Multiple Add broke Phoca Gallery

I have 273 images I wanted to upload and categorize within the same tag. I uploaded them via FTP into the images/phocagallery/tagname directory. Then I went into Components > Phoca Gallery > Images and clicked "Multiple Add". I clicked on the tagname folder on the right, and then selected all images present. I picked the tag I wanted within the Category dropdown and clicked save. The page then immediately refreshed with a "Looks like there's a problem with this site" page. Now any time I try to open Components > Phoca Gallery > Images I get the same error page. On our website I can see 273 "images" within that category, but only the first one has a thumbnail and works. All the rest show a placeholder thumbnail and no image when you click on them.

It's been like this for a few minutes now, with no changes. Did I break Phoca Gallery trying to categorize too many images at once? Is there a way I can troubleshoot this?

Hi,
Is there a way I can troubleshoot this?
Yes, set the ‘Pagination Thumbnail Generation’ parameter to ‘Yes’ in the Phoca Gallery options and check whether the second image (and, of course, all subsequent ones) meets the requirements (size, dimensions, format, etc.).
You should also check whether the file names or directory names contain special characters or spaces. You should remove these. See: https://www.phoca.cz/documentation/77-p ... ing-images


Kind regards,
