Regarding the publish service, I’m not closing the door. I’m waiting to see if a later beta or the definitive release of LR3 will change something and make it more “usefull” for Gallery users.

I’ll have a look and release a 2.0.4 version this weekend!

It overwrites two files in the version 2.0.3 release to make the following changes:
- replaced use of function no longer supported in LR3 (LR2 SDK states withCatalogDo will not be supported by LR3)
- fixed minor typo in TranslatedStrings_en.txt

I’ve confirmed it works with LR3 but haven’t tested older LR versions yet.

I noticed that your plugin code originated from the lr-to-gallery sourceforge project. Have you ever considered merging this branch back into the original project? I’ve been talking to the owner of the project and have commit access so it still is alive, and it would be easier to provide assistance if the project was maintained somewhere public. Feel free to email me to discuss further.

I wouldn’t write off the Publish Service concept just yet. After reading forum feedback it sounds like it may support album based publication better than you think. Time will tell I guess.

I still plan ton maintain the plugin, at least as long as I will be using LR and Gallery. However, any kind of help is welcome.

Regarding LR3, the SDK has not been published yet, as far as I know. So I will work to make the plugin compatible with LR3 when it will ship.
I also had a look at the publish service. I find it nice, however, it think it is much more appropriate to Flickr than to Gallery because Flickr acts as a big repository in which you publih your picture and then you modify your albums. Gallery (1, 2 and also 3) requires you to publish the picture is the target album. Because of this, we would need to have a “publish service” for each and every album of Gallery in which you plan to upload pictures.

Thanks,
Matt

set up:
LR 2.4 (64-bit) OS Vista Home Prem
Original file format: Canon RAW
other plugins used: LR2/Mogrify

Processes I have tried:
1. try to export 40+ images at once with LR2/Mogrify enabled
result: SOME images upload with LR2/Mogrify changes others fail to upload

2. try to export 1 image at a time w/ LR2/Mogrify enabled
result: SOMEimages do upload, some don’t pattern to which do or not (at least no pattern I can see)

3. tried to import 40+ images w/o LR2/Mogrify disenabled
result: items uploaded no errors

4. tried to import 1 image same that failed previously LR2/Mogrify disabled
result: items seem to upload

Please help, not sure why some pictures within the same batch would convert/upload and some won’t. I like the Plugin, but have had to spend way too much time troubleshooting why it’s not working consistently. I need to use it with Mogrify for my workflow. Have there been others who have had similar problems?

Effectivement, l’installation du mode Digest ou une quelconque autre solution de SSO va modifier le dialogue HTTP standard.

En l’occurrence, à la première requête, le module cherche à savoir si Gallery Remote est opérationnel, et va recevoir un HTTP code 401 lui demandant de s’authentifier. A L’occasion, je verrai si je peux tester ce cas avec le module et surtout si le SDK pour Lightroom permet de faire du dialogue HTTP avec les credentials en mode Digest.

Pour le moment, il n’y a pas d’autre solution que de ne pas activer le mode Digest pour les connexions via Lightroom. Peut-être est il possible de modifier la configuration d’Apache pour désactiver ce mode si le client est Lightroom (user-agent à vérifier, mais ca pourrait être IE), ou en fonction de l’adresse IP.

J’ai néanmoins un problème de connexion/authentification (comme avec celui d’origine).
Je m’explique. Tout marche parfaitement avec une install standard de Gallery avec son authentification de base.

En revanche, j’ai une install Apache avec authentification “digest” et j’utlise le module HttpAuth de Gallery 2 pour authentifier mes users (en qque sorte un petit “single signon” pour le blog+gallery). Et là ça marche pas : Could not establish a connection to the remote Gallery.

Ce qui m’oblige à “dévérouiller” partiellement pour publier mes photos…
Une idée?
