Cannot use a scalar value

I'm not able to duplicate this error, although while I was trying, I found a few bugs in calls to the t() function, which I fixed and committed to CVS.

Could you provide more information about how and where this is happening?

Thanks,

Jonathan

Hey vatoloco,

The first error I'm still not sure about (regarding using a scalar for an array), as I can't seem to reproduce it, so it may in fact be due to a different module.

Regarding the second error, this is caused when the module can't connect to youtube. More detailed errors (regarding the specific reason, if known) are thrown in watchdog, so you could try looking there (admin/logs/watchdog). Also, if you browse to admin/reports/status, the module will provide detailed errors if it's missing certain things.

Let me know if you find (or don't find) anything in those two places.

*Authentication to YouTube succeeded, but failed to generate a token

This is a good sign, in that you are authenticating :)

The 403 response is sent by YT when"

403 (Forbidden) - A 403 response code indicates that you have submitted a request that is not properly authenticated for the requested operation.

A few obvious questions:

* Do you have more than 1000 videos on your account? (yt api disallows uploads after 1000)
* Do you have the developer key properly set in your settings? (yt will authenticate w/o a developer key, but you can't upload video w/o one)

Some less obvious possibilities:

* The module attempts to account for illegal characters, but it's possible that I forgot one. What settings did you configure the field with in terms of default title, keywords, description and developer tags? If any of those are blank, what is your site name (this gets sent in the event of blank defaults)?

However, if that were the problem, I would expect the response code to be 400 instead of 403...so that may be a wile goose chase. I'll try and look into this a bit more...let me know if you find anything.

Cheers,

Jonathan

i have the same problem with drupal 5.7 and cck 1.7 and don't know why?

I'm still unable to reproduce the "Cannot use a scalar value" error, but I'll continue to look into it.

I'm getting this before and after updating cck to dev as of today.

"warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in /home/womannet/public_html/sites/all/modules/cck/content.module on line 617."

The line reference is to 617

The code below is from cck-5.x-1.x-dev starting at line 615 and ending at line 620

else {
          foreach ($node_field as $delta => $item) {
            $node_field[$delta]['view'] = content_format($field, $item, $formatter, $node);
          }
          $value = theme('field', $node, $field, $node_field, $teaser, $page);
        }

I am still unable to reproduce this warning on a clean install, with only the video upload module enabled. Any additional information involving your site configuration may help me track it down.

Here is the content export of the content type in case that helps.

Thanks Drutube. With that content definition, I was able to reproduce the issue, and fix it. The fix has been committed to 5.x-dev, and to the new 5.x Beta release.

Defiantly fixed. Thank you John. This is an extremely cool thing you've done. Great work.

John,
As I noted here the scalar / array thing is fixed. However now it exposes a another problem I'm having that might be better explained in another post as a feature request. In short I've done some research on the Youtube errors and I'm mightily confused now. I'll post separate. Thanks again.
