Re: Uploading Image - Livecode Tutorial Example? Sessions?

[Mike Bonner via use-livecode]

I keep hoping for a server wide upgrade myself. I don't use the service all
that much so its not really a critical issue for me, but the one site that
IS actually up, and commercial and useful could be improved with an
alternate version.  I'll see if I can get the .htaccess example working ok,
and if so, then I'l think about potential changes.

Thanks for the previously working example.  Hopefully it will return to
being a currently working example.

Re: Uploading Image - Livecode Tutorial Example? Sessions?

[Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode]

Mike,

i just noticed that my lc server installation on TIO is not working anymore :(

Tio is running LC Version 7.1  and that version always shows an empty $_post 
array when the posted data was formated with libUrlMultipartFormData
I asked support for a server wide upgrade to a version which is able to handle 
that kind of posted data, but w/o success.

So i installed LC DP6 on the 29th April, which is able to handle that kind of 
data,  and it worked w/o problems so far. I am not sure for how long it is not 
working anymore , but im pretty sure it worked at at least until last week.

I really do not know what´s the problem is now, but i am really  peeved. I have 
really no time and no desire to check every day if it is still working. 

I think i have to move that domain also to HostM. Better and quicker support. 
Normal support requests are answered and solved within a few hours. The longest 
time for a reply was about  4 hours, the shortest 30 minutes. Very good ticket 
system, so you can see all previous tickets in your customer account. And and 
and…

Btw, if a customer can proof the purchase of a current commercial LC license 
they install  a version of choice of a commercial license  of LC server account 
wide. No need to install it for every domain / domain folder.

Raspberry Pi help needed soon

[Richard Gaskin via use-livecode]

From this morning's news:

  Raspberry Pi is merging with a coding foundation
  Together, Raspberry Pi and CoderDojo hope to reach 185,000 young
  people in more than 100 countries all over the planet.


This is a great move for both orgs and their audiences, but implies a 
risk for LiveCode platform adoption in further consolidation of 
entrenched support for Scratch and Python.


This suggests that the sooner we can get an updated functional build of 
LiveCode for Raspberry Pi, the better for both our beloved platform and 
RPi users everywhere who currently have to struggle with the gap between 
Scratch and Python.


A LC user on the Glitter channel mentioned working on a new build of LC 
v9 for RPi, but requests for more info have not met with a reply.


We have a forum set up for coordinating these efforts but the two people 
there who've expressed an interest in setting up a build system have run 
into snags with compilation, and support from the LC core dev team has 
not yet materialized:

http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=76=27912

If any of you know your way around a compiler and may be able to lend a 
hand, it would be very valuable for the LiveCode platform to be able to 
run well on Raspberry Pi as soon as practical.

Re: Uploading Image - Livecode Tutorial Example? Sessions?

[Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode]

Mike,

i have successfully intalled LC 9 DP6 on Tio Server using the .htaccess method.

This is the content of my .htaccess

Directory index index.lc

Options -Indexes
Options ExecCGI

AddHandler livecode-script .rev .lc9 .lc
Action livecode-script /cgi-bin/livecode-server-9_0_0_dp_6


Please note that you need to add this to each .htaccess file for each 
domain/domain folder.

So if you use public_html for your main domain, e.g. mike.on-rev.com 
,  and for an additional addon  domain, e.g. 
mikebonner.com , a separate folder, e.g. 
/public_html/mikebonner

then you need to place the .htaccess file and the lcserver binaries into 
public_html and also into the "2nd domain” folder /public_html/mikebonner.

So if you have 50 addon domains and each  in its own folder and you want to use 
your own LC Server binaries for all 50 domains, then you have to copy .htaccess 
and LC Server into
each of the 50 folders.

Please find a screenshot of the permssions i´ve set for each file here:
https://dl.webfactory.onl/permssions_lcserver.png 


HTH,

Matthias

Interesting, it sounds like the version has been updated for on-rev then.
(because a few weeks back it just was NOT working, session variables not
being kept at all)  glad to hear its working for you!

Re: Uploading Image - Livecode Tutorial Example? Sessions?

[JOHN PATTEN via use-livecode]

Hi Mike,

It appears to be working for me now, and I did not have to override the version 
editing the .htaccess file. 

What I’d like to do now is keep the script from naming the new image with a 
random number. :)

Cheers!

Re: Uploading Image - Livecode Tutorial Example? Sessions?

[Mike Bonner via use-livecode]

Theres another issue with on-rev.  Even if you set the sessionSavePath, it
won't work due to the default version of LC on on-rev.  You need to
override the version using an .htaccess file, but i've not managed to
actually get that to work for me.  Looking for the link that tells you how
to do this. If you actually get it to work please let me know how!

http://lessons.livecode.com/m/4070/l/41105-how-do-i-choose-which-livecode-server-engine-to-use-with-on-rev

Unless they've updated the default version for .lc files, you'll need to
switch to a more recent version of the server to get sessions to work.

I figured this would tell me if the function was supposed to return an array or

Interestingly, it returned empty for both.

