Group notices 0.1.8 RC2

Hello <img src=\"{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"Smile\" />

i have installed Com_opensim (awesome piece of software) and changed everything in opensim.ini to the url\'s for interface.php
Everything seems to work fine with groups, except that i cant send group notices.
Is this a common problem?, or am i doing something wrong?

Notices is greyed out in the group screen.. they are set to true in opensim.ini

Hi Samuel and welcome to our forum <img src=\"{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"Smile\" />

Until now I did not get any other report about this issue. What version of OpenSim are you running on? (Note: 0.7.0.1 is not 0.7.1).

I\'m not 100% sure what exactly is greyed out. Do you mean the tab on top (#1 in the screenshot of my Meerkat) or the \"Create New Notice\" Button (#2)?

In any case, if you are not owner of the group, you must have a role selected, where you can read (for an enabled top tab) or send (for the create new notice button) group notices.

Hey <img src=\"{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"Smile\" />

Well it seems to clear up a bit now, on a new AV with no groups, the notices works.
On my AV i still have some old Flotsam groups in the list, and made a new one through your group app, the new one has the notices greyed out, the flotsam wont work ofcourse <img src=\"{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"Smile\" />

This is defo my own fault, and has nothing to do with your software, sorry for any inconvience.
But maybe you can do something with this info for future support issues having this problem.

See picture.. the button notices is not clickable.

Hello

This issue returned, somehow all groups cant use notices they all show like the picture i posted earlier.
In the opensim.ini it set to this
[Groups]
Enabled = true

; This is the current groups stub in Region.CoreModules.Avatar.Groups. All the other settings below only really
; apply to the Flotsam/SimianGrid GroupsModule
;Module = Default

; This module can use a PHP XmlRpc server from the Flotsam project at <a class=\"postlink\" href=\" code.google.com/p/flotsam/\ "> code.google.com/p/flotsam/
; or from the SimianGrid project at <a class=\"postlink\" href=\" code.google.com/p/openmetaverse\ "> code.google.com/p/openmetaverse
Module = GroupsModule

; Enable Group Notices
NoticesEnabled = true

; This makes the Groups modules very chatty on the console.
DebugEnabled = false

; Specify which messaging module to use for groups messaging and if it\'s enabled
MessagingModule = GroupsMessagingModule
MessagingEnabled = true

; Service connectors to the Groups Service. Select one depending on whether you\'re using a Flotsam XmlRpc backend or a SimianGrid backend

; SimianGrid Service for Groups
;ServicesConnectorModule = SimianGroupsServicesConnector
;GroupsServerURI = <a class=\"postlink\" href=\" mygridserver.com:82/Grid/\ "> mygridserver.com:82/Grid/

; Flotsam XmlRpc Service for Groups
ServicesConnectorModule = XmlRpcGroupsServicesConnector
GroupsServerURI = <a class=\"postlink\" href=\"http://myinternalip/osim/components/com_opensim/interface.php\">http://myinternalip/osim/components/com ... erface.php

Not sure whats going wrong, could someone help me with this?

Hi Samuel

In the [Groups] section of OpenSim.ini there are usually also 2 lines like:These values must match the last 2 values in the Global Configuration of the component (Addon -> Group ReadKey & Group WriteKey). Is this the case?

Hey

Sorry for my late reaction, but the security keys are correct on both sides, its strange but the notices are not clickable.

I thought i upgrade to the new version but then the following error appears on my opensim console.

An error has occured while attempting to access the XmlRpcGroups server method groups.getAgentGroupMembership at <a class=\"postlink\" href=\"http://myinternalip/site/components/com_opensim/interface.php\">http://myinternalip/site/components/com ... erface.php
2011-05-13 13:01:32,299 ERROR - OpenSim.Region.OptionalModules.Avatar.XmlRpcGroups.XmlRpcGroupsServicesConnectorModule [XMLRPC-GROUPS-CONNECTOR]: Root element is missing. at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Throw(Exception e)
at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ThrowWithoutLineInfo(String res)

Hmmm, that\'s really strange ...

... and you\'re sure that you havein your OpenSim.ini?

What happens, if you enter the url of your interface.php in your browser and addto it?
(e.g. <a class=\"postlink\" href=\"http://myinternalip/osim/components/com_opensim/interface.php?test=getgroup\">http://myinternalip/osim/components/com ... t=getgroup for the example above)

did that url test.
the outcome...

Array
(
[succeed] => false
[error] => Group Not Found
[params] => array (
\'GroupID\' => \'7b067a22-1be9-4059-9205-ffae898670a3\',
)
[sql] => SELECT
jos_opensim_group.GroupID,
jos_opensim_group.Name,

OwnerRoleID,
COUNT(jos_opensim_grouprole.RoleID) as GroupRolesCount,
COUNT(jos_opensim_groupmembership.AgentID) as GroupMembershipCount
FROM jos_opensim_group
LEFT JOIN jos_opensim_grouprole ON (jos_opensim_group.GroupID = jos_opensim_grouprole.GroupID)
LEFT JOIN jos_opensim_groupmembership ON (jos_opensim_group.GroupID = jos_opensim_groupmembership.GroupID)
WHERE
jos_opensim_group.GroupID = \'7b067a22-1be9-4059-9205-ffae898670a3\'
GROUP BY

jos_opensim_group.Name,
Charter,
InsigniaID,
FounderID,

OpenEnrollment,
ShowInList,

this output is as expected and tells me that interface.php is working correct ... hmmm

The values in OpenSim.ini are correct?
