Awesome! No rush - but I think this could be very useful and have other applications as well.

Anyone want to help out with a PHP page or two?

I'll admit I'm a complete newbie at this, I've got 7.0.15 running and 2.28 of the web interface running. I'm trying to import some shows via XML created from MigrateMCtoSage. I've got everything installed and the following options selected.
checked - Overwrite Existing Show Information
checked - Overwrite existing sage TV file information
checked - Keep original imported filename
checked - use imported file data to determine starttime

For directory path I have C:\Program Files\SageTV\SageTV
And the file I'm importing.

When I click on submit query I get the following error.

Processing List of 2 Files:
Failed to read XML file:

2 XML Errors during parsing
XML Parse error at line line 2 col 37: Document root element "PluginRepository", must match DOCTYPE root "null".
XML Parse error at line line 2 col 37: Document is invalid: no grammar found.

2 XML Errors during parsing
XML Parse error at line line 2 col 79: Document root element "Module", must match DOCTYPE root "null".

Here is the XML I'm using

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

I'm not seeing anything in the sagetv_0.txt log and I have debug logging enable and the plugin logging set to verbose.

Any thoughts? Is the directory path correct, not sure if that is what I'm supposed to put there. Is my XML messed up?

Thanks,
Josh

It sounds like you're entering a path in the "Directory Path To Import All XML" field, which picks up all XML files in the specified directory. But you're importing a single XML file so you want to enter your xml file into the "Upload any Sage XML files here" field.

[calypsocowboy]

I tried that and all I get is a screen saying "is not a valid directory on the server" . I get the same thing if I paste the XML or select the file so I was under the impression it needed a directory.

I know that this is not really recommended for the long term, but how do I disable the user/password requirement on the Sage Web server? (I am trying to troubleshoot a problem with the SageGadget) When I try to just press enter without a password in the Plugin Manager it doesn't seem to like it. Can I do this in the realms.properties files.

Maybe there's a bug there. Try creating an empty directory on your server and specifying that directory on the web page, along with your filename in "Upload any Sage XML files here".

If there's still a problem, put your XML file in that directory on the server, specify the directory on the web page, and leave "Upload any Sage XML files here" blank.

It's done on an app-by-app basis. So for the Sage Web UI edit the jetty/contexts/nielm_websrv.context.xml file and change any occurrence of:

<Set name="authenticate">true</Set>

to:

<Set name="authenticate">false</Set>

You shouldn't need to restart anything, saving that file will cause Jetty to redeploy the web app.

[wayner]

What about the same line(s) in the sagewebapp.xml file. Do they have to be changed? Or is that just for the mobile app?

[jreichen]

That's just for the mobile web app.

[calypsocowboy]

I'm not sure what fixed it, but I put the file on the server and put it in the directory. I also made sure I have the Import TV files option selected and it imported the files, so not sure completely what I was doing wrong. But thanks for the help.

I just installed the new Web UI and I'm able to hit the main page, but anytime I look at details of a show, I get this error:

I didn't have any issues on the old setup of Web UI without jetty. I'm sure I did something wrong, but I figured the plug-in system was suppose to make it dummy proof. Also, one thing I really liked on the old web ui was being able to convert mac addresses of extenders to useful names. Is this possible to do in the newer version?

Sorry if my questions have been answered else where, but I wasn't able to find it.

Thanks

After rebooting the server, the web UI is working as expected. My last outstanding issue is converting the MAC address to a useful name.

Please advise.

Thanks

I've never seen this error before. Did you uninstall the old web server installation?

You can still name extenders by editing the webserver/extenders.properties file.

Oh, I didn't realize we were still using that folder. I thought that was only for the old installation style. I will try updating the extenders.properties file there and I'm guessing all will work again.

Thanks

[jreichen]

Some of the files are still used. Check the wiki if you want all the details.

[wayner]

In my /sageserver:sageport/apps page I have a double entry for the SageTV Web Interface. The other five Jetty apps only show up once each and there is no particular problem as both links work (as they link to the same page). Is there any way to easily delete the dual entry?

[jreichen]

What files are in your jetty/contexts folder? The way I have it set up there's one of those for each web app.

[Skirge01]

Man, we sure owe you a lot. You've ported quite a few things over to v7 for us. Thanks so much for that.

[reggie14]

I really hosed up something.

Edit: Look a couple posts down because I solved this problem by uninstalling-reinstalling Jetty, BMT and the WebUI, but I still have a couple other problems.

I have what was originally a Sage v6 installation (that had an old version of the web server installed), but I recently upgraded to version 7. I just installed Jetty, BMT, and the Web interface, and I can't seem to get anything working. I don't know if I'm posting in the right place, but I'm really confused where the current documentation for the new v7 plugin repository version.

I don't know if it matters, but I didn't uninstall the old webserver before I installed the plugins in v7. For some reason I thought it would take care of it. Maybe that's how I screwed it up.

Anyway, I can't login. I didn't know what the default login was, and I knew I was going to want to change it anyway. So, I found something that suggested I edit realm.properties. So I put my desired username/password in. But then when I restarted the webserver from the plugin interface I noticed the username/password listed there didn't change. But I also noticed the realm.properties file still had my changes to the new name.

So then I tried editing the username and password from the plugin interface (which I didn't originally know I could do). After doing that and restarting the webserver I'm now getting an error 403: User not in required role.

I tried resetting the configuration for the plugin. Oddly, that changed the username back to Sage in the realm.properties file, but my modified password stayed in there. But, when I under "sage" and my modified password, I don't login at all. When I use sage/frey, I can login, but I get the same error 403: User not in a required role.

So, I'm really confused what to do at this point. I'm not even sure if the realm.properties file is used anymore (although, it does seem to change somewhat randomly based on things I do in the plugin interface). I'm also not sure what I should do with my old webserver installation. I noticed that the /SageTV/webserver directory is still there, which I think is the old install. But, it doesn't seem to be running. Do I need to do anything besides delete the folder?

I had created a backup of the xml file in this folder - that is why there were two instances of the Sage Web app. Thanks for your help!
