I'm half asleep, so hopefully I'm not missing the obvious...

I've been using SVN to update my gallery lately. That updated the imageblock but I forgot you had to go and activate it afterwards. My gallery has been working fine except I didn't notice the random image block in Drupal was missing until just now. I went into the gallery settings (In Drupal) to try and figure out why the block wasn't working and, when I saved the screen, got the error about imageblock not being activated. So I tried to go to my gallery and activate it. But, now, since saving the settings caused it to notice the missing imageblock, I can no longer get to my gallery because of the error!

I was able to work around it by going in non-embedded, but I still wanted to report it because it would be nice to avoid this catch-22 situation. The lack of having imageblock activated shouldn't bring down your whole gallery. I suggest the code that checks for errors and puts up the "cannot initialize embedded gallery" message ignore that error since it isn't critical.

Good point. I will fix it so that the gallery validity check does not include the image block, and then introduce another check for imageblock validity to see if the drupal imageblocks should be included or not.

This is currently working in D6 with the gallery module for D6.

I don't think you'll change that back in 4.7 ;)

Feel free to reopen.

Nah, I moved my G2 4.7 site to Drupal 6 about 2 months ago. :)
