BookLibary Component Support

Hiya

I've just installed BookLibrary on a new site but refetch using amazon.co.uk webservice is making it freak out. I get the following error. Any thoughts much appreciated

Please ask yours host provider set:

In php.ini
allow_url_fopen = On

Hi there.

I just purchased BookLibrary Pro, installed it, and am getting the same problem with trying to have the system fetch book info. I have tried fetching the data from Amazon.com and Amazon.ca with the same failure.

I checked the php.ini file that was on my webhost and it already had the line in it:

allow_url_fopen = On

(It was also not commented out so it should have been working.)

I copied the php.ini file and placed a copy of it in components/com_booklibrary but that didn't make any difference.

Any suggestions for how to get fetching book data to work?

Thanks.

Hi Paul

Check your AWS Access Key and Amazon Secret Key. I thought I had mine correctly but I replaced them with new ones from Amazon to check and it started working after that.

I think, although I am probably totally wrong, that the keys were updated so older ones don't work any more.

Good luck!

Thanks Sarah -- that was the trick that fixed it! I guess I just had to make sure the backend setup included my correct Amazon AWSAccessKeyId and Amazon Secret Key.

It works like it should now.
