Gallery shortcut icons broken

Hello,

I just moved my mojoportal and DB to a new server.

version 2.3.9.4 MSSQL on 2008 R2 x64 IIS7

I'm still working through some of the permission issues on IIS7, but have one item not functioning correctly

http://tk1.dyndns.tv:85/gallery.aspx   See the problem here.

The gallery icons/shortcuts are broken.

 

Also, I had to run the applicaiton pool under local system, to allow deletion of a gallery photo.

The admin security check tool says all is OK...but I still don't have something right.

Does anyone have the permission groups for the web site on IIS7 clearly defined?

Re: Gallery shortcut icons broken

For the folder gallery to work correctly the folders and files should not have any spaces in their names as mentioned in the documentation. It looks like you do have some spaces in the names, I recommend fix those by changing the space to an underscore.

Hope that helps,

Joe

Re: Gallery shortcut icons broken

Hi Joe,

Thanks for the suggestion. I think your on the right track here is some more info.

A  The file structure always worked and was copied from a 2003 server...which is still running correctly in my back office.

B I tried renaming the sample without the space....The icon did not appear, and when you click the link...all the images are broke.
    I renamed it back, the pictures came back. very odd.

C I created a test folder and copied 3 images into it. It does not work at all.
    http://tk1.dyndns.tv:85/gallery.aspx

I'm thinking the path to where the java renders the thumbnails is broke, does not exisits,  or has a permission issue. What does the java rendering need to generate these icons/thumbnails on the fly? What folder should I look for?

Thanks

Re: Gallery shortcut icons broken

I would delete all the files in /Data/systemfiles/FolderGalleryCache folder, they probably have funky permissions from the old server, by deleting them they will be re-created and should then have correct permissions assuming that folder has correct permissions to write files.

Hope that helps,

Joe

Re: Gallery shortcut icons broken

OK...I have more info. I used process monitor to watch the file activity.

1 Any content that was cached in mojoportal\data\systemfiles\foldergallerycache\  was till working.
This is because it was cached at least once on the old server, and came over with the file copy.

2 Any new foldergallery content or rendered images are NOT showing up in the foldergallerycache.

 

I added everyone permissions FULL rights to test, and the rendering and creation of the images worked.

I then removed Everyone, and took off the write deny rights on the IIS group account.

For now, it looks like its fixed.

 

I would sure like to see a detailed list of permissions on IIS7 that plays correctly with Mojo...So I can recheck all my file/folder permissions.
