We have been using the gallery for years now, and recently added an album that we turned around and deleted.  During the delete it timed out.  Well now we cannot see any of our albums.  Does anyone know what we need to do to correct this?

Here's the error we get in the log.

Any help or being directed to someone that can help would be great.  Thanks..  Note I was in as host when I get this error.  But no one gets the galleries right now.

We have gallery version 3.01.12.  We didn't do an thing before it happened, no installs or updates, no changes to permissions, etc.  This site has been stable for years now.  May have been something on one of the servers. 

We had them restore it to a day back and it's working fine now.  Odd enough. 

We are leaning towards upgrading to DNN4.8 and reinstall a newer gallery and go from there.  Do you think that would be the more stable or reliable choice? 

Thanks for any help.

Matthias,

I fully understand the issues surrounding release dates, as well as volunteer schedules workloads and such.  However, can you provide some idea of the projected release schedule for the Gallery Module ... many of us have been very patient.

Thanks for all of the hard work

Hans
