Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

Hi.

I've loaded IH2 everything seems to be working fine except one thing..After loading a new product, I enter the site to check that its loaded correctly, and I always get this:

Warning: imagedestroy(): supplied argument is not a valid Image resource in /home/name/html/includes/classes/bmz_image_handler.class.php on line 531

The only way I can make it go away is by clicking the refresh button. There must be something missing somewhere, or a file permission I've missed somewhere but I've double checked and they all seem fine..Can someone HELP?

Everything now works!!!! Including all IH.

So why does the script use require_once('bmz_gif_info.class.php');???

No other scripts in includes/classes call a script.

Ive found nothing which is missing, zoom, compression, and watermarks all work.

:D

I'm glad that is fixed. It is odd that you had this problem and I did not.
I'll certainly keep this in mind in case something crops up. I just moved my under construction zcart to another server and it continued to work... so far.
:unsure:

Me too, have no probs at the mo

Where is Tim?

Hi I am having a bizzare problem with imahe handler - If I change the size of the images via zen after loading them up via image handler my zoom no longer works???

Have installed 1.35 the put on sefu (I know if I put this on after image handle weird things have happened) added 2 products and images via image handler - everything was fine wee zooms working and then after changing the small image size (to make my additional pics bigger) the zoom has gone.

Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, clearing cache - turning zoom on & off putting small image size back to what it was before but nothing is working - completely and utterly stuck????

Is there a way to disable the rollover image popup and leave the rest intact? Thx!

Yup - go to images and then turn the small image zoom to no.

HI this does seem to be a bug - I have had the same thing happen on another store (one 1.32 & one 1.35) if you install image handler and then change the small image size in config>image the zoom effect dissappears and does not come back....

No matter what you do - has anyone else had the same issues or managed to solve this?

Cheers totally stuck...

I'd like clarification about the 777 permissions on the bmz_cache directory. Also the files are defaulting 666 - why not 644?

I've tried 755 and it seems to work fine, I've not yet tried changing the 666 > 644. What precautions do people take that use the open 777 permissions, and is there some problem if I continue to use the 755 setting?

Any other thoughts or ideas out there on this topic?

The way image handler works is it needs the same permission set on BMZ cache as your image folder - different permissions allow different levels of access to files I have a linux server and setting a file to 444 normally means it cannot be accessed via a web browser where a file with 777 can be seen and accessed by all.

When files get ftp'd they don't go up with a open permision (i.e777) you as the server adminstrarter have to set these. It protects your files.

If you do a search on goggle for folder permissions you'll find more info.

So basically pop your files up - make your BMZ cache match your image folder permissions and you should be set to go.

If I use IH do I still need to upload image_LRG.jpg?

If so does anyone know how to quickly rename about 2000 jpgs (preserving the orignal name)
Eg I have 05368002560.jpg and I need 05368002560_LRG.jpg Iknow images can be renamed in photoshop batch, but as far as I know it does not preserve the original name.

If not, why does my IH zoom and larger pic pop-up, only display pics the same size as is loaded?
