Indexhibit Support

justindesilva.com

Previously my indexhibit site was hosted by GoDaddy and recently I've decided to host the site from a home server running ARCH Linux. After resolving some server settings the site is up and running but I'm having some problems with uploading and viewing images on my site. When trying to upload images via indexhibit the images appear to upload and insert into the exhibit however when I visit the page and refresh the cache the images appear in the form of a link.

Note: Images are only appearing in my /srv/http/files folder. Is this the correct destination?

Note: Images are saved out with the .jpeg extension. Is this necessary?

images, dimgs, gimgs, jpeg, ARCH, linux, home, server

-Images should be uploaded using the jpg extension (and not jpeg)
-You should check folder permissions (files, gimgs, dimgs) - are they what they should be?
-Why is your domain name justindesilva.com redirecting me to a servers IP address (71.232.175.38)? This is also an issue you need to sort out with your host.

-Images
For some reason the .jpg extension fails each time while the .jpeg extension uploads to the server but not my site..

-All folder permissions are set to 777

/files/
/files/gimgs/
/files/dimgs/
/ndxzsite/config/
/ndxzsite/cache/

-Domain
I edited the domain A record so instead of directing viewers to the server address they will be redirected to justindesilva.com

What about gifs? pngs?

Are your .jpg's not created properly?

Same error occurs when trying to upload .gif and .png

Error Internal Server Error

I noticed one difference after editing the A record.. images are now being uploaded to /srv/http/files/gimgs whereas before they were only being uploaded to /srv/http/files

/gimgs folder file attributes set to 777

image file attributes are 644.. is this normal?

dropbox.com/s/f5samp1jrlj577q/…

Could someone explain the function of the files sub folders?

/files/ (should any files be uploaded directly to this folder?)
/files/gimgs/ (is g an abbreviation?)
/files/dimgs/ (is d an abbreviation?)

We don't and never have supported home brew hosting (or free hosting for that matter) because there are too many things that need to be known and could go wrong. It's beyond our scope...

Thanks Jeff.. As much as I enjoyed using indexhibit in the past it looks like I'll be building a site from scratch instead.. Do you mind noting your comment on the installation instructions for additional users?
