Howdy, I am having the same issue as many others - and I am beginning to think that the issue might be security oriented... I have several websites on one server. One site allows Gallery Remote to connect fine, the other site gives me the 'server contacted, but gallery not found...' error. I have used Beyond Compare (scootersoftware) to compare the directories/folders between the two sites - and they are identical. The tool doesn't compare priviledges - so it might wind down to a privs/chmod issue. Can someone provide what special privs are supposed to be applied to specific folders? If anyone else has resolved the issue - PLEASE POST. I am willing to do the programming work to resolve the issue in Gallery Remote - where is the source kept? I need to determine what triggers the error - before I can resolve it. Thanks for your time! Daniel Bohner http://www.existinglight.net |

not sure about fixing the error, but the source can be viewed here:
<!-- BBCode Start --><A HREF="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gallery/gallery_remote/" TARGET="_blank">http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gallery/gallery_remote/</A><!-- BBCode End -->
or downloaded using instructions at bottom of page here:
<!-- BBCode Start --><A HREF="http://jpmullan.com/galleryupdates/" TARGET="_blank">http://jpmullan.com/galleryupdates/</A><!-- BBCode End -->
be sure to replace the module name "gallery" with "gallery_remote"
ie with unix, i believe the second command should be:
<!-- BBCode Start --><TABLE BORDER=0 ALIGN=CENTER WIDTH=85%><TR><TD><font class="pn-sub">Code:</font><HR></TD></TR><TR><TD><FONT class="pn-sub"><PRE> cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.Gallery.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gallery checkout gallery_remote </TD></TR></TABLE><!-- BBCode End -->
and the third(although I'm not sure about this one because I don;t use unix often):
<!-- BBCode Start --><TABLE BORDER=0 ALIGN=CENTER WIDTH=85%><TR><TD><font class="pn-sub">Code:</font><HR></TD></TR><TR><TD><FONT class="pn-sub"><PRE> cd gallery_remote </TD></TR></TABLE><!-- BBCode End -->
for wincvs, using a different module is obvious when looking at the instructions

Within the GalleryComm2.java code I find the following:
/**
* POSTSs a request to the Gallery server with the given form data. If data is
* not null, a multipart MIME post is performed.
*/
Properties requestResponse( NVPair form_data[], byte[] data) throws GR2Exception, ModuleException, IOException {
// assemble the URL
URL galUrl = g.getUrl();
String urlPath = galUrl.getFile();
urlPath = urlPath + ( (urlPath.endsWith( "/" )) ? SCRIPT_NAME : "/" + SCRIPT_NAME );Log.log(Log.TRACE, MODULE, "Url: " + urlPath );
// create a connection
HTTPConnection mConnection = new HTTPConnection( galUrl );
HTTPResponse rsp = null;
// post multipart if there is data
if ( data == null ) {
rsp = mConnection.Post(urlPath, form_data);
} else {
rsp = mConnection.Post(urlPath, data, form_data);
}
// handle 30x redirects
if (rsp.getStatusCode() >= 300 && rsp.getStatusCode() < 400) {
// retry, the library will have fixed the URL
status(su, "Received redirect, following...");
if ( data == null ) {
rsp = mConnection.Post(urlPath, form_data);
} else {
rsp = mConnection.Post(urlPath, data, form_data);
}
}
// handle response
if (rsp.getStatusCode() >= 300) {
throw new GR2Exception( "HTTP POST failed (HTTP " + rsp.getStatusCode() + " " + rsp.getReasonLine() + ")");
} else {
// load response
String response = new String(rsp.getData()).trim();
Log.log(Log.TRACE, MODULE, response);
// validate response
if ( response.startsWith( PROTOCOL_MAGIC ) ) {
Properties p = new Properties();
p.load( new StringBufferInputStream( response ) );
return p;
} else {
throw new GR2Exception("Server contacted, but Gallery not found at this URL (" + galUrl.toString() + ")");
}
}
}
Notice the last part... If response.startsWith (Protocol_Magic)... I haven't been able to define where the response gets set, within gallery.
Any of the GR Developers wanna shed light?

I am using the XOOPS CMS:
I found where you can turn up the debug log for Gallery Remote (default.properties)... When I set it to 3 (max) I find that the I get redirected to the Not Authorized page...
Here's what you can do to replicate what happens with Gallery's Login..
1) login to Xoops.
2) url = http://yourdomain/modules/xoopsgallery/gallery_remote2.php?cmd=login&uname=Username&password=Password&protocol_version=2.0
This will give you back the parameters that Gallery is expecting.
3) log out of Xoops.
4) url = http://yourdomain/modules/xoopsgallery/gallery_remote2.php?cmd=login&uname=Username&password=Password&protocol_version=2.0
Now you get redirected - because you don't have authority to connect...
Now the question - how can Gallery Remote get the initial authorization to the gallery? Still looking into this - finding it very painful..
Any assistance is very helpfull!

change line 29 and 30 in gallery_remote2.php into
require("init.php");
require("classes/remote/GalleryRemoteProperties.php");
that worked for me

Turmkater,
Am I good to assume that you are using Xoops?

I'm not sure if this thread is dealing with the same kind of error as this one, but you may be interested in the what we resolved there...
