"An error occurred while publishing the album "albumname." this is not a valid location for this request.
my dotmac account is programmed into my computer and working just fine in every other way. what's going on here?
help! thank you

David:
How long has this gone on? Have you been able to publish successfully previously? Apple has been having problems with their servers for the last several days. My publishing efforts from iWeb and iPhoto have been sporadic, good one moment and bad a short time later only to get good again. Be sure to post your problem to the .Mac and iPhoto feedback sites:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html
http://www.apple.com/feedback/mac/tm.html
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Im trying to publish a web gallery to BC, my settings seem correct but I'm still getting an error: FTP transfer failed ' unknown error'. Techs on BC, say FTP working fine. Please help!

Hey peeps,
Im trying to publish a web gallery to be hosted on BC. Despite having what seem the correct settings im getting an error: FTP transfer failed ' unknown message'. Have checked with techs on BC. They say FTP working fine that end.
Any suggestions?

Have you tried connecting to another FTP server in Lightroom?
For example, if you get a free Flickr account, can you login to it and upload a file to it?
If you can't upload to any server, then you have a general FTP-in-Lr problem, but if problem is only with BC then, well, it's time to start scrutinizing the BC settings..
PS - All my FTP'ing plugins have an enhanced FTP settings test feature designed to help you debug FTP settings, so another option is to download one of them, for example:
robcole.com - FTPAggregator
and experiment with settings tester:
To get here, you have to click 'View / Edit Additional Settings' (in plugin manager), then choose 'New' or 'Edit' from 'Sync Pairs' drop-down menu.
If test is unsuccessful, enable verbose logging (top section of plugin manager), and review the log file after test, or send to me.
If you have a problem running plugin, please contact me directly:

Trying to publish a web gallery using iPhoto '08 version 7.1.1.

I have recently been getting the following message while trying to publish a web gallery through iPhoto:
Request to the server http://publish.me.com failed.
And all the pictures go "pending" without ever getting published. My mobileme membership is current and I make sure I am online while I try to publish. I have published web galleries before, this has happened only recently.
Any ideas?

I'm receiving the same issue. I haven't tried to upload a new gallery for awhile. The only change (although a big one) I've made to my system since was upgrading to Snow Leopard. I'm still running iPhoto '08 and my mobileme account is current.

Can't Publish to Web Gallery

Hi!
I have a slightly annoying problem.
I am selecting an event in iphoto and then clicking publish to web gallery. A window pops up to say that I need to be logged in to .mac to use web gallery.... I have the option to login, learn more about .mac or 'no thanks'. I select 'login'. It automatically logs me in and that's it. Nothing happens. If close the window and try again, it just goes around in the same loop.
My other .mac services are working fine.
Any one know to fix this?

Robin
Welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
1 - Are you running iPhoto version 7.1.3 (the latest version)
2 - GO to your system preferences ==> Internet & network ==> .mac and verify that everything is correct there
3 - in Safari go to www.apple.com and log into your .mac account and go to the account page and verify that everything is correct there
4 - try again

Publishing a web gallery via Homepage

I've followed the rather cryptic instructions found in one of the manuals and also on a post here to a "t" and still can't get my web gallery up at .mac. I've created a new Homepage, added a new "page", clicked "edit link", inserted teh URL from the Aperture "publish" button, and it still doesn't work. (As an example of cryptic, the "example" in the edit link field says "www.mac.com" -- that doesn't really bear any resemblance to the actual link that shows up in Aperture. There appears to be a complete file located on my iDisk in the Sites folder, but nothing, nada, zilch. I keep getting an error page when I try to go to the published site. In the end, I exported to iPhoto and created a new iWeb page without any trouble at all, but I'd prefer to skip the extra steps.
Can anyone point me to a definitive set of instructions on how to do this and why should it be this hard anyway?

Hi,
Use the SEARCH button here on SDN, there have been already several blogs explaining how to publish web services.
By the way, SAP is a software vendor. You have to tell which SAP software product and release you are using...

