I am having similar trouble -- getting a 403 error with any iteration of my URL that I can think of. I love the concept of this plug-in. If I can provide any logging assistance or otherwise help to get this working, please let me know.

Happy New Year!

Heh. I upgraded from 2.1 to 2.2RC1 and the plugin stopped working. It was great while it lasted and I look forward to the update. :)

All of the work that went into making the Aperture plugin is awesome. Gallery would really open up to professional photographers if it had a plugin for Photo Mechanic. Unfortunately I don't know where to ever start making a plugin.

The problem you're running into is totally related to your gallery install. Looks you might be doing some url mapping (url re-writing and the sort) because

http://www.skivvies.com/photos/main.php

which is what the ApertureToGallery plugin uses to upload photos totally barfs.

(Not Found

The requested URL was not found on this server.

Apache Server at skivvies.com)

I'm running the latest 1.5.5 and there is no main.php included in the install. At least not that I can find. Am I missing something super obvious? Probably... any help appreciated.

EDIT!:
I spent all day installing and upgrading to Gallery 2, version 2.1.2, and still seem to be getting a 500 error. Will try activating the logs and see if I can get more info. Ignore until then =]

EDIT 2:
I tried removing .htaccess, still the same 500 error. I can access main.php fine. Gallery Remote has no problem logging in and uploading either. Is there any specific place to look for the error log after you've activated it? Here's what I get on the console:

Don't know if this helps at all, but these are some errors I found in my log.
" 2007-02-19 13:02:58.010 Aperture[969] INFO: - (NSURL *)requestURL - request url http://localhost/~web/gallery2/main.php?g2_controller=remote:GalleryRemote&g2_form[cmd]=new-album

"g2_form[protocol_version]" = "2.3";
"g2_form[set_albumName]" = 7;
} "

The generated error page: http://sporknet.game-server.cc/~web/Galleryerror.html

Hope that helps a bit.

Works fine for me. You are hitting http://www.apertureplugins.com/ right?

EDIT: The download works. Plugin, not so much.

An FYI for those having problems with the 503 error.

After I updated gallery to 2.2.1, the plugin has started working for me. Before you all rush to update to 2.2.1, though, it is possible that a server hardware change also occured for me at that time, and maybe the new server hardware has settings that now allow the plugin to work.

A quick hack to repair the Aperture export plugin:

edit modules/remote/GalleryRemote.inc

change

if (strstr($httpUserAgent, 'Gallery Remote') === false
&& strstr($httpUserAgent, 'RPT-HTTPClient') === false
&& strstr($httpUserAgent, 'iPhotoToGallery') === false) {
/* Newer GalleryRemote versions handle auth tokens */

to

if (strstr($httpUserAgent, 'Gallery Remote') === false
&& strstr($httpUserAgent, 'RPT-HTTPClient') === false
&& strstr($httpUserAgent, 'CFNetwork') === false
&& strstr($httpUserAgent, 'iPhotoToGallery') === false) {
/* Newer GalleryRemote versions handle auth tokens */

and the plugin will work again.

This forces g2 into the old mode. CFNetwork is the user-agent the plugin sends.

Regards

Flo

The plugin doesn't work anymore, and I can't find the code you've mentioned, SuperFloh. There is no strings like that anywhere in the file you mentioned.

YES! YES! YES! *Happy Dance*

Just found the new version on Macupdate.com and everything works again. Well, all the images (read = 1) I uploaded so far. Thanks and I will be more careful updating in the future.

Ebby - glad to hear it's working out well for you :-).

I just wanted to take a moment and point out that there is now an ApertureToGallery FAQ available at

http://www.ubermind.com/products/aperturetogallery-faq.php

that contains answers / solutions to commonly asked questions /problems relating to the plug-in.

There is now an announcement mailing list that you can subscribe to to be notified everytime there is a new release of the plug-in. You can subscribe to this mailing list from the following page:

http://www.ubermind.com/products/aperturetogallery.php

Finally, users that want to see the plug-in in action without installing it (or don't have Aperture or Gallery installed) a screencast for your viewing pleasure is available at

http://www.ubermind.com/assets/video/atg_screencast.mov

Enjoy :-)

And as usual, please don't hesitate to send your comments, suggestions, and feedback to us. It will all go a long ways in improving the quality of this product.

thanks.

schmenzer: Did you ever figure out the reason for the "406: unacceptable" error?? I am getting the same and no amount of coaxing helps.

PS: my console.app output is listed below:

looks like I figured out the solution to the "406" error.
I added the "SecFilterEngine Off" command to my sites .htaccess file.

Same problem here.

In the FAQ for Aperture-to-Gallery it says:

Quote:
I am receiving "Gallery Response Error: could not parse response." or "HTTP Error 500: internal server error." while using the plug-in…
Please ensure that you have enabled the "Remote" and "Upload" modules in the Gallery administration section so that the plug-in can properly communicate with your Gallery installation.

Does anyone know how to enable these modules? I see nothing at all in my Gallery administration page like this. Are "Plug-Ins" the same things as "modules?" I do see those, but the relevant controls don't appear, in any case.

I'd be grateful for any help!

Khans:

Are you out there? I'm having a problem with the plug-in, but it worked so well for a while! Error 500: Internal Server Error. All Gallery plug-ins are running normally, including Upload and Remote. Any ideas?

Best,

Larry

In my new install, the gallery remote plugin is not installed by default. I had the same problem until I installed the remote plugin.

In case anyone's wondering, this plugin seems to be working just fine for me with the new Aperture 3.

THANKS KHANS!!!

Are there any plans to make the plug-in 64-bit to make the most of Aperture 3?

Graham.

I have the error 403 and I cannot figure it out. I have seen posts on this matter, but no answers. I can log into the regular website with my user name and password, and I am using the URL http://www.christophergriggs.com/gallery2, which is my Gallery URL. However, the plugin still fails with an error 403. I am not certain what to do.

I've poked around, and I have tried many suggestions, none of the suggestions have worked. However, I hadn't used the javascript remote version. When I am logged into the Gallery, and choose 'Add Items'. There is an option for Remote. That version does log in, and has an Aperture button for import. Although the plug-in doesn't work in Aperture, this remote does work, and still gets some of the meta data, for the title. I am going to have to figure out how to get the captions, and version names, etc. to go where I want them. If anybody knows, that would be a great help as well. Hopefully, I will find some information that can tell me how to make the Aperture plug-in work. I do have Aperture 3. The plug-in had been working, but just stopped all of the sudden, and I don't know why. I have re-installed Aperture, and I have re-installed the plug-in. No luck. Even after deleting everything and resetting all of the information. So, maybe there is an incompatibility with Aperture 3.
