First - I've read all the threads and can't figure out where my problem is.

FlashVideo works fine (great module). But when I add S3 support and enter my correct S2 keys, it's not working as I expect. No buckets are created in S3 and no files are copied.

I saw a log in a ticket that showed the status of S3 communication, but I can't figure out where to find any error messages to give you.

Except occasionally when I manually run cron.php, I get this:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: simplexml_load_string() in /home/deanhome/public_html/kellerpips/modules/flashvideo/drivers/Storage3/Storage3.php on line 493

Also, do I have to define an output directory in the FFMPG settings if I'm using S3?

Thanks,

Billy

Oh - I just checked, I'm running PHP 4.4.6. Might that be the problem? Looking in the Storage.php driver it ays "A PHP5 class for interfacing with the Amazon S3 API".

Yes... I am afraid so. I actually did not write the Storage.php driver for the Amazon S3 plugin, and lately I have not been able to devote enough time to port it to an earlier version of PHP. Does anyone know of any ports of this plugin? If so, then I would be happy to issue a PHP 4 version of the S3 plugin.

OK, Not a big deal. I'll contact my hosting provider. At least I know why it's not working. Again, thanks for your hard work. The integration with the Amazon EC3 would be wonderful. The Video Mashup Sample that they give is a perfect application for it, and Drupal is the perfect front end.

Thanks for your quick reply.

I started using PHP5 and it works fine. Thanks.

BTW - fyi, all I had to do was simply create a .htaccess file in your public_html directory with the following:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php

This will cause your scripts to be processed by PHP5 instead of PHP4.
