I installed for the first time last night and I get the same error message as Sam Womack and Mike. I was able to get 1 of 73 pictures uploaded. The status bar continues to creep and show that all have been exported.

The program looks great and will be a welcome addition to my workflow.

I had a client with the issue and this procedure seemed to fix it for him:

LOGOUT of Smugmug from inside of LR. Basically, you want the Smugmug export plugin to FORGET who you are.

Go to Smugmug and CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD

Now, try to login again using the LR exporter. In his case, it worked 100%! 🙂

I must have done something to offend the randomness then… so far restarting, rebooting, reinstalling the plugin hasn’t helped and thus I have not uploaded a single file to SM from LR. 🙁

Are you using LR2 beta as well, vrvince?

Yes Minhtam, I am using LR2 Beta.
Before upgrading the plugin, I was occasionally successful, though sometimes getting the “Result Body is Nil” error which Jeffrey said, in May 20th comment, may be a timeout error because of too-large files. My files were seldom over 5MB, so hope that’s not a permanent limit (could be LR, Smugmug, and/or plugin issue?: many links in the chain.)
Anyway, can’t complain too much about about a Beta, and a free plugin.

Invaluable tool!
The latest version smugmug-20080613.45.zip, however, seems to be cutting my internet connection out… I just reverted to the old version and see if it’s really the culprit. Using 1.41 on OS X.

……..or maybe it’s just cos I restarted LR..?

Time will tell

Great product used regularly but I now but I now seem to have the dreaded Formatmessage W failed error running the current version (45) on Win XP-SP2 and LR1.4.1.

I have the debug files and it seems that just before it stops (ie after the last successful “post”) it does a smugmug .subcategories.getAll call and just stops.

Would the debug files be of any use?

With Lightroom 2 Beta, I get an “Result body is nil” error when trying to upload to Smugmug any ideas? I have the latest release.

This is comperable to the FormatMessageW issue on 1.x, and essentially means that the images that you’re trying to upload are too big to be uploaded before Windows times out your Internet connection.

I’m not sure how much this can be addressed in 2.0, except that I will work to make the error reporting more meaningful. —Jeffrey

…..how embarrassing…

I discovered the answer about an hour after posting the comment – the “something really stupid” label has come back to haunt me!

In my defence (if there is one!) it’s that I thought that “original” refered to the “original format” (i.e. size or compression) rather than “original photo”…

Oops.

Thanks for getting back to me Jeffrey (see above) – and thanks for the plugin: hugely enhances both Lightroom and SmugMug – you really should be getting a cut from the latter!!

Great plugin; I use it all the time, thanks!

I just noticed a possible problem with keyword exports. LR has an option for keywords that specifies that they not be included with export; I use this to tag photos with certain things (e.g., in-progress) that don’t make sense when exported to the world. I think that the SmugMug (and maybe the Flickr too?) exporter includes these private keywords. Can this be fixed? Thanks!

It’s a bug in LR 1.x. It should work properly in the 2.0 beta (I think), and in the real 2.0 whenever it comes out. —Jeffrey

Any sort of ETA for an update that supports the new “upload any file, especially RAW” feature of smugmug? I tried uploading CR2 (Canon RAW format) files with the current release and it complains about not being able to figure out the file’s MIME type and aborts.

…then you released the 20080702 version and my results were (I emailed this to you a few days ago but I guess it slipped past):

The upload goes swimmingly until the last image… at that point, my network activity meter (outbound) goes to 0. After some time, I get a dialog box that says “timed out”. Oh, just got a new one:

“Error response from SmugMug:
wrong format ()

Aborting after 0 of images successfully uploaded”

I varied the number of selected photos and it always hangs on the last one. The network meter shows outbound activity for all the photos up to the last one.
…

Of the six images I attempted to upload, one of them did partially make it but apparently not intact enough for smugvault’s browser to recognize it as a known file type, or something (the indicators are vague at best).

I don’t know what to say… that failure mode doesn’t ring a bell, and I can’t test it myself. )-: —Jeffrey

Hi!

Got a little feature request for you. Could we have an option to automatically set the subfolder name for local copies of files to match the name of the gallery photos are uploaded to?

That would save a little bit of typing 🙂

Thanks for a great plug-in, Jeffrey!

The “save local copy” feature will actually go away in the 2.0 version, because it’s built into Lightroom. FWIW, You’ll be able to automatically set the upload destination based upon the file’s Lightroom folder, though. —Jeffrey

Hi again, I’ve sorted it!
Thanks for the great plug-in.

The {State} token does not work (Vista w/ SP1) for the newest plugin 20080714.47.
Even if I just use {State}, it doesnt work.
Anyone else seeing this?

After reading through the above I think it’s great what you have done. I’m guessing that in order to use this feature you need to have an active account versus a trial period. Is this a corect assumption?
