I'm poking at gallery_remote.php manually and am puzzled by something. I use the login command and get a SUCCESS back: POST /gallery/gallery_remote.php HTTP/1.0 cmd=login&protocal_version=1&uname=xxxxx&password=xxxxxx and then send a fetch-albums command: POST /gallery/gallery_remote.php HTTP/1.0 cmd=fetch-albums&protocal_version=1 which returns SUCCESS but doesn't give me a list of albums. I currently have one album defined in Gallery. Is this a known problem? Am I being stupid about something? Thanks! Steve |

If you're doing this with curl or something, you can't: session information is stored in a cookie, so what happens is the fetch-albums command thinks you're not logged in (my bet).

Ah, I wondered about that. Makes perfect sense.
I was doing this simply by telneting to my http server and constructing the POSTs by hand. This does suggest a minor bug fix, though: if the session information isn't available then I don't think the fetch-albums command should return SUCCESS. Certainly not a big deal when the remote interface is being used properly! :wink:

This is very true. The new version of the interface: gallery_remote2.php will return more accurate error messages.
