Hi guys,

Fist of all nice work on this module, it looks great on all examples I have seen. The only problem is that I can't get it to work on my site(s).

I have attempted installing it on two separate sites, which run on separate servers, and I have the exact same problem on both. I'm starting to think it might be the SSP standalone version I'm using (1.9.8.4).

I install the module and point to .swf file, have attempted moving it to different locations, at the moment it's on the / http://drupal.org/files/Screen%20shot%202010-07-16%20at%2000.52.27.png.
When I click on Example I see the gray ssp window draw and the following message shows on the middle "Error: Slideshow data not found. Check XML File Path and Type".
I believe this is the same error that you get when using the flash version instead of the standalone, but I guarantee I'm using the standalone version, downloaded freshly today from SSP site.

ssp_thumbnail is working fine, see screenshoot: http://drupal.org/files/Screen%20shot%202010-07-16%20at%2000.52.50.png

I'm able to create a Slideshow content and upload pictures fine: http://drupal.org/files/Screen%20shot%202010-07-16%20at%2000.54.47.png

but when viewing the newly created content the SSP box is black, no pictures are loaded: http://drupal.org/files/Screen%20shot%202010-07-16%20at%2000.55.03.png

I've spent two days trying and can't get pass this point, as I mentioned before I have attempted this on another servers and the exact same problem is happening.

URL for the server I've took all screenshoots form is: http://tiger.ckzone.eu/?q=node/3

Any help or any ideas pointing me to possible solutions are much appreciated, I've been through every single issue reported here and could find anything that helped.

Thanks
Kadu

Also worth mentioning, same problem with clean-url enabled:

Just wiped out everything from the other site (in a different server) reinstalled drupal, fresh database, clean installation. Added the required modules for SSP integration, enabled them all and SSP integration.... same problem!!!

:(

Note, this time I installed all dev versions of the modules, just to make sure they are the latest possible versions

I seriously believe ssp standalone v. 1984 is the actual proble, but am open for suggestions. Will contact SSP now to see if they can provide me version 197.

It looks like that last site is now working. I'm having the same problem(I believe) - the 'images.xml' file is not being found - or created, apparently. Can you share what you did to get your site working?

Thanks,

Tom

Hi Tom,

http://zaia.jeziorny.com.br is working but it's not using the ssp integration module, I gave up on using it for the moment as I could not get it to work.

So instead the page is now using the SlideshowPro module (http://drupal.org/project/slideshowpro) alone. I've created my galleries with SSP for flash using picasaweb RSS media as input source.

This way galleries are automatically updated when I upload pics to the picasaweb galleries. It works like a treat.

Still would like to know why I can't get SSP integration to work.

Confirmed this error on both windows and linux fresh drupal installations with version 1.9.8.5 of SSP Standalone.

Corrected by replacing node embed code in ssp.module, lines 178-186 with Dominey recommended...

                return '<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0" width="'.$width.'" height="'.$height.'" id="loader" align="middle">
                 <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
                 <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />
                 <param name="FlashVars" value="paramXMLPath='.$base_path.'/?q=node/'.$nid.'/0/params.xml" />
                 <param name="base" value="." />
                 <param name="wmode" value="'. $wmode .'">
                 <param name="movie" value="'.$path.'" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="'.$bcolor.'" />  
                   <embed base="." FlashVars="paramXMLPath='.$base_path.'/?q=node/'.$nid.'/0/params.xml" src="'.$path.'" quality="best" bgcolor="'.$bgcolor.'" width="'.$width.'" height="'.$height.'" name="loader" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" allowFullScreen="true" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
                 </object>';

Can be replaced with


              return 
              '<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.2/swfobject.js"></script>
              <script type="text/javascript">
                // SWFObject embed
                var flashvars = {         
                  paramXMLPath: "'. $base_path .'?q=node/' .$nid. '/0/params.xml",
                  xmlFilePath: "'. $base_path .'?q=node/' .$nid. '/0/images.xml",
                  xmlFileType: "Default",
                  initialURL: escape(document.location)
                }
                var params = { 
                  bgcolor: "' .$bgcolor. '",   
                  allowfullscreen: "true",
                  wmode: "'. $wmode .'"
                }                
                var attributes = {}
                swfobject.embedSWF("'. $path .'", "flashcontent", "'. $width .'", "'. $height .'", "10.0.0", false, flashvars, params, attributes);  
              </script>
              <div id="flashcontent">
                This SlideShowPro photo gallery requires the Flash Player plugin and a web browser with JavaScript enabled.
              </div>';

Also replace lines 167-175 with respective changes to reference after node (e.g. "1" instead of "0") for multiple nodes.

Hi- I am using version 1.9.8.5 of SSP Standalone. I tried replacing the code for single and multiple nodes. I created a new single slideshow and now you don't see the flash player at all. As opposed to seeing one with no images. Any help would be great.

Thanks!
