Tasker Can't capture a photo... - Maybe a bug?

[Mr Dini]

Hi,

I wanted to take a picture on my Android 5.1 phone, using Tasker's Take photo function. But it says the following:

00.24.55/E start proxy CameraProxy, wait, time limit 12s
00.24.55/E add wait type Proxy Group time 12
00.24.55/E add wait type Proxy Group done
00.24.55/E set proxy: true (startProxy)
00.24.55/E add wait task
00.25.01/E Error: 1

I also tried the JavaScript. It didn't give me an error, but the picture didn't appeared...

What Can I do?

Many thanks!

PS: I have the latest Tasker installed.

Try changing some of the parameters (reducing resolution etc). Uncheck Discrete.
Check Tasker has photo and storage permissions in Android Settings.

I tried all resolutions, unfortunately not helped... The discrete is unchecked.

It Can write to the Internal storage, I tested it with a write file task, and successfull. And the camera permission also granted, as I Can see at the (Android) Settings->Applications->User->Tasker. It has the use camera function.

It looks like the Tasker Can't wait too much for the picture.

Oh, that was a big user error, sorry!

I misunderstood the File name textbox, and inserted here a path. But now, with only a filename given, works like a charm!

Thanks!

Should work with a path too, if the path is valid and writeable.

The path (Tasker/testpicture) is valid and writeable, I tested it. Or I have to specify the full path?

Sorry, I'm wrong, the Take Picture action puts the picture in DCIM/Tasker, that's
why only a filename should be entered.
