Image Manager missing images

Anyone had any trouble with certain images not showing up in the image manager at all?

Example: I have a folder with 10 images in it, all jpg. When I go to the image manager and navigate to the folder, only 5 of the images appear. The others dont show at all. I can go to the folder in a web browser and display all of the images using a url, so it seems they work in the browser, but why would they not show up in the Image Manager?

thank you.

Re: Image Manager missing images

OK after more testing, and realizing the common thing among the images that don't show in the image manager is that the name of the images start with the letter t, I have to say that any image name that starts with the letter t will not show up in the image manager. Can anyone confirm this in their installations??? Thank you.

Nope:) BTW, are you sure your file names doesn't start with '.' (with dot)?

Re: Image Manager missing images

Post a sample of one of the images that don't work.  Are you using GD or Imagemagick to do the resizing (setting in ImageManager).

Re: Image Manager missing images

Here's my situation: 

I have roughly 24 images in my /images/ folder. They were all uploaded with The image manager.
The image manager works, it will insert images, resize, whatever. The only problem is that only 5 out of the 24 images show up.

Here's my file list:

background.jpg
banner.jpg
banner_bg.jpg
image001.jpg
image002.jpg
image003.jpg
*image004.gif
image005.jpg
*image006.gif
*image007.jpg
image008.jpg
*image009.gif
image010.jpg
image011.gif
*image012.gif
image013.jpg
image014.jpg
logo.jpg
logo_tagline.jpg
OKTGPoizei.jpg
saturday.gif
signature.gif
sunday.gif

The ones with a * are the ones that actually do display.

I've fixed the config.inc file (I think) and according the the plugin page, my xinha config file is created correctly... and everything else works, just some images will not display.....

Any ideas? should I post anything more? (config files /etc?)

Oh PS, the images work on the page. Once they're inserted into Xinha, they work just fine.

Re: Image Manager missing images

Do you mean the thumbnails do not display in the ImageManager plugin?  If so, check permissions.  I'd also use ImageMagick instead of GD if you are using GD.

Re: Image Manager missing images

Yeah, sorry if I wasn't specific enough. The thumbnails will not display. I checked the permissions and they were all the same for EVERY file in the folder.

Could you explain the difference in GD and ImageMagick? Will that help my thumbnails display?

Re: Image Manager missing images

GD is a graphics library which is built into PHP and which can be used to manipulate images.  ImageMagick is (set of) a command line tool which PHP can call to have it manipulate images.  IMHO ImageMagick is the better system.

You can configure this in plugins/ImageManager/config.inc.php search for "$IMConfig['IMAGE_CLASS']" you can set it to use GD (the default), ImageMagick, or NetPBM.

Re: Image Manager missing images

I installed ImageMagick (and after a long dilly dally, got it working)

however, I still don't have my thumbnails visible sad
Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Re: Image Manager missing images

The folder where the images are,

1. is it writable by the web server
2. is there space on it

Re: Image Manager missing images

If by space you're referring to HD space, then yes, quite plenty.

Just to see if it would help, I did a chmod 777 on the images folder. However, the image manager gave me no results sad

Just the same few random images showed up and everything else were just "broken"

Re: Image Manager missing images

Is there anything I could possibly have configured wrong? However, it's weird because a handful of the images show without a problem.

Re: Image Manager missing images

I can't think of anything else.  Is there any relation between the ones that work?  What is the server environment?

Re: Image Manager missing images

I'm running Red Hat(e) Enterprise Edition 3 -> All the images appear EVERYWHERE ELSE in the site, but except in the image manager. None of the images that show vs. not seem to have any rhyme or reason. the list remains the same as before... neither gif/jpg seem to matter:

image001.jpg
image002.jpg
image003.jpg
*image004.gif
image005.jpg
*image006.gif
*image007.jpg
image008.jpg
*image009.gif
image010.jpg
image011.gif
*image012.gif
image013.jpg
image014.jpg

The ones with a star display...... I don't get it.

Anything else I can offer to help?

Re: Image Manager missing images

Neither do I.  The only thing I can think of, is that there is some error in the images not displaying which is preventing the thumbnail from correctly being generated.

Send me some of the images if you want and I'll see if I can spot anything.
