Lets play a game: what do you think this means ?

Code:

$conf['show_exif'] = false;
$conf['use_exif'] = false;

well it means DO NOT show EXIF and DO NOT use EXIF

so yeah you removed the admin warnings by telling Piwigo you don't want to use EXIF....

----

if you want to use EXIF you must enable the PHP EXIF module, or ask your host to do so (and of course remove this $conf)

ok, so i backed out the above code and now i get the following 2 anamolies errors (and no exif on the photos):
$conf['show_exif'] value is incorrect because exif are not supported     $conf['show_exif'] must be set to false in your local/config/config.inc.php file
Go to the forum or the wiki for more information

$conf['use_exif'] value is incorrect because exif are not supported     $conf['use_exif'] must be set to false in your local/config/config.inc.php file
Go to the forum or the wiki for more information

on my old gallery3 installation, exif worked just fine and displayed the data.  where do i check next?

here is the complete text of my local config file:

<?php

/* The file does not exist until some information is entered 
below. Once information is entered and saved, the file will be created. */

$conf['show_exif'] = true;
$conf['use_exif'] = true;    

$conf['show_exif_fields'] = array(
  'Model',
  'DateTimeOriginal',
  'FNumber',
  //  'ExposureBiasValue',
  'ExposureTime',
  // 'Flash',
  'ISOSpeedRatings',
  // 'UndefinedTag:0xA434',
  // 'FocalLength',
  //'FocalLengthIn35mmFilm',
  //'SubjectDistance',
  //'WhiteBalance',
  //'ExposureMode',
  //'MeteringMode',
  //'ExposureProgram',
  //'LightSource',
  //'Contrast',
  //'Saturation',
  //'Sharpness',
  //'PropertyTagArtist',
  //'Copyright',
  //'Artist',
  );

I guess Gallery uses an external library, Piwigo uses PHP EXIF module

@Bigste this is about IPTC...
