    Hi, big problem with the slideshow :

    • imagerotator works fine but gets stuck on the black screen with loading animation
    • imagerotator works fine on other sites

    so it's neither a JS nor Flash problem.

    Seems to me, imagerotator doesn't get the gallery info, so I copied the relevant line out of the page source :

    so2991.addVariable("file", "http://******.**/dp/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/nggextractXML.php?gid=2");

    and copied the link into my browser. All I got is an

    Internal Server Error
    The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request

    Gallery works fine in thumbnail mode, lightblock etc. work fine too with nextgen, seems to be this script alone.

    Would be nice if someone had a clue on how to solve this.

    Thx, Christoph

    A solution is hard to find from here, have a look into the server logs if possible or contact your hoster

    Thanks Alex.

    I had set some file attrs to 777 thinking who can do more can do less. Found out in Apaches logs that executing a script from a 777-folder is not a good thing, so I changed that and everything works fine.

    Thx for the good work !
