Has everyone else found that the media silos "just work" in .4? Or is
there something more to do, other than activating the plugins, before
using them? I have enabled both the simple file and flickr silos, but
both of them give me the same result. When I click to open either, the
silo section expands as it should, but rather than see any files, all
I get is a link to Root that does nothing. The authorization for
flickr went as expected, and my habari now shows up in the flickr
accounts as being connected.
A possible hangup, as it has caused problems before, is that I am
running this on Solaris. I'm just looking for more information about
what should be happening before I persue it further.
I haven't used the flickr silo, but with the simple file silo I've
found that I need to manually create a 'files' directory under the
user directory in order for uploads to work. After I do, I can upload
to that one directory (I've used images), and place the image in my
post by double-clicking on the image.
A patch has been submitted for the simple file silo to create/change
directories, but it hasn't been incorporated into the plugin yet.

I tried that rick. After creating a files directory in user, I get the
same result. I even tried it with the permissions set to 777 to rule
out any sort of error there. I still have no ability to upload and I
can't see images that I dropped in that folder.

Hmm, that's hard to debug. Are you using Firefox? Do you have Firebug installed? If the answer to those questions is yes, can you see the request being made in the console? What's the response?
I've never used Firebug before, but just installed it. I'm not exactly
sure what I'm looking at, but hopefully this helps. I opened Firebug
and then clicked to open the silo. This line appeared in the Firebug
console in red.

What you're looking at here is the communication between your browser and the server. Basically, the Habari JavaScript in the browser is asking Habari on the server what it should display for the silo.

The Response tab should change to some JSON that tells Habari's JavaScript what to display. If it stays at "Loading..." then it isn't getting an answer back from the server. It's happening for both Flickr and the Simple File Silo, so it's not your Flickr credentials.
I'm at a bit of a loss without getting my hands on your system. Devs, any ideas?

Thank you, I created one, but I am still unable to do anything
I ftp'd a txt file and a image into the files folder, but neither show
up, all I have now is a root link that does nothing...
No option to upload etc...

The trick being that the "500" at the end of that URL is not part of
the URL, but the response from the server. An error response, one
that is a server error, not a Habari error.
My advice is to check your Apache error log and see if there's
anything in there for when you try to access the silo.

Do you mean you don't get any content returned when you click on a silo? What version of Habari are you using? What silos have you tried? If you're trying the Simple File Silo, does the /user/files directory exist?
sorry for the previous bit of laziness, its been a long day at work .. problem fixed, explanations and related note below.
explanations:
I installed latest stable version, ie 0.4.1, activated silo plugins youtube (0.1), local files (1.0) and flickr (1.0 + authorized it without any problem), but then when clicking on each silo the only thing i got was a useless root link and nothing else. Pretty much everything described by -sparkx-, including trying to create the user/files directory, setting a 777 chmod on it and firebug debugging (Ajax Response : Loading...)
So I looked at my error log :PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function json_encode() in /opt/nginx/html/hwto/system/classes/adminhandler.php on line 1255
I have php 5.2.1 installed but php -i tells me "--enable-json=shared" and a quick look at php.ini later, yes the extension is missing, so added "extension=json.so", restarted and now it (kind of, see below) works.
For the record, I'm on a Joyent Accelerator opensolaris box, so if you're like me (sparkx?) be sure to check your php.ini
ps. related note, would be nice to warn about the user/files directory creation requirement, maybe the info is already somewhere but I've yet to come accross it..
otherwise, works like a charm now, and habari is amazing :P

Good to see you got it working, and thanks for the explanation. We currently check that several modules are enabled, but json is not one of them. I've opened a ticket.

You're definitely right. Some fine tuning of the Simple File Silo is on our radar, and there's a ticket open for this particular issue too.
