whatever I enter,it always displayed :Sorry, no image matches. Try refining your search.sometimes it will give me this error:
Zenphoto Error
MySQL Query ( SELECT DISTINCT id,show,title,desc,albumid,filename,location,city,state,country FROM zp_images WHERE ((id=13533) OR (id=13572) OR (id=13665)) ORDER BY date DESC ) failed. Error: Unknown column 'date DESC' in 'order clause'

I have updated to Ver1.2.1
you can test my web : httP://www.av-fans.com

This is very similar to what I am experiencing. In my test installation I have two albums - one with just 5 photos with title and description from the metadata. The other album has 21 photos with all the metadata I could fill in with Lightroom, including keywords.

Both albums appear very nice - no errors. Keywords were imported as tags. I was really happy.

From the main page I use a word from the title of my smaller album (with less metadata) and that album appears in the search results. That's good. But when I search on a word from a title of one of the photos, I get a Sorry, no image matches ....

Yes, on the options tab I have ensured that title, description, and the rest of the fields are to be searched.

The problem gets worse. When I search for the larger album using a word from its title, I do get that album returned, but a ZenPhoto SQL error in pink appears below the thumbnail of the album.

If I go back to my main page and start all over, that is, select the larger album to view, the individual photos appear as expected. Now, if I search on a word in the title of one of the photos, I sometimes get a "sorry, .... But, mostly I get this error:

Zenphoto Error
MySQL Query ( SELECT DISTINCT id,show,title,desc,albumid,filename,location,city,state,country FROM zp_images WHERE ((id=58) OR (id=35) OR (id=37) OR (id=38) OR (id=39) OR (id=40) OR (id=51) OR (id=52) OR (id=53) OR (id=54) OR (id=55) OR (id=56) OR (id=57)) ORDER BY id ) failed. Error: Out of memory; restart server and try again (needed 65528 bytes)

I never get this error on the smaller album with no keywords - I wonder if keywords or tags may be the problem. I'm pretty sure that memory isn't the issue, but I am checking allocation on the apache.

Any ideas? Thank you.
I have version

Oops, I have version zenphoto version 1.2.1 [2635]

I just test ver1.2,that is ok.
but in ver1.21 will cause error.

I think that some functions about search must be changed on Ver1.21,because I ues the same theme when I test 1.2 and 1.21.
but I don't know where changed,

It seems template-functions.php caused.and you?

please fix it ,thank you ...

Could the problem have something to do with the keywords DISTINCT and ORDER BY? Being a newby, I have not yet found the code that forms the SQL queries. When I do, I will delete DISTINCT and see what happens. Will report what I find.

cqboy2003: I ran a search on your site and did not get the failure. Nor can I recreate it on my site. Can you be more specific on what search you were doing?

Hi there,

I just deleted DISTINCT from two queries in class-search.php and all is well - no errors.

I think that this is an issue with mySQL 5.0.1. I have read that 5.1 beta somehow solves the problem. I do not "do" SQL so I can't explain the problem. Is there an SQL guru out there that can diagnose this? This is not only a Zenphoto issue. Other folks are experiencing this, too.

I search the word "AKINA' which is the first album name.but it return :"Sorry, no image matches. Try refining your search."

When I search the word "sexy" which is a part of a album name ,it return Zenphoto Error"Zenphoto Error
MySQL Query ( SELECT DISTINCT id,show,title,desc,albumid,filename,location,city,state,country FROM zp_images WHERE ((id=13533) OR (id=13572) OR (id=13665)) ORDER BY date DESC ) failed. Error: Unknown column 'date DESC' in 'order clause'

sbillard,what word do you search?and it returned right result?

Can you try setting your image sort order to ID instead of date and see if that works? Maybe the problem is that the "date" column is not enclosed in peck marks. If that is the case, then there is a fix in last night's build.

I tried,it always cause error or no result.
It seems not the order to ID or date.

Try the nightly, the search should work now again.

YES, search is ok.but new questions come on
please visit my web http://www.av-fans.com

it display some "notie" :Notice: Undefined

I searched this "notice" and found some way to undisplay it ,
set in php.ini ,for example:error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
;display_startup_errors = Off;register_globals = On

but it don't work.

how to do with it?

There are three errors on your page:

1. Use of undefined constant ture - assumed 'ture' in /home/content/c/q/b/cqboy2003/html/themes/default/index.php on line 48 appears to be a typographical error in your theme. This line is not in the standard default theme index.php, so you should check your modifications.

2. Undefined variable: passwordcheck in /home/content/c/q/b/cqboy2003/html/zp-core/plugins/image_album_statistics.php on line 40 is a NOTICE error that probably should not be being displayed given the reporting of E_ALL ~ E_NOTICE but it is easily corrected by adding $passwordcheck = ''; as the first line of the function.

3. Undefined property: Image::$name in /home/content/c/q/b/cqboy2003/html/zp-core/plugins/image_album_statistics.php on line 141 is more of a problem. The code seems to be trying to get the path of an album but the error messages says it is referencing an image object. There is indeed no name property to images--it is a property of albums. Maybe Acrylian will have some insite here.

well,I modify php.ini
I add "display_errors = Off",then it doesn't display that notice all.

but the popular album's thumb can't display,do you have any idea about it?

visit my web www.av-fans.com to see the error.

I have no idea currently, sorry.

I copy "image_album_statistics.php" of ver1.2 to zp-core/plugin ,it can work.

Of course, hiding the errors does not make them go away.

how about "the popular album's thumb can't display" ？

No idea about that yet.

I have copy the file of Ver1.2 in my web,it's ok.
