Not true at all as far as I'm concerned, core :) Tweaking and repackaging code to make it easier to use is just as much a (sometimes thankless) task as writing it in the first place. As are testing, writing good bug reports, writing documentation, creating great in-world content, etc. Writing code is only one part of the equation.

thanks for the kind words fleep :)

however, the contributors list contains the only people worthy of any praise in 
this project.  all i'm doing is tweaking
and repackaging their goodies into a (fairly) no-brainer bundle for easier 
consumption and fewer sleepless nights.  i
don't know of anyone that wouldn't benefit from a little bit of that.  "less is 
more, simpler is better" - that's my
story and i'm sticking to it!  be well.

Thanks so much, Core, this helps a ton!  It's probably something of a pain to 
maintain but I for one am SO grateful
that you do it, I can't say thanks enough.  (Do you have a donate page 
somewhere?  I'd totally love to buy you a pizza
or something.)

And thanks to Gwyn for the troubleshooting, too, that helped me better 
understand how some of these pieces link up,
which I've found pretty confusing in the past.  Hooray for working profiles!

    my sincere apologies for any confusion or inconvenience.  life has pulled 
me away from my ongoing OpenSim projects
    and i simply lost track of the bundle's status.  i hadn't heard a peep in 
some time so i was unaware of the errors
    that were occuring (due to me uploading a less-than-final version to the 
repository).  so...

    i have uploaded a new version which is fully compatible with OS 0.7.4 
containing the latest changes made to any
    code and DLLs freshly compiles against the 074 server source.

    i also re-uploaded a corrected version of the 0.7.3 compatible bundle for 
those still rolling with older OpenSim
    installations.

    i updated my git-hub repository (os_services_bundle-dev) containing the raw 
and unaltered forked/ported source
    distributions for each of the 4 modules.  i'm sure i failed to mention this 
was around for those seeking an
    all-in-one place to grab the otherwise scattered code.

    here are the URLs-

    standard downloads: http://opensim.odosys.net/files/
    git-hub repositories: https://github.com/anticore

    hope this helps and again, my apologies for letting things slide.  please 
let me know if there any problems.  take
    care.

    SUCCESS.

    So here is what needs to be done...

    Start downloading http://opensim.odosys.net/files/ — the 0.7.3 version 
works well under 0.7.4RC1

    Change register.php and search.php to get Search to work. All that needs to 
be done is:

    At the top, comment out:

    //mysql_connect ($DB_HOST, $DB_USER, $DB_PASSWORD);
    //mysql_select_db ($DB_NAME);

    and use:

    mysql_connect ($dbHost, $dbUser, $dbPassword);
    mysql_select_db ($dbName);

    That's it.

    Now for the modules. These have been shuffled around from repository to 
repository, but, until the developers
    change their mind again, they're now on GitHub. For some reason, they're 
spread across 3 different projects.

    First, get the OpenSimProfile and OpenSimSearch modules from 
https://github.com/PixelTomsen/opensim-dev-external
    Both work quite well! Even with the "strange" and not-entirely-compliant 
profile.php, this seems not to bother
    the viewer and/or the simulator — they like what they get.

    Extra bonus: now profiles work flawlessly across HyperGrid teleports. 
Woo-hoo! And yes, IMs across HyperGrid also
    work, and so does teleports, and so do friendship requests... Whew... a lot 
of things started working again! Hooray!

    The OMEconomy module is here: 
https://github.com/PixelTomsen/omeconomy-module
    This works well with the VirWox Test server, although I thought I'd be 
seeing my OMC$ shown on the viewer, which
    doesn't really happen. But — it might be a limitation of the "test" server.

    The interesting-looking UserLog module is here: 
https://github.com/PixelTomsen/opensim-userlogmodule
    I couldn't get it to work (the database is in place, but somehow OpenSim is 
not really caring much about it).

    Groups, of course, you get from the Flotsam Cache module, all you need is 
to configure it, and making sure that
    the os_services bundle is properly configured. As said, even though the 
code is weirdly programmed, it actually
    works quite well.

    So that's it. I'm a happy girl. Now I don't have merely a working 
environment as before, but one that even has
    additional functionality! Not bad, only one week to get an upgrade.

    And now I can go back to the CPU/memory performance issues — 
http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=6031 —
    which has been keeping me busy for months. Well, weeks.

    Thanks all for the many tips!

        Do you use the latest dll's ? otherwise copy the ones out of the osgrid 
opensim version.
        search works fine on osgrid and profiles.  dll where updated a while 
ago.

        Hi Gwyn,

        I just upgraded some of the staff regions on our university grid to 
0.7.4 RC1, and it appears that from the
        OS Services Bundle (just copying over from previous version) the 
offline IM and group services are working,
        but profiles and search is not.  Well, actually I don;'t think I ever 
got search to work, but profiles
        definitely did work before but don't seem to now post upgrade.  Seeing 
no problems with sending offline IMs
        and creating groups, adding members to groups, using the new group land 
settings etc.

        Not sure if that helps, and the only thing I can think of that I 
consistently goof up when upgrading is
        forgetting to move the .dll files from /bin to /bin when I upgrade.  I 
finally remembered to add that to my
        documentation today, what little notes I made are at:
        http://ucopensim.wikispaces.com/Opensim+0.7.4+RC1

        Would love to hear if anyone else gets profiles or search working with 
0.7.4 RC1, I'm never sure what's user
        error and what isn't with those two services.

        Sincerely,

        - Fleep

            Sorry to bump this thread. I wonder if the OS Services Bundle for 
OpenSim works with 0.7.4 RC1. I've
            definitely managed to compile it in, and OpenSim definitely lists 
the modules as having been loaded, but...

            ... somehow, OpenSim 0.7.4 RC1 is ignoring any requests made 
through these modules. I don't get any
            errors, either. It's simply as if OpenSim thinks, "ok, nice, I have 
now a few new modules and some nice
            URLs to connect to, but I'm simply ignoring everything and use 
whatever I already had (which won't work
            anyway, but who cares)" :-(