RE: Funny pricing policy

[** Clarence P Martin ** via use-livecode]

The one thing that makes an application development that is great is the 
userbase. I enjoy the "use LiveCode" and the "LiveCode forum" because of the 
great questions and the even greater response from users to help each other.
I use both tools on a regular basis. We have a society that has fallen into a 
selfish mode -and thankfully not the Livecode community.

Sincerely,

Clarence Martin

FWIW I requested that my Community session for the LiveCode online conference 
be made publicly available for free, and they have supported that request.

Everything I volunteer for with the LiveCode Community is for the benefit of 
everyone, those who might enjoy learning about LiveCode and those who benefit 
from growing the platform.


One thing worth noting about PyCon and many other conferences for open source 
platforms is that those are community efforts, organized by and for the 
community.

Björnke von Gierke used to run a weekly series of video conferences called 
LiveCode TV. Todd Fabacher has run several live webinars, and he and others 
have expressed an interest in making those a regular thing.

With Google On Air freely available for everyone (Mac, Windows, Linux), the 
tools to making and sharing live presentations have only gotten better.

Re: Uploading Image - Livecode Tutorial Example? Sessions?

I think I figured out the issue based on an old post by Sturgis…

Apparently you have to set the sessionSavePath before you call the “start 
session.”

set the sessionSavePath to the defaultfolder

Uploading Image - Livecode Tutorial Example? Sessions?

[JOHN PATTEN via use-livecode]

Hello!

Thanks for those that answered about the problem I was having with FTP. It was 
the URLEncode issue that was tripping me up. 

However, I’m changing gears as I hadn’t realized that I could not ftp directly 
into a htmlpublic directory on On-Rev. Ultimately I am trying to just create a 
little iOS app that will allow me upload and image and create a simple html 
page to display the image.

I have been using the LiveCode tutorial here: “How do I use LiveCode graphics 
features server-side?” 
(http://lessons.livecode.com/m/15262/l/156710-how-do-i-use-livecode-graphics-features-server-side
 
)
 

I can’t get this to work the “start session” included in the script?

The example starts:

Never mind - I see

It works after you turn on mobileSensorStartTracking, and appears to return an

Re: Funny pricing policy

[Heather Laine via use-livecode]

Dear Hermann (and Richmond),

I've responded to your email to support, I trust we can resolve all this 
amicably and become friends again. 

I have now added a note to the survey page to say that if you purchased a 
conference ticket already, and want your free tshirt, just email us. We should 
of course have thought of doing this at the time, but hindsight is 20/20. 

Richmond... the image you have painted in my mind of the entire team doing 
their presentations topless is going to take a while to erase from my mind... 

Warm Regards,

Heather

Re: Does MobileSensorReading work?

[John Dixon via use-livecode]

You must start the 'sensor' first... usually done in your openStack handler... 
as in :-


on openStack

if environment() = "mobile" then


  mobileStartTrackingSensor "location", false

end if

end openStack


on locationChanged latitude, longitude

   set the theCurrentLocation of this stack to latitude & comma & longitude

end locationChanged


then as your location changes, the locationChanged message will give you the 
new lat/long 

Subject: Does MobileSensorReading work?

I put a button on my app and put the app on my iPhone.

The button had the following script:


on mouseUp

put MobileSensorReading("location",true) into tReading

answer the Keys of tReading

answer tReading

end mouseUp

I figured this would tell me if the function was supposed to return an
array or a variable, since I had read both online.

Interestingly, it returned empty for both.

Court jesters were, from my point of view, always very influent and honoured 
people.
A nobody was ever able to make a fool out of them.

But I'm sorry about having written my 'donation' in public and not asking you 
before that, was not polite, sorry for that.

I already wrote to support, so I'll write a second time, donate to another

Re: Funny pricing policy

[Richmond Mathewson via use-livecode]

Well, this is very kind of you, although I do feel rather "funny" about 
the whole thing.


I was donated something else a while back in a similar sort of 'rebound' 
reaction, and

have obviously become even more the court jester than I ever intended to be.

The only reason that I would consider accepting the T-shirt (if it is, 
indeed, available) is that
it might do some good were I to wear it when teaching my summer LiveCode 
classes in June-July.


"to watch speakers in T-shirts"

Well, frankly I'd much prefer to watch speakers in T-shirts than 
speakers without T-shirts as topless programming
does not really excite me (although, admittedly, in the hot summer 
weather I have been known to do some

LiveCode programming in just my underpants in the privacy of my own room).

Both of these should appear in the next 9 DP (7), which will appear when

Re: English Like?

[Richmond Mathewson via use-livecode]

"The Colonies" . . . err . . . Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, the 
Falklands, Gibraltar and St. Helena . . .


Or do you mean the erstwhile colonies? And how erstwhile do you mean?

The North American Colonies . . . um.

As LiveCode is made in a current English Colony (Scotland) but seems to 
adhere to English usage according
to an erstwhile colony (USA), somewhere, somehow this argument doesn't 
hold water at all.


Probably what is needed is a colonoscopy.

Nothing wrong with your java code.
Your LC script was calling the java app without passing the arguments to 
it, and then printing the arguments, so it looked like everything was 
working.


Try changing the java code to this to see the difference:

System.out.println(args[i] + " is arg " + (i+1));
