Hi, while browsing the gallery, the xml file is suddently emptied. I have one "user" galley where all upload/batch functions are diabled and on "admin" gallery where upload functions are enabled. The xml file get corrupted while browsing images using the "user" version. To restore my images, I click on the "batch build" button.

It is however annoying to discover that the galley is empty all the time.

 

Here is the contents of the "empty" xml:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<xs:schema id="NewDataSet" xmlns="" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:msdata="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-msdata">
  <xs:element name="NewDataSet" msdata:IsDataSet="true" msdata:UseCurrentLocale="true">
    <xs:complexType>
      <xs:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
        <xs:element name="image">
          <xs:complexType>
            <xs:sequence>
              <xs:element name="url" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" />
              <xs:element name="id" msdata:AutoIncrement="true" type="xs:int" />
              <xs:element name="title" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" />
              <xs:element name="description" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" />
              <xs:element name="date" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" />

              <xs:element name="t_width" type="xs:int" minOccurs="0" />
              <xs:element name="t_height" type="xs:int" minOccurs="0" />
            </xs:sequence>
          </xs:complexType>
        </xs:element>
      </xs:choice>
    </xs:complexType>
    <xs:unique name="Constraint1" msdata:PrimaryKey="true">
      <xs:selector xpath=".//image" />
      <xs:field xpath="id" />
    </xs:unique>
  </xs:element>
</xs:schema> 

Hi Adam,

 

I'm sorry to say that I still have problems with the XML datastore. Is it possible to use a SQL database instead of XML files?

Hi,

 

I'm having big problems with the Gallery. For some reason the XML files are recreated at random, but with no images.

Every time this happens I have to batch build the gallery to get the images into the XML file again.

This is a pain in the a**, and I'm getting alot of angry customers each time this happens.

Can you please investigate this problem, as I need a solution asap, either getting dotnetgallery fixed, or finding another gallery control.

 

I've now set Read-only attribute on the gallery below, hoping this will prevent flushing of the xml data. But this solution is preventing new uploads to the galley, and therefore not a lasting solution.
