Exception after updating JAlbum and adding photos.
Posted: 20 Aug 22, 15:44 		 
Hi,
I added new folders and images to an existing album. Since the last update, JAlbum and Photoblogger have also been updated. Where could I start to look for reasons for this error? Image Metadata, filename or content? Folder names, titles and descriptions? General error independent of content?

Stack trace for jAlbum 28.1.5 using skin PhotoBlogger 3.25.1:

Ok, I added a new Toplevel-Folder, and within a new Subfolder, and all new images reside in that subfolder. As soon as I add a second subfolder (even empty), the error disappears. I suspect this might be related to the "linking neighboring folders" feature.

"Link neighboring folders" and "Use background images" are checked, "Skip folder levels" and "Loop folders" are unchecked.

I think getVars should never return "undefined". Perhaps you have added a web location? That is supposed to return the variables object too, but hard to imagine which album object is triggering this behavior.

I don't use web locations. My album looked like this:
Album
+-Top 1
   +-Sub 1a
   +-Sub 1b
+-Top 2
   +-Sub 2a
   +-Sub 2b


I then added this and got the exception:
+-Top 3
   +-Sub 3a
      +-image1.jpg
      +-image2.jpg ...


Then I added
 
+-Top 3
   +- Sub 3b // empty, no image files or subfolders.


and the exception didn't occur, the album was build successfully. When I excluded (not deleted) Sub 3b, the exception occurred again.

This problem isn't critical to me, because I will eventually add "Sub 3b" (and more) anyway, I'll just have to wait to publish until I have the images ready.

You could hide ‘Sub 3b’ so it doesn’t appear in the navigation menus, assuming hiding doesn’t cause the bug too.
Explore view>Select folder>Contextual menu>Hide

FWIW hiding does trigger the bug as well.

Yes, I learned. It seems something has changed in jAlbum, not the skin. Anyway, I'll try to find some workaround.
