AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'nodeValue'

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Execute Phoshare with a iPhoto library of about 4500 images in multiple 
events.
2. Double check all options (face tags options disabled) and try to export to a 
folder (no links)
3. (exiftool installed, just in case)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

- All subfolders created in the destination folder, but a big part of them is 
empty
- Getting an error on the Phoshare output window: "AttributeError: 'NoneType' 
object has no attribute 'nodeValue' "

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
OSX 10.6.2, iPhoto '09 v8.1.2(424), Phoshare 1.4.3

Thanks for the bug report, and the screen shot. The problem occurs while 
checking the meta data of a .nef (Nikon RAW image) file. This will be fixed in 
an upcoming update. You should be able to avoid the error by unchecking "Export 
Originals" for now.

Hello, thanks for your answer.

I retried unchecking that option, but I still get that same error.

I might indeed have a few .nef images in my collection.
Checking right now, looks like I have only 4.. I try to copy them elsewhere and 
delete them from iphoto.
Nope, still the same error, even without .nef images.

I'll post a fix tonight. You must have some images with unusual meta data 
structures, and that is tripping up the code that is trying to parse them.

Nice! :)

At the very least I managed to get a first backup of my library, by simply 
hiding all the images in that "bugged" event (the one originally containing the 
4 .nef images).
Now I just have to export the photos from that event alone.

Could you please try Phoshare-1.4.5 at
http://code.google.com/p/phoshare/downloads/detail?name=Phoshare-1.4.5.zip
to see if that addresses your problem?

Thanks

Hi, I confirm that it's fixed, this version works without problems with .NEF 
images and exporting originals. The event which was giving problems works too.

Thanks a lot! Keep up the great work! :)
