hi Chris,
share with you...... i installed the gallery2 yesterday.

this is what I did and it was running well....see also readme.html attached

1. download the zip file
2. unzip
3. copy the gallery 2 folder to the server www folder
4. go to the gallery 2 folder /install/
5. creative login.txt and change permissions to chmod 777 to the gallery2
folder
6. create a database, user and password
7. continue on database key in details and admin account details
8. create config.php and copy it to the server gallery2 folder and change
chmod to 777
9. after installation complete and change config.php chmod to 644.
10. Installation complete, now you have to figure out how to use gallery2.

thanks

Well I'm a little farther forward, I have a database for Gallery2 but
I still haven't a clue how to progress.

The gallery2 instructions assume I have downloaded and unpacked the
application somewhere but the yum install has put it all in
/usr/share/gallery.

I've installed gallery2 on a remote server without too much problem
but Fedora/yum seem to have made it more difficult to do it actually
on my own server at home.

Having done the "yum install gallery2" and also having created a
database what am I supposed to do next to make it actually work.
I opened file:///usr/share/gallery2/README.html but the links don't
work because it claims I'm "not accessing this README file through
your webserver.....", I *am*!  I can't access it as an http: because
it's not installed yet in a place where I can access it with http:.

The instructions in the README.html just don't make sense in the yum
install context and the README.fedora is no more help.

Am I simply supposed to move all the files from /usr/share/gallery2 to
somewhere that apache can see them or what?

OK, sorry for getting ratty, I think I've realised what I need to do -
restart apache!  It then reads the gallery2.conf file and will find
the gallery2 code.

Aarrgghh!!
