Geeklog Forums

I was having problems getting images to resize on my geeklog installation that sits on an OSX 10.3.5 box. After downloading netpbm from sourceforge.net/projects/gallery for the OSX operating system as suggested in the comments of config.php, I found that it appeared to be missing a file that geeklog uses (ppmtojpeg)

Anyhow, after downloading netpbm via fink and finding that to work, I did some more digging. It seems that one of the files that WAS in the download from sourceforge (pnmtojpeg) is the same thing. In the fink install, ppmtojpeg is actually just a symbolic link to pnmtojpeg.

SO, either make the link (if you are comfortable in Unix):
ln -s ppmtojpeg pnmtojpeg
OR
copy the file and simply change the name!

I hope this saves someone else from the same frustration...

ppmtojpeg was replaced with pnmtojpeg some time ago. This is a known bug and will be fixed in 1.3.10.
