Owncloud - a new open source way for us to access dropbox!

Check out http://owncloud.org/ it is a new open source cloud service.
The client code and all is open source and it has a lot of nice feats.

But one of the better features is that you can mount dropboxes inside ownshare so it's a nice way to potentially use dropbox from an amiga!

Now, who will port the client? :)

So try http://www.unsatisfactorysoftware.co.uk/download.php?file=webdavh

(I'd try it myself but I don't have time at the moment)

Note the examine functionality is a bit broken in that version, so sub-directories might not work, but if you stick to the root you should be ok.

great if I can use box.net.

btw, TheAmigaOne is working on a cloud client for OS4.1 as well.

You guys might also check out AlexC's port of the S3Cmd python that
lets you access Amazon and other cloud services...

Hmm, it's another one which only works in beta2, need to figure this out...



Beta2 is here: http://www.openamiga.org/?function=viewfiles&projectid=63

edit I'm beginning to suspect neon doesn't like the latest version of libssl
edit2 right, I've rebuilt neon and it is now working with SSL again. I'll upload a new beta when I've implemented the new examine packets (although when that'll be is anybody's guess). Until then, please use beta2 and ignore beta3.

Cool! Does it work for dropbox?

I just tried your webdav handler with dropdav,
When rrying to access dav0: it just stalls..?

Are you using beta2? (from openamiga.org)

If you aren't, use it!

If you are, capture the debug output as it might explain what the problem is.

yepp i am, it halts when i try to acces dav0: maybe you could try dropdav?
it's free for a limited time.

Can you email me the debug output? Remove any usernames/passwords in it of course.

if i knew where to find it.. i get nothing on my screen atleast...
the best thing would be if you registered on dropdav tried it out.. you might find a bg or two?

@spotUP

Register for dropdav and dropbox. I don't have time for that right now!

The log goes to the normal debug port, so dumpdebugbuffer should show it.

ok here's what i found in the log chris:


url proto = http
proto = http
ext url = http://my@email.com:mypassword@htts://dav.dropdav.com:80/
mu@email.com:mypassword
host: htts port: 0 path: //dav.dropdav.com%3a80/

You have your URL set wrong in the mountlist tooltypes.

I suspect it should be:
http://my@email.com:mypassword@dav.dropdav.com

But it might need to be https instead.

ACTIVATE=1
STARTUP=URL https://my@mail.com:mypasswd@dav.dropdav.com:80 NAME WebDAV

i now have it like this, and it works a bit better indeed.
i get a volume on my wb, but it says:
DAV0:Uninitialized

the log says:


url proto = https
proto = https
ext url = https://my@mail.com:mypassword@dav.dropdav.com:80/
my@mail.com:mypassword
host: dav.dropdav.com port: 80 path: /

Is it really https and port 80?
Try either http or remove the :80, not both!

Oh, i removed port 80 and now it WORKS!
I can access my dropbox from my Amiga! =)

BUT... it's terribly slow..

i removed https and added port 80 back and it still works, i hoped it would be quicker but nope.

Unfortunately the Amiga filesystem overhead means it has to make quite a lot of excess server calls.

When I finally rewrite the directory scanning stuff it might improve it.

Remember not to write to any directories as it has a tendency to not work or (worst case) destroy them - stick to the root until I get that fixed.
