If you are running a Webserver with Windows and want your users to use the fisheye image gallery, you should follow the following steps so they can directly upload archived images.
Requirements:
Tasks:
Archive upload with RAR or ZIP should work fine now.
For TARed and STUFFed files just follow the above steps and make sure you have a file called "tar.exe" and "unstuffed.exe" in your archiving-folder.
Requirements:
- Webserver running on Windows
- Fisheye Gallery installed
- Archive decompressors as command line version available e.g. (add those you want your users to use)
- Unzip from http://www.info-zip.org/ (Direct Download Link)
- Winrar from http://www.winrar-rog.com/ (Direct Download Link)
Tasks:
- Put the contents of all your decompressor packages into a folder on the webserver, e.g. "c:\webserver\tools\archiving". Make sure e.g. unzip and unrar are in the same folder (different ones work as well but this makes it easier).
- If you have unzip.exe and unzip32.exe in the archiving package, delete unzip.exe and rename unzip32.exe to unzip.exe.
- Go to "Start-Settings-System Settings-System-Advanced-Environment Variables-System Variables" look for "PATH" and edit it. Add the folder from above "c:\webserver\tools\archiving" (without quotes) after a semicolon ";" to the existing paths. Your "PATH" variable should now look like this (or similar): "c:\programme\imagemagick-6.3.1-q8;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\Webserver\tools\archiving".
