Description of problem:
One of my favorite applications is gphoto. I use it to create web archives
of my digital photos. So today (just back from Mexico City, MX) I am trying
to create an archive of the photos I took at Teotihuacan and I discover
that gphoto no longer works... it's ability to create html on the fly
appears to be completely broken and I am wondering if anyone knows what the
fix is? I get html code which consists of nothing more than empty tags
defining a table.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select a photo directory.
2. Select all photos.
3. Select export.
4. Choose an output directory and a style.
5. Export.
6. No worky, worky... just blank files.

Actual Results:  This is the code which appears in the index file for the
export:

<table border=0><tr>
<td>
</td>
<td>
</td>
<td>
</td>
<td>
</td>
<td>
</td>
</tr><tr>
<td>
</td>
<td>
</td>
<td>
</td>
<td>
</td>
<td>
</td>
</tr><tr>
<td>
</td>
<td>
</td>
<td>
</td>
<td>
</td>
</tr></table>

Expected Results:  The index file should provide a master html index to all
of the pictures using thumbnails.

Additional info:

I tried to back up to the gphoto version included with 7.1 (installed on
roswell1 and roswell2 on two different machines) and that did not work
either.

I just tried this, and it works with gphoto-0.4.3-13.  I get output like:

[...]
<table>
<tr><td><a href="picture-001.html"><img alt="001" src="thumbnail-001.jpg" 
border="1"></a></td></tr>
<tr><td>Thumbnail 001</td></tr>
<tr><td>thumbnail-001.jpg</td></tr>
</table>
[...]

This is with the 'Default' style.

Are there any particular settings that you are seeing this with?  Is there 
anything interesting in your ~/.xsession-errors file?

No feedback; closing.

Comment 3 Chuck Mead 2001-09-27 16:03:13 UTC

this should be closed I guess... the problem was a simple case of operator head space gap and timing!
