any permission issue. This is some thing related with your script. Please check it. Please understand that if it was a permission error it will not show as "Bad Request". Also please note that, we don't have script support."

My link is
http://www.teamflores.com/joomcf/administrator/components/com_apa/admin.scriptload.php

This is a demo version.  I'll purchase if I can get this to work!

Thanks for the clarification on the script.  I'm not sure what else to do - when I try to add an album I get the error

"Could not create the directory.
Note that the relevant permissions on the parent directory must permit this."

I have changed all files and folders to "755".
