Something Not About Power!

Gallery 2.0

Thought we’d break up the monotony and throw up a little post about something positive!

We’ve just added a “One-Click Install” of the new Gallery 2.0, the MOST popular open-source website photo gallery software THERE IS!

Give it a try at our “Goodies > One-Click Installs” area right now!

(Keep in mind it’s a big install so it’ll probably take close to the full 10 minutes before you receive your confirmation email!)

    If I’ve already installed Gallery 1 manually, to upgrade I’d have to manually upgrade as well, won’t I?

    Hm. I’ll have to look into if I can do the one click of Gallery 2 and figure out how to import from my manual Gallery 1 install.

    Anyone do that before?

  2. Jeff Says:

    aw, I already installed it manually. Even that was pretty simple, keep up the good work!

  3. Colleen Says:

    Thanks for another great addition to your services guys! :)

    Man, you guys Effin rock!!!!

    Best host ever! Minus, that lil’ foobar but hey it happens and I’m sure I could speak for most when I say that your stellar support and forward thinking makes you guys the best around.

    1-click installs are a godsend but you guys should REALLY work on getting AWSTATS to be 1-click. Man that would be awesome.

  5. Danny Says:

    w00t. I saw this on slashdot and wanted to run it on my site. I’ll give the one click install a try now :)

  6. Fused Says:

    Nice!

    Nothing better than going to the gallery site to grab the binary and seeing this news on their front page (from a forum post).

  7. Jennifer Says:

    Crap, and I just installed it not three days ago! :/ But I still have some bugs.

  8. Christian Mohn Says:

    Jason: Gallery 2 has a Gallery 1 -> Gallery 2 migration module. You point that to the albums directory of your Gallery 1 install, and it migrates it for you.

    Dreamhost One Click Install Gallery2

    I have been looking for a better way to integrate pictures into this blog. I ended up choosing Gallery 2.0. Now the Dreamhost folk have made it easier by creating a one click install cript.

    One-click Gallery 2 install on Dreamhost? Unpossible!

    The guys over at Dreamhost are now offering a one-click install of Gallery 2. Way to go!
    I don’t know if they offer a one-click install of Wordpress, but I’m betting they do. The next logical step would be to install WPG2 as well, if the customer h…

    Might want to remove it from suggestions and add it to the implemented suggestion.

    One more thing, need to give a fellow DreamHoster a plug. :-)

    Seriously, this has been something that I have been gearing up for, for a long long time, I just never got around to narrowing down what I was going to use on my site etc.

    With the easy instal it’s a cinch, that I will be using this.

    thanks again for the great work!!

    Wade -out.

  19. rito Says:

    I just used the one-click-install for gallery2 and it worked like a dream :) – importing pics from my previously installed gallery1 worked without any problems.
    Thanks guys!

  20. noa Says:

    I need to restart my gallery so this will be a big help!

  21. mandrl Says:

    More goodies! I will have to install this on another server, but I quess it’s handy here too.

    Thanks!

    Dear Happy DreamHost Installer Robot:

    Bad Robot, Bad, Bad, Go Lay Down!

    The advice from the Installer Robot is just wrong on step four.

    Quote from the email with the subject:
    >>[mydreamhostaccount ###6568] Success installing Gallery on your site!

  23. dan.hunt Says:

    Step 4: CHANGE the Directory path to be:
    /home/myloginNAMEg2data
    Make a valid directory path adding the “/”
    where it needs to be /home/myloginNAME/g2data

  24. Erik Says:

    i’ve been running Gallery v1 for a long time and been running Gallery2 since RC1 … i’ve done manual install though, since i’ve had ot upgrade. But great addon for ppl that have never heard of it! Keep up the great work.

  25. Rob Says:

    What makes life even better, is that you can embed gallery2 into WordPress. It’s almost the bees knees. You can preview what it would looks like at “cucucachoo.net/wp/wp-gallery2.php”.

    Of course this is still in progress so it could look like poop. But it will give a good example of Gallery2 embedded into WordPress.

    Thanks
    Crazy Dreamhost Team! you guys ROCK!

  26. ozgreg Says:

    For all of you using Wordpress and Gallery2, then head over to the http://wpg2.ozgreg.com site and pick up the WPG2 plugin that bridges the gap between the two products so you can blog and have photos all at the same time.

    Check out http://wpg2.ozgreg.com for more info..

  27. sandman Says:

    It installed fine but doesn’t create thumbnails. I’ve been using Gallery 1 for years and have never had problems before. Any ideas?

    [...] Cool things: Galley via One-Click at Dreamhost! Yay! And also, I’ve finally posted details about Reliquary’s three! upcoming shows. [...]

  29. jared l. Says:

    Thanks for the cool one click installation. However, I’ve a mighty suggestion if it’s possilbe for Dreamhost to offer Awstats instead of Analog, coz I’m really tired of Analog. Cheers!

  30. G Vigneault Says:

    The choice of the language does not function at the time of the installation, Gallery remains in English. Same thing once installed

  32. Flugreise Sivas Says:

    i googled for something completely different, but found your page… and have to say thanks. i like your site.

  33. Greg Takacs Says:

    Dreamhost will have to enable all locales for Gallery to be truly multilingual. Right now it only works in English, which is a shame.

    For more information on the matter read the Gallery2 FAQ

    I submitted a support ticket for it, let’s hope it gets taken care of.

  34. Dmitro Says:

    Will it be in others languages?

  35. Unofficial DreamHost Blog » Blog Archive » DreamHost Year in Review Says:

    [...] One-Click Installs The number of One-Click Installs has also increased significantly over the year. Late last year DreamHost introduced WordPress as a One-Click Install. This year they’ve added phpBB 2, OSCommerce, MediaWiki Wiki, Joomla (Mambo) CMS, Gallery 2.0, WebCalendar and WordPress 2.0. [...]

    Toen I eerst daarin geinteresseerd werd, er zo te leren veel waren. Meer het weet ik, de meer vragen die ik heb gehad.

    You have really done a good job on this. Keep it up!
