Media Gallery not displaying images and image thumbnails or youtube video properly

I have pretty much the same problems as Ao. Though I haven't tested the internet sources stuff. Uploading the file works. But it doesn't show any thumbnails, or regular sized views in the gallery. You have to download or look in the library to actually see it. The placeholder graphic is used in the galleries.

Fresh download of media gallery beta 3.

Same problem happens to me too.

Same problem here..

+1

+1 anxious to see this work, have read a few threads on Media Gallery Issues.

so close! and frustrating, because in effect, it's a very similar set up, with the same modules (article here), as are live on Drupal Gardens, working in perfect conjunction and quite effectively. (with the addition of the plupload integration module for multiple uploads). Gardens, however is now on Drupal 7 Alpha 6, is it perhaps something in Alpha 6 or in cck (7.x-2.x-dev)?

Wow.. picture view (link) is very nice.. i have the same, but only with the (image-x-generic.png) view. damn i love to see this work....

+1 Same here.

Same here, subscribing.

Perhaps this is to do with imagecache somehow? The default gallery thumbnail style that it creates is an enormous 400x400px image, but that's not the size of the placeholder graphic that I see instead of images...

This problem occurs because the code calls theme_file_link to provide the HTML for the media_gallery teaser image. You can see some illustrative debug logging out put below. Following the code, you go from drupal_render to theme_file_link to theme_file_icon to file_icon_url to file_icon_path. This (file_icon_path) tries to find the most appropriate mime related icon to display. After the code drills down to theming the file field, using the $elements['#theme']: file_link, the theme_file_link function will *ONLY* provide the file's associated mime-related icon image along with a text link to the actual image, *NOT* an img element for the image we want. So, if this is coming in automatically from drupal, I think we want to provide a custom function in place of $elements['#theme']: file_link, such as theme_media_gallery_file_link. Does that make sense? If so, what would be the best way to replace the theme_file_link? Does this help to narrow it down?

Okay, I've solved display of images and thumbs for me.

Go to /admin/config/media/types/manage/image/display (this is for "image", but you may need to verify other media types) of your site, and click through all of the display modes, making sure that instead of "Generic file" you have a fitting image size style set. For me it was all set to "File", whilst checking on my test drupalgardens site I can see that they are all set to something. After I've changed it - it now works!

I hope this helps.

Oddly, though, the size presets selectable here are not the same that I see in the sites image styles list - for example, styles "media_gallery_thumbnail" and "media_gallery_large" aren't available for some reason.

I would appreciate help if someone could point me to where these file styles are configured - I am really happy it works now, but I'd like a little more control :)

I was also just able to fix this in a different way. In Structure > Content Types > Gallery >> Manage Display >>> Teaser, I changed the format to Preview and the first image file shows as expected.

Yep use #14 (for all display modes). Don't listen to me at #16.

Ao, they have the same problem with cluttered links on the drupalgardens site, so may be that will get fixed soon (I am using Omega theme, so this doesn't happen for me).

I am glad the solution helped you!

@Ao, no, I haven't tried YouTube, have no such requirement to the site I am working on now, sorry.

YES! "/admin/config/media/types/manage/image/display" (per #14 & #22) needed a look at! i can confirm that this now appears to work VERY well on my site. have a look. lemme know if something sticks. i will continue to fiddle and push it a little, and report back any [new] issues. One thing, on enabling the Media Gallery module, i did get an error, so disabled it, then enabled it again, and it was clear.

these were the final versions of the related modules i used (i applied NO patches yet, and used a fresh D7 install with no additional theme): **please note, these were the first 'working versions' of these modules that i was able to make work on my site, there have since been updates. (i have removed the modules' reference links, to prevent confusion. as far as i understand, the very latest versions of these are working.)

update: April 13 '11: all working perfectly including plupload. a more complete blog on this is: here.

For me the gallery thumb is stretching to the full width of the content area on the standard frontpage and in the node-based views I create - instead of a neat small "square_thumbnail" image that I see on the actual Media Gallery page. Does anyone else have the same?

I'd like to make my views display the same size of thumbnails that the gallery page is showing.

I had the same issue as #25; patch over here: http://drupal.org/node/1047970

For those experiencing the original bug here (images being replaced with a generic placeholder image instead), this is not fixed.

It actually seems to be a duplicate of #1020922: Images aren't displayed and are instead replaced by a generic file icon (when used with the Styles 7.x-2.x branch). Please try the patch I just posted there to see if it helps.

hi,

i can confirm that #23 embloo solution did the trick well.

eph

How do you give permission to users to upload photos, or is this just strictly for administrator?