I can't publish to Web Gallery

I had an album on my Web Gallery and intended to add another album tonight. I can't see the old one and can't publish the new one. I keep getting the error "Request to the Server Failed"
Does anyone know what this means and how I can get my iPhoto to connect? I have internet service that is working, so this doesn't make sense to me. TIA.

I am now having the same problem - I keep getting an error saying cant find server - yet iWeb and Mobile are publishing and syncing fine.

Publish to Web Gallery, makes individual pages and the "gallery" is empty

I am experimenting with Web Gallery because I would like to use this feature to put my high school reunion pictures up.
I've just converted recently to iPhoto '08. I've been working with events and have organized my reunion photos into 3 events (about 150 photos). But I started by just seeing how it is to just put up one or two small jpegs, to see how it works. I uploaded 3 different small events. They have individual urls and when I sign into my dotmac account, it tells me I have 3 pages, but no gallery. How do I get them to show in the gallery? Can I select 3 events at once to publish?
what is the difference between publishing an "event" and publishing an "album"?
thanks

Yes, I see 3 galleries showing in the web gallery section in the left hand sidebar of iPhoto.
Yes, when I go to iPhoto preferences, Web Gallery section, I see the three galleries. It calls them albums, but I see them.
Yes, in the Finder, when I look at iDisk =>web =>sites =>_gallery, I see 3 folders corresponding to the 3 created urls.
Yes, in iPhoto, if I select one of the galleries and click the URL, I do get to the photos I just published, in Safari.
But.... here's the rub, and the question. If I go log into dotmac in Safari, on the left hand side of the dotmac page, under my account, underneath the links to go to Mail and the Address Book, there is an entry for Web Gallery. Then it lists "My Gallery" followed by the names I gave the 3 galleries I created. If I click on any of the pages I named, I get to them. If I click "My Gallery", it says "This Web Gallery is Empty".
What I was thinking "My Gallery" might be is an overlying web gallery home page onto which I could post multiple galleries. Is that what it is, and how do I get to it?
Thanks,
JScott

Workshop 10.1 WSDL - cannot publish generated Web service

I'm trying to create a Web service starting from a WSDL using the doc Web Service Development Starting Points ([url http://edocs.bea.com/wlw/docs101/guide/webservices/conWebServiceDevelopmentCycle.html]http://edocs.bea.com/wlw/docs101/guide/webservices/conWebServiceDevelopmentCycle.html) .
I create a Web service project, import my WSDL into my src directory, click on the WSDL and select Web Services > Generate Web Service.
Workshop generates the implementation class and the JAR file, just like the doc describes.
When I try to publish it to my server in the IDE< however, I get an error :
Error with publish task 'WebServicesProjectBuildTask'.
Web services in WLW101Example_WebServiceFromWSDL_JAXRPC have errors.
java.lang.UnsupportedMethodException: Method not implemented.
Error(s) occurred during publish assembly. No modules will be published.
The operation in the WSDL has been implemented, and the class is pretty simple :
package com.kohls.services;
import javax.jws.WebService;
import weblogic.jws.*;
import com.kohls.is.soa.x09.meta.*;
* KohlsDynamicWsPortTypeImpl class implements web service endpoint interface KohlsDynamicWsPortType */
@WebService(serviceName = "KohlsDynamicWS",
            targetNamespace = "http://www.kohls.com/is/soa/0.9/meta",
            endpointInterface = "com.kohls.services.KohlsDynamicWsPortType")
@WLHttpTransport(contextPath = "is/soa/0.9", serviceUri = "meta", portName = "KohlsDynamicWsBinding")
public class KohlsDynamicWsPortTypeImpl implements KohlsDynamicWsPortType
public KohlsDynamicWsPortTypeImpl()
public com.kohls.is.soa.x09.meta.KohlsMessageDocumentType process(com.kohls.is.soa.x09.meta.KohlsMessageDocumentType Message)
    KohlsMessageDocumentType message = null;
    message = new KohlsMessageDocumentType();
    MessageHeaderType        header = new MessageHeaderType();
    MessagePayloadType       payload = new MessagePayloadType();
    message.setHeader(header);
    message.setPayload(payload);
    return message;
}The only thing unusual here is that the @WLHttpTransport annotation overrides the context, but I don't see that as a problem.
Is there something simple I am missing here ? I guess I'm always surprised when Workshop cannot publish something it generates, but there is usually a reason - library setting or something.
I'd appreciate any advice !

