Sorry, but you are not allowed to access the gallery   is my error message on the gallery page. Take your time and rest some Nao I have no problem waiting a bit longer.
I really (really!) never saw that error message. I made a test account and gave it the same rights (i.e. main Tester group.)
I did have the ability, under that account, to access the album and the item page itself. I couldn't, though, do anything else than stare at the icon, because it didn't offer a download link.

This is fixed, so you guys should all be able to download now.

Then why can't i access it then?
Because you never posted a request on the relevant topic...?

I said it earlier: I'll give access to anyone with a bit of motivation. The only default pass is given to Wedgeward and Consultants. Because they have SVN access anyway... Friends are our friends, who have access to more private boards, but it doesn't mean they want to test the thing. Anyway -- just post a request! It's not that hard ;)

Further to my host still having MYSQL 5.0.9 It seems to have worked on him. He is upgrading one of his newest servers within the next few days and will move my account over for free :cool:

So not long and my test site will be live, and not on Wamp :eheh:

Farjo have fun and tell us what you think ;)
Well it's really rather good 8-) The admin panel is so much better, and the search facility has worked really well for me. I like the "New to Wedge?" bit too.

And there are so many new features, I've been looking for three days and feel like I've hardly tested anything.

Many congratulations and well done :cool:

It's still sad that many hosts won't update to a more recent MySQL version... I'm mostly flabbergasted by the 1and1 thingy. I mean, they're a popular host. To think that they're not up to date..?!

I'm actually looking through the code right now and trying to find what exactly in Wedge requires MySQL 5.1...
Alternatively, you can force Wedge to accept v5.0 by editing install.php, but it'll crash everytime it finds a 5.1+ query...

Maybe they're scared of what might happen if they break people's code, that they'll lose customers, which means less profit? I left precisely because they refused to upgrade.

Nao: I don't recall anything that is specifically 5.1. There *are* things that require 5.0.3 or higher. That I know for certain. But I can't immediately think of anything that's 5.1 or higher, I think we just said, instead of messing about with '5.0.3 or higher' we might as well go 5.1, but I can't remember.

I don't know.

Well, Wedge started requiring MySQL 5.1 in August 2011 so that was long ago, but I didn't specify why. I had a quick look through the MySQL changelog, and I'm not sure we've been using any of these new features..? Maybe there are important undocumented changes, I don't know, but none of the main stuff means anything to me. I'd say it's possible we can downgrade the requirements to just 5.0...

What do you think?

Pete? Do you remember where we discussed this on the forum..?

Okay, time for bed... Bye!

Alpha 2 is OUT!

I just figured that a week had passed, and it would be best to have everyone test using the latest commit available...
So, this alpha includes the last ~10 commits sent to the server.

You haven't been chosen as a beta tester. You're gonna have to wait till the public alpha is released.
or let me quote what the developer said to someone else like you:

Get to posting a bit more, be more enthusiastic, then I'll consider it. Otherwise, please wait for the public alpha :) Which shouldn't take too long to come out... Hopefully.

I would note that the clue is in the question... or in this case the topic title - 'Wedge private alpha'...