I think they just need the "Add media" permission.

I tried everything, I can't get other users to post pics, only administrator.

Thanks for the great help in #14.

@anthonyR, I am glad to be able to help!

I can upload images and it appears to succeed, however, no images or thumbnails are displayed anywhere. Solution #14 had no effect. I can upload the same images and they never appear.

From what I can see, the files get "uploaded" to sites/default/private

Thumbnails get copied to sites/default/private/styles/square_thumbnail/private

However, in sites/default/private there seems to be an .htaccess file:

more .htaccess
SetHandler Drupal_Security_Do_Not_Remove_See_SA_2006_006
Deny from all
Options None
Options +FollowSymLinks

which would seem to be stopping anyone from looking at the files.
Could this be causing the problem?

Also, I don't know if this is relevant, but this shows up on my error.log in /var/log/apache2:

Thu Apr 07 18:13:10 2011] [error] [client 128.128.65.3] File does not exist: /var/www/media-gallery, referer: http://mudguts.whoi.edu/?q=node/5

Should the files be copied there instead of sites/default/private ?

That can't be good either.

Thanks for any ideas.

This is the thing (embloo's post 23) that worked for me - just like the man said fresh install and install the modules in the order he said. Thanks and to the other posts as well. D7 is tremendous and getting this set of media modules to work has been my only real problem so far.

see post 23 - and visit the site you get more info and you can see it working.

Hi, I tried, media gallery using following module in windows as well as fedora 14 system.

colorbox-7.x-1.0-beta4.tar
media_gallery-7.x-1.0-beta5.tar
media-7.x-1.0-beta4.tar
multiform-7.x-1.0-beta1.tar
plupload-7.x-1.0-beta3.tar
styles-7.x-2.0-alpha8.tar

after uploading the image, it does not showing any thumbnails or images in gallery but all the files are stored in sites/defualt/files

i tried to solve the issue as mentioned in earlier post

http://drupal.org/node/1020922

but it also couldnt help me..

please let me know your suggestion to solve this issue.

I got the same problem here.
No thumbnails or images when view gallery, but uploaded pics are listed in the library.
Post #23 didn't solve anything.

colorbox-7.x-1.0-beta4.tar
media_gallery-7.x-1.0-beta5.tar
media-7.x-1.0-beta4.tar
multiform-7.x-1.0-beta1.tar
plupload-7.x-1.0-beta3.tar
styles-7.x-2.0-alpha8.tar

As stated in the README.txt, Media Gallery 7.x-1.0-beta5 is tested to work with Styles 7.x-2.0-alpha5.

If you're trying to run it with some other version of the Styles module, it shouldn't be a surprise if it breaks; these modules are all undergoing major development changes.

The read me for Media Gallery Beta 6 doesn't mention Styles at all, is it still necessary? I can only find Styles alpha 8 on their page now, so if it is, and 8 breaks this, what can we do?

I have the same issue as above in that plupload breaks this so that the media_gallery files are never created after upload.

I had the same problem and was fixed with #14 comments, just with minor changes. below were the steps that were performed.

In Admin - Configuration - Media - Image Styles, I have to override all types to take the default setting and then save it.

This fixed for me.

Hi,

I've tried many attempts to tweak using #14 but I do not really understand how it really works.

I've attempted to uploaded images or submit from the library but my galleries keeps having this "No Images Yet" problem.

Please help.

Using Drupal 7.2

#45 worked for me. I had to override the image styles to see the other image styles in the view I was creating (unformatted w/fields, then had a video field for which I wanted a thumbnail to appear).

Also, the path changed that's mentioned above. It is now /admin/config/media/file-types . I am a bit confused as to the difference between my site's default image styles (thumbnail, medium, large, square_thumbnail) and the different items listed under, for example, file types >> video (default, link, preview, small, large, original).

I have this exact same issue.
I have uploaded images to the gallery and the thumbnails used to show. But now when i upload i get no thumbnail.
The image uploads fine but there is a broken link for the thumb.
Can anyone help me fix this as it for customers website which relies on a portfolio.
Thank you

Regarding #14:

The path didnt work for me.

It was:
/admin/config/media/file-types/manage/image/file-display

Not:
/admin/config/media/types/manage/image/display

Apart from that: bloody great fix that saved me tons of time!