Hi Ethan
I tested it using Workshop10.0Mp1 and didn't see any issue with publish.
Here are the steps I followed:
1) Create a default webservice project with default facets.(no ear)
2) Drop the business and meta folder and under project/src folder
3) Create a test package under src
4) Right click on the wsdl and choose generate webservice and create it under the test folder
5) Replace the process method implementation with the one you have here
6) Create a 10.0mp1 Workshop server (please make sure you create a workshop server and not wls server) and deploy the app to the server
I was able to run the webservice successfully.
Let me know if I am doing anything different from you.

Can I publish to Web-Gallery from several Macs?

We have several Macs in the (extended) family, all running iPhoto (iLife08 and Leopard). I have ONE .Mac account (family account; i.e. for 5 people).
Here are a few related questions:
1. Can each person publish to this one Web Gallery account?
2. Is each "publisher" the owner of this specific Album on the Gallery? Or is there a "master" owner?
3. How do I then control the sequence of the published albums?
4. I published a series of albums on the Web Gallery; then I had to switch iLibraries (because a single one became to big) with (commercially available) iPoto Libary Manager, now the once published series is no longer visible on the web.
Thanks for any pointers/answers/suggestions.
Cheers,
Veit

Velt:
1 -You can setup a web gallery so others can add photos to via a web browser and by email. Also they can subscribe to the gallery, i.e. download the photos to their library.
2 -You would be the controller of the gallery.
3 -You control the sequence of the published albums by arranging them in iPhoto in the order you want - in the left hand pane under Web Gallery. If you want just your extended family to have access then you can password/user name protect the galleries.
4 - the galleries should not be removed from online just because you opened a different library. Open the original library, go to the web gallery and bookmark it in your browser for access regardless of which library you're running. You can confirm that the galleries are still online by going to your iDisk/Web/Sites/-gallery folder and checking for the gallery folders there.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar.

Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Cannot see adobe web gallery on active website

I can see adobe web gallery in the dreamweaver test site and it is also visible and working on adobe bridge(where the gallery was created), however, when i upload it to my url it does not work. It tells me "http://designswithoutboundaries.com/Illustration%20Web%20Gallery/Illustrationwebgalleryind ex.html.
"404 error Page not found. Page as been removed, name changed or temporarily unavaible. Please try the following: if you typed the page address in the address bar click the back button in your brouser to try another link use a searcdh engine like google to for information on the internet". My path must be wrong but i don't know how to fix it. I have searched many pages on the web for help but I keep coming up empty. I, also, asked my hosting company, however, they told me they don't help with the design end and I should look for help from a design master. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You

It tells me "http://designswithoutboundaries.com/Illustration%20Web%20Gallery/Illus trationwebgalleryindex.html.
"404 error Page not found.
The link above is invalid. It needs a forward slash just before index.html.
Valid: http://designswithoutboundaries.com/Illustration%20Web%20Gallery/Illus trationwebgallery/index.html.
but does it go anywhere?
Break the link down into its component parts.
The link points to
Domain: designswithoutboundaries.com = CORRECT
Folder: Illustration = CORRECT
Folder: Illustration Web Gallery (%20 is a space). Is that correct?
Folder: Illustrationwebgallery Is that correct?
Page: index.html. Is that correct and does it exist on the server?

Cannot delete .mac web gallery albums

Strange thing has recently happened to me. I deleted two albums both from the album pane and under the web gallery pane in Iphoto but the albums have not been deleted from my .mac web gallery. Is there any way to sync iphoto and the web gallery so that the albums are deleted? In the past this has always happened automatically for me.

Mount your iDisk, go to the Web/Sites folder and delete the contents of the _gallery folder. That should do it.

