XPoster and Dreamhack

[draigwen]

Sorry to always be posting with problems!

I'm trying to get the crossposter working on my Dreamhack. It took a bit of hunting around but I finally worked out how to turn on the XPost worker, but it's still not working.

Running the XPost worker in Verbose mode I just get:

TheSchwartz::work_once found no jobs

My dreamhack gave me the error:

Failed to crosspost to draigwen@Dreamwidth. You may go here to attempt to crosspost this entry again.

Is there anything else I need to get it working, or anywhere I can look to find out why it's not working?

Cheers

You may want to take a look at your TheSchwartz tables (some info here) to make sure that they're set up properly. The XPostWorker reads from those tables, so if the configuration for those isn't correct, then the worker won't ever get any jobs.

(Actually, if you're getting an error in the UI immediately, rather than as an inbox notification, then you're certainly having something go wrong before the XPostWorker would come into play...)

Yeah, that helped, thanks. Because the dreamhack specific instructions didn't mention having to create the tables I kinda assumed they were all created. Thanks for the tip!
