New Module: Uploadify

This works perfect as is! Having this module instead of the Java Applet is great. Can upload large media files now with no problem. Don't have to deal with Java Applet limitation. The file upload feedback is cool too. Thanks for putting the work in suprsidr. I'll be testing it more throughout the week and will report back with any issues or ideas on improving.

So when you click "Add Items" from an album you don't get the tabs: "From Web Browser", "From Local Server", "Upload Applet", and "Uploadify"?

Hi. Very cool uploader. Unfortunately Im having a problem with it. It installs and starts fine. I can choose files and it uploads. As soon as it completes the upload I get an HTTP Error Undefined? And of cause nothing is uploaded? Help!

Hey suprsidr! I meant to respond. I finally used this module. It's working great for me!

what's the requirement? Do you need to do something to make it able to be translatable? There are lots of community modules that have English as the only option.

I was able to upload 10 2+MB images with it. Something I could only do with the "From Local Server" method because of upload size limits on my host. It's going to become my preferred method of uploading.

Suprsidr may have some other suggestions, but make sure everyone is using the latest version of Flash. Double check it, triple check if you have to.

Hey look what happens while I sleep ;)

Usually REQUEST_FORGED means no authToken, but we have that. We also have userId 5 which is guest.
I'll assume you're not trying to upload as guest - so I'm thinking gallery is not gleaming the correct user from the session.

Let's try adding $user = $gallery->getActiveUser();
to Uploadify.inc ~line 72 just before GalleryCoreApi::assertHasItemPermission

This is very difficult to troubleshoot as it works for me in all browsers on: win7x64, win7x32, winXPx32 and Mac OSX10.6
So I'm adding some debug:
Uploadify.inc function handleRequest line ~66 immediately after global $gallery;

        $session =& $gallery->getSession();
        
        $ret = GalleryController::assertIsGenuineRequest();
        if ($ret) {
            $gallery->debug('Uploadify User Agent: '  . GalleryUtilities::getServerVar('HTTP_USER_AGENT'));
            $user = $gallery->getActiveUser();
            if (isset($user)) {
                $gallery->debug('Uploadify User: ', $user->getuserName());
            } else {
                $gallery->debug('Uploadify User: ', 'error getting user');
            }
            return array($ret, null);
        }

and set debug to logged in gallery2/config.php - you must provide a full system path to a writable txt file ie.
$gallery->setDebug('logged');
$gallery->setDebugLogFile('/path/to/writeable/error.log');

I added those debugging lines in uploadify.inc, but nothing showed in the debug file. It seems like the uploadify handleRequest is not called yet.

So I copied those lines in main.php at line 246 (right after the assertIsGenuine check).

The debugging results (both on failed and successful upload):

Failed Upload:

*I modified the debugging lines to print the ret value, and still print the lines even if the ret is null, the successful upload are showing doubles because they are the lines from main.php and uploadify.inc

Seems like the failed upload has no session ID which explain the ERROR_REQUEST_FORGED.

Another thing I can add: the failure seems dependant to the connection, I have no problem with my home connection using 4 different machines, all can upload fine. In my friend connection, she can't upload at all (both using safari and firefox). In my office connection, I can upload in Chrome, but not in firefox (because firefox is using different proxy, but when I change to use the same as chrome, I can upload fine with firefox). All machines can upload fine with web browser and upload applet.

edit:
another thing to add that maybe helpful to you.

In the log file, the last part that the session ID still showing on the failed Upload is in these lines :

Do you happen to be using HTTPS (ssl)? If so, do you happen to be using a self-signed cert?

nope, normal http.

Sorry no configuration options yet
gallery2/modules/uploadify/Uploadify.inc line ~168 sets the filename for those:
$title = $summary = $description = isset($file['name']) ? basename($file['name']) : NULL;

I need to add the same "Set item titles from" section to the form.

Yeah, I'm seeing similar results on both my shared host and my VPS. I don't know what else to set or check in PHP or Apache, but it appears I can only get 2 simultaneous uploads at a time. It doesn't appear to be a browser limitation as far as I can tell.

Nice! Downloading now!

Which browser/OS?

I spent all day figuring out that bit of trickery.
jQuery thinks a checkbox is "on" no matter which state the checked is in. - Never imagined jQuery was wrong - Chased that around all day.

FYI - Dan(neven) is making better looking buttons so that update should come soon.

FlashYourWeb and Your Gallery with The E2 XML Media Player for Gallery2

Ok, fixed that... and implemented Dan's new buttons - Thanks Dan

get the latest - no version bump.

Awesome work on this mate. Looks like I will dump the "web browser" option for this.

Hi,
I was hoping to be one of the lucky ones; sadly not.
I get a 'HTTP: upload failed' on every attempt.

No, that didn't do it - any other ideas?

Thanks for the help,

any chance of making this module showing thumbnails ? like the flash uploader from gallery3 ?

trying to test this, but the Browse button doesn't work at all.
using PHP 5.2.13 and mySQL 5.0.x on a G2.3.1 multisite - all I see is a stalled request to the codebase, nothing happens. no errors on my Apache logs.
I have Firefox 3.6.6 and Flash 10.1 installed on OSX 10.4

the Gallery 3 flash uploader works fine though.

please advise, thank you!

thanks for the link! I dumped the crossdomain.xml file on botn parent directories as instructed.

I don't see any attempts to fetch crossdomain.xml on my Apache logs files for both the subdomain where the G2 site is running, and the subdomain the G2 codebase is running.

still, the Browse button doesn't invoke a popup dialog box.
please advise, thanks!

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

edited jquery.uploadify.v2.1.0.min.js and changed "scriptAccess:"always"

now the dialog box pops out, but Upload doesn't work. and Cancel or Clear buttons don't do anything.

it looks like the flash portion isn't loaded at all. Normally, i could access a popup dialog box with a link to "Adobe Flash", but all I see is View Source which means, something is wrong, the flash script isn't being loaded correctly in my setup.

please advice, thank you!

i have Firebug installed, but I don't know where to look for errors and such, any pointers will be much appreciated, thanks!

basically, I have a G2.3.1 codebase, stock theme (non modified) and installed the Uploadify plugin through Site Admin
i go into Add Items > Uploadify (tab)
i modified jquery.uploadify.v2.1.0.min.js to make the Browse button work, but the items are not being uploaded when i hit Upload, nor is there a progress bar. I can't also remove the queued items from the listing by clicking on the X buttons, the same with Clear, it doesn't do anything. I would have to refresh the page F5 to clear it all out.

that's a YAHOO error.
Uploadify does not use YAHOO.

Deactivate uploadify and see if the YAHOO error persist in your gallery.

Unfortunately js errors halt any further js from being executed.
