Error when adding Flickr stream #57

Closed brim415 closed 12 years ago

brim415 commented 12 years ago

I can't add the streams for our Flickr accounts. When I type in our usernames for those sites, I just get an error message. I've already added Twitter and youTube without any problems.

Is there something I'm missing in the back end CMS? Or is there a line of code I need to edit?

eschnou commented 12 years ago

For flickr, you need to add a developer key in the config.ini file

brim415 commented 12 years ago

I have a flickr api in the config.ini, still won't add either flickr or vimeo. Here's the error text specifically:

There was an error while importing the data. Please doublecheck your import configuration and try again later. Let us know if this problem persists.

Currently I have them both set up as RSS feeds, but it'd be ideal to use the sources specifically so they can contribute to the photos and videos pages.

Went into debug mode, and tried to add flickr account again. Here is the log message:

2012-03-07T17:43:48+01:00 ERR (3): Exception updating flickr (3): Flickr return fail when asking for user bcworkshop at url http://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.urls.lookupUser&api_key=&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.flickr.com%2Fphotos%2Fbcworkshop&format=json&nojsoncallback=1

I have the api key entered in config.ini also...

eschnou commented 12 years ago

In the url showned in this error, the api_key is empty. Are you sure your entry in the config file is correct ? ;; Flickr settings flickr.api_key= ^^ did you properly uncomment the line ?

brim415 commented 12 years ago

Aaaaaah...that did it. Sorry, I'm not a coder by trade, so I didn't know about uncommenting. Pardon my newness :)

Any thoughts on the Vimeo part, though?

eschnou commented 12 years ago

No worries, the fault is on the lack of documentation :-)

For Vimeo, can you file a separate issue (so i can close this one wrt flickr) and also provide any kind of error log associated with adding vimeo ? Or more details on what the problem is (an error or everything fine but 0 items ?). Having your vimeo username will also help.
