Issue Summary

I installed the module and uploaded a 7mb mp4 video yesterday. It is still saying Video is being processed, and when i log into youtube to check if it has uploaded through my account it doesn't list the video there. Any ideas?

Do you have cron enabled for your site?

#2

I don't have it set up to run cron jobs, but i manually ran it and nothing happened. Do i need to set up some to get it to process the video?

#3

No, manually running cron should send the video to YouTube...are there any errors listed in your watchdog report? The module is fairly verbose about errors it encounters.

#4

Ah. In the log it says file is not readable:

Video Upload: error Error reading file - sites/default/files/Babar.AVI. File is not readable. while attempting to upload a video.

And looking into the folder i realise it hasn't even uploaded the file. It didn't come back with any errors. I should be able to upload a 20mb file (this is only 7mb).

Why could it be not uploading it, would it be something with the video module or drupal. I know that drupal has no problem uploading photo files as that is set up elsewhere.

#5

I just added another video and it has been uploaded (maybe the other two, which were from a few days ago, got deleted). I ran cron and in the log there was:

Video Upload: error C8 <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>yt:validationinvalid_charactermedia:group/media:description/text() 0 while attempting to upload a video.

That would be fckeditor or some other wysiwyg adding markup to the tags sent to youtube. There's an open issue to have the module strip that stuff out, but in the meantime, you can disable the wysiwyg for the field settings page, and then make sure no html tags are in those default description, default tags or default title fields.

Thanks. I turned off FCKEditor for the Body field and it uploads fine. Ran a cron and it is up there. Brilliant.

Now i just need to set up a cron job.

Thanks a lot jhedstrom

Hi there,

I am having a similar problem on my localhost, with Mac, MAMP, Drupal 6.9. Cron is timing out and I'm getting this report: "Cron run exceeded the time limit and was aborted."

Bumped the PHP 5 php.ini levels all the way up to:

max_execution_time = 1500 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
max_input_time = 1600 ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
memory_limit = 128M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB)

(first tried more reasonable 300/600 execution time/input time.)

And ...

upload_max_filesize = 100M
post_max_size = 100M

I did have this working on another server set-up, so am at my wit's end. Any suggestions?

Thanks so much.

Cheers,
Kevin
