I copied in the config.php from the previously working install... The only difference here is that the geeklog install has been copied over with the released version and the database has been wiped clean and started over again from fresh.

Ok then I figured out that the reason I wasn't seeing the install link was because I was missing a setting in my main geeklog config file. I'd forgotten to tell it that I use a directory called html and not public_html. So once I fixed that I started getting the link. Now I have the link but when I click on it I'm taken to a page with absoutely nothing in it. Its 100% empty there isn't even anything in the source.. Seems that after it loads this blank page it completely breaks the geeklog installation.

Sorry i edited the last comment to say that after this blank page is loaded that it completely hoses the geeklog install so that the main page loads as an empty page as well. There appears to be a bunch of stuff in the error directory. For some reason there are a ton of .var files in there...

Like HTTP_BAD_GATEWAY.html.var
and HTTP_BAD_REQUEST.html.var:

That sounds like a server problem to me. Your best bet would be to ask Andy as its his plugin.

you can try uninstalling it directly by going to the url /admin/plugins/GL_Gallery2/install.php?action=uninstall

I've never had it hose a gl installation, and I've set it up on freebsd, Suse, win2k3, with all flavors of gl from 1.3.9 to 1.4.0

Thing that bugs me is it was doing this before and I don't remember what the hell I was doing wrong. I think that the only thing I'd done wrong was the config on the folders... Now if I delete the database and then let the geeklog install recreate it all is happy again. So its got to be a problem in the database for whatever reason. I just wish I could remember how I fixed this last time.

We had a db problem conflicts with other older plugins while testing. the workaround was: Quote from Andy:
I have a workaround for you to try. In
system/lib-database.php, change the DB_insertId() function around line
411 to be this:

function DB_insertId($link_identifier = '')
{
$result = DB_query( "SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID() AS id" );

return( DB_result( $result, 0, 'id' ) );

// global $_DB;

// return $_DB->dbInsertId($link_identifier);
}

Then try it. While this may address the symptoms, it _might_ not be
addressing the problem. So Caveat Emptor!

My plugins do not use DB_insertId() - I switched to using
LAST_INSERT_ID() directly

Seems like I'm having a sync problem between my G2 install and GL_Gallery... Hrm.... Do you think that that work around applies here?

Seems you are using the new version of gallery2 2.1rc1
Several api changes render all the bridges useless.

This version of GL_Gallery2 works with the prevous stable versions of gallery2.

2.1 has some great new features, and I am looking forward to the newer version also.
The new version of a bridge for geeklog is in the works.

Am I using an unsupported version? Cause I really did have this version of gallery2 working with geeklog 1.4.0rc2. The only difference now is that I've deleted the database and copied the released 1.4.0 files over the old 1.4.0rc2 files. I'd really like to get something going as at the moment my page is pretty much 100% down. The other thing that makes me wonder is why when I do a database backup in the tool that it doesn't generate a .sql file that has anywhere near enough data to recreate the site's database.

Just did a check on my system and the gallery2 install that I have running is 2.0.2-full.

2.0.2 is a supported version.
The only other thing I can think of, is that GL_Gallery2 maps the current user(you) as admin for gallery. If you are using the same name as you did when you setup gallery, you will get a collision.
I usually setup gallery as galleryadmin, then when I install GL_Gallery2 I'm logged in as suprsidr.

So maybe try creating another gl user with admin privis, and try installing the plugin that way.

The thing that makes me wonder though is that I'm installing the plugin as the standard default "Admin" and there is no user even called anything close to that in the gallery2 installation. I'd really like to not have to screw up the current gallery... I was hoping I could recreate gallery users and and then manually figure out how to link them back up... But heck if I can't get it installed then I've got bigger fish to fry...

BTW I really do appreciate the help!

I was just parousing Gallery's forums with the search for ERROR_STORAGE_FAILURE and found many posts similar to yours.
I'm no longer sure its a GL_Gallery2 failure.

There were several that suggested running the maintainence functions within gallery to clear the cache and so on.

Take a look there.

Cuz I'm stumped at this point.