Cannot post to Web Gallery from iPhone

Hello,
I recently bought a 16Gb iPhone and am loving it, I have however come across a small problem when sending pictures to my .Mac Web Gallery. I have several albums which are all password protected, one of which has the setting allowing users to post pictures. When trying to post a picture from the iPhone however, a message is displayed telling me that my Web Gallery has no shared albums. Has anyone come across this and is there something I'm missing?
Many thanks in advance.

Th'Duffer,

Unable to publish to web gallery

I cannot get passed the iPhoto 8 .mac login screen. I'm able to log in to .mac in the preferences and have a valid account.

I'm receiving the same issue. I haven't tried to upload a new gallery for awhile. The only change (although a big one) I've made to my system since was upgrading to Snow Leopard. I'm still running iPhoto '08 and my mobileme account is current.

Consistent colors when publishing JPG web gallery?

What is the best way to get the JPGs from my RAW-files to look the same (or close) in Firefox/Internet explorer as in Lightroom?
Do browsers accept embedded color profiles?
I know different people have different settings, but for starters I would like the JPGs to look the same on *my machine*! :-)
I know nothing about Color Policies, Color Management and the like and have not calibrated my monitor...

> What is the best way to get the JPGs from my RAW-files to look the same (or close) in Firefox/Internet explorer as in Lightroom?
Make sure the exported JPEG has been converted to the sRGB color space ...
> Do browsers accept embedded color profiles?
Some do -- most do not ...
> I know different people have different settings, but for starters I would like the JPGs to look the same on *my machine*! :-)
Appearing correct on your machine is somewhat dependent on the kind of machine you have -- you do not say(?) In any case, it will come down to the CM you employ ... which of your apps are CM-savvy ... and the color space your JPEGs are exported to.
Regarding other people's web browsers, you have absolutely no control ... but you can accept the fact that your imagery will look the way you want on "most" monitors if you export to sRGB.
> I know nothing about Color Policies, Color Management and the like and have not calibrated my monitor...
Your question is very much dependent on you educating yourself. You could stick to Lr, for which CM is entirely transparent but dependent on properly compensating for your monitor's color, as well as exporting solely to sRGB (a
de facto standard for "most" monitors), and CM will be simplified for you. However, most cameras are quite capable of more colors than be shown with you monitor or that can be contained within the sRGB gamut -- therefore, you will be missing some of the experience of color digital photography if you do not calibrate your monitor and delve a bit further into understanding "working" and "device" color spaces.
Although mostly associated with Photoshop, the late Bruce Fraser still has "out of gamut" tutorials located here:
http://www.creativepro.com/articles/author/127446
and his well-reccommended text, "Real World Color Management"

Cannot publish album to web gallery, nor to iweb

today, I tried publishing an album to my web gallery and iphoto "quit unexpectedly" then (after the relaunch), I tried going to preferences, which caused it to quit again. nothing I do seems to resolve this (I've restarted, and have also tried deleting the prefs file - numerous times).
then I tried to send the album to iweb - and iweb "quit unexpectedly" as well. even worse, now iWeb won't even launch! (keep getting the "quit unexpectedly" error. (I've tried deleting the prefs file for iweb and iapps as well, to no avail.)
otherwise, iphoto works fine - it's just when trying to send to iweb, publishing to web gallery, or accessing the preferences that it freezes (and quits).
the last time I tried coordinating these apps (and publishing to my web gallery) was a month ago, and everything worked perfectly. could this be related to a bug in a recent software update?
can anyone help me figure out what's wrong? I'm terribly frustrated...
thanks!

Thanks for the link, I just installed the update and rebooted. Unfortunately, the problem persists!
iWeb does not launch at all - I get an 'opening' message, then the "quit unexpectedly" error message appears. here's first part of the report:

(The irony here is that I used DreamWeaver/Photoshop/ftp upoaders to design and publish my previous sites and, as a new mom, thought I'd save time by taking advantage of Apple's seamless (albeit boxed) software to make a simple and easily-updatable photo site for my daughter. This was supposed to make my life easier! )
