Rotating Banners not showing up [#1166996]

Hey guys,

I'm using Drupal 7 (installed via Microsoft Web Platform Installer) on Windows Server 2008 with IIS.

I'm having issues with the rotating banner function of marinelli.
All the images (standard ones, as well as self-uploaded) just won't show up. (see: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17080466/screen2.jpg )

When I analyze the code, I find the following in the place where the images should be:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17080466/screen1.jpg
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17080466/screen3.jpg

<img class="slide" id="slide-number-0" longdesc="Test2" typeof="foaf:Image" src="http://141.47.2.36/kiga/" alt="Test2" title="Test2" style="position: absolute; top: 0px; opacity: 1; width: 1018px; height: 320px; z-index: 6; display: block; left: 0px"/>

It seems to me that the javascript cannot assign the images correctly.

Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong here? Is there a way to specify the imagefolder?

Unfortunately I can't send you a direct link to the website, because the server I'm using is a VM from my college and is only accessible within the Campus network, so the screenshots have to be enough.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have no idea where to look further.

Thanks in advance
Philipp

A few suggestions:

1. Be sure your images are marked "published"
2. Your img tag looks weird. it does not specify an actual image, just a directory, it seems. Did you upload the banner using the filebox at the bottom of the page?
3. If you are fooling with the file folder, you may be adding complexity before getting the thing to work "Out of the Box"

Hard to guess without seeing your site, but I'd start there.

Hey there, thanks for the reply.

1. They are

2. I know, that's what it looks like just out of the box. Just a folder, not the pictures (the default pics are labeled 1 to 6.jpg)

I also tried uploading a file over the filebox and get a "Server Error" afterwards... The new file is getting uploaded though (I can see it in the folder on the filesystem - this might be a permission issue), but nothing else happens.

3. I don't want to change it, I just wanted to know if I have to specify it anywhere...
Because that's probably the error. http://141.47.2.36/kiga/ is the MAIN FOLDER of my drupal installation.

You'd land on the mainpage if you could open the link. So the script somehow messes up the imagepath (which is supposed to be http://141.47.2.36/kiga/sites/all/themes/marinelli/img/advertise/1.jpg) - I can open that in a browser when I'm @ Campus and it shows me the pic.

That's why I'm thinking it's a bug in the JavaScript and not a permission issue on the server side

Hey guys,

I tried some things and now I am utterly confused.

First: I deleted ALL images via Banner Management -> Delete Image in the config-window of Marinelli.
Second: I tried reuploading the standard pictures over the filebox (1.jpg to 6.jpg), obviously I did 1.jpg first.

Result: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17080466/drupal_issue1.jpg -> everything worked fine! Amazed by my progress, I went on to 2.jpg

Result: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17080466/drupal_issue2.jpg -> I get a 500 Internal Server Error. BUT the image got uploaded (I can see it in the filesystem on the server: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17080466/drupal_issue3.jpg

Well, so I tried some more. 3, 4, 5, 6 all didn't work.

Now comes the funny (and even more confusing part):
I delete every image again (Banner Management -> Delete Image)

After that, I try to upload 2.jpg first -> 500 Internal Server Error
Then I reset again, rename 1 to something else and rename any image to 1.jpg, try uploading -> Works like a charm.

Obviously I can ONLY upload images which are named "1.jpg" without an error. Everything else fails. Any ideas on that one?! Even if I did that, I'd just overwrite them, because they keep their names on the server. So that's no solution at all.

PLEASE help me with this issue, as it is very important for me and this project to get the slideshow working.
