expose

Hi,
I have this message after the installation of expose at system check of expose.

Code: [Select]

PHP: disk_free_space() has been disabled for security reasons
uri: index2.php?option=com_expose&task=check
path: /administrator/components/com_expose/admin.expose.php
version: Elxis 2008.0 Stable rev1891 [ Olympus ] 10-February-2008 00:39 GMT+2
WARNING(2): /home/?????/public_html/components/com_expose/expose/manager/check_system.php, line 127
Does the variable of disk_free_space cause  problem? 

I can't upload images and i get a message for no communication with the server

[datahell]

Expose gave me the same error in a site in my server as I have the function disk_free_space also disabled in php (It is a function often used in hacking). It's usage is useless in the component and can be safely be removed.

Solutions:
1. Edit Expose back end files find the code block that has this function and edit/remove it.
2. Contact Ivan Trebjesanin to help you.
3. Install and use component StarGallery. The old StarGallery for Elxis 2006.4 works fine in Elxis 2008.x except from the pages navigation if you  have SEO PRO enabled. I have made an updated version of StarGallery that I can send you if you wish that works fine in Elxis 2008.x. It is  not a brand new version but just a quick-fix version.

I ll try to disable the function from the back end but can you sent me please the stargallery if i can't manage to find the solution.

Thank you a lot

The php error disappears when i edit this lines at check_system.php but the problem continues .

Checking the manual i find the solution and must be probably with .htaccess file but i m not sure what to include in it .

7.3.2 I can’t upload photo’s from my PC to the site ”Could not connect with the server” error message

This is a long issue..

First, check if your server has the minimum requirements for Joomla!:

Check if the server has the minimum requirements for Exposé:

    * PHP version 4 or higher
    * DOM or DOMXML library (in RC4, this is used in frontend and backend)
    * GD library and the ICONV library extensions (only if backend Manager used)
    * Verify http://www.gotgtek.com/cms/expose-php-settings.html for additional info

Restart the server service to apply the new settings.

Did you try to change the .htaccess file ? By default, in the root of your Joomla! site, you can find a htaccess.txt file which you need to rename. Add the following lines to it:

# Config for Exposé component: upload errors SecFilterEngine??? Off SecFilterScan???POST Off # End config Exposé

Note: Your host can restrict some or all functions that you write in this file. If you get an Apache error after renaming/creating this file. If so, you’ll need to contact your host. (more info on http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#allowoverride )

Finally i can use this nice photo gallery component but with some small tricks 

I had a problem when i was trying to upload photos "Could not communicate with the server " was the error message i check the manual and i ve see that i had to change a lot of settings most off them had to do with basic security rules.

There is no need to do this just upload your photos to the /bucket folder and then you can select it from the album manager menu and the "Add from Bucket" button.

Thats it and your gallery is ready. Works fine with all the browsers
