[support] issue with video_upload module

Tue Jun 2 15:02:32 UTC 2009

Hi Tim,

Thanks again for the quick help!

I went into the httpd log on my server and saw that DOMDocument.class
was missing. That comes with an php xml package. I just installed it and
at least cron works while the module is Enabled. 

Watching the "manage video uploads" now gives me an overview of the
movies uploaded to youtube. I guess it's working! I'll do some more
tests though.

Regards,

Ole

Hey Ole,

First and foremost, you should be able to get output (log/errors) from
cron--either with crontab or your webhost.  However, I noticed the
install file mentioned some default php settings may not work with
videos:

Additionally, the default PHP settings for upload_max_filesize and
   post_max_size (8MB) are far too low for handling video, and should
   be bumped up to a more appropriate limit.

Also, the max_execution for php time is generally set to 30 seconds, I
have run into that problem with cron before.  You can add the php
statement 

set_time_limit(120);

to the top of the cron.php file and see if that helps (120 is the number
of seconds to allow php to execute for the file.  You could also
experiment with other values).

After adjusting these settings, you should probably restart apache or at
least verify that the settings are in effect with the php statement 

phpinfo()

I would try looking at the php settings especially in tandem with output
from your cron job first before troubleshooting video_upload specifics.

Hope that helps,
Tim

Thanks Tim,

Yes, for D6.* files are uploaded to files/ First. The problem lies with
the cron.

With the module enabled, cron (http://mysite/drupal-6.12/cron.php does
not work, if I disable the module, cron works fine. 

Where can I find settings or configurations of the video_upoad module
that effect cron?

Regards,

Ole

Hey Ole,

Did you see that the videos are posted to the 'files' directory first
and then subsequently uploaded to youtube for 6.x?  Also do you have
cron running--that's how the videos move from your site to youtube?  I
guess I'd look at cron and then the zend gdata library settings for
errors first.

Best,
Tim

Hi all,

I haven't been able to make video_upload working. I installed the
module, the dependencies like CCK and file_field and everything else
needed as far as I know. After enabling the module and some
configuration I saw there was a working authentication with Youtube, but
the files get uploaded to my own site under /files/. Of course I want to
upload the files to youtube instead. The youtube account is working: I
uploaded a movie through youtube.

Here is some additional info:

PHP 5.2.6
Drupal 6.12
module: http://drupal.org/project/video_upload

Any help is wonderful.
Thanks in advance for the trouble taken.
