Gallery 2 Online

A couple of weeks ago, we launched a Gallery 2 image management solution for our photography / production ministries. (http://gallery.menalto.com) Needless to say they are in love with it, and so am I. We were able to use one of our older servers to host the application. We bumped up the storage with an Areca Raid 6 Storage Controller and 6 500Gb Drives. I was able to run Gallery on Windows by Downloading and installing the Web Developer Server Suite (http://www.devside.net/). This gave me the core of what was needed to install the Gallery 2 programs with out all the usual headaches of configuring the Apache / PHP / MySql core on Windows.

Once that was done, we were only 30 minutes from having a functioning Gallery 2 Site. If you want a sneak peak, check our http://gallery.calvarymelbourne.org.
