API Down? GetImageInfo...

Kevin L. Kitchens

Been working until about 2 hours ago. Now my calls to GetImageInfo are failing after timeout. Hitting v1.1.0 of the API. My pages that rely on the API are taking forEVER to load because of this.

Any ETA on being back up?

Hi Kevin,

I'm looking into the issue...and just wanted confirm whether you are using xml-rpc or rest ?

Also, can you please look at upgrading to a newer version of the api, as we will be most likely deprecating 1.1.0 (and potentially 1.1.1) this year.

Cheers,

David

xml-rpc 1.1.0 appears to be working for me....as does your site

Yes, I can look into the upgrade. I'm use the REST I believe, using the smugmugapi for C# that was created a couple of years ago. It just always works unless the system is down.

My site is "working" because I recompiled the API dll to just skip the call. I needed to get to bed and didn't want the site "down".

FYI, just confirmed that it's still failing.

Can you please give me some ImageIDs that it's failing on ?

Has failed on these:

779061579_GYqSs
779061590_zd8du
779061617_GBGdb
779061643_B5EJY
779061680_j5bSs

Agan, was working just fine until about 11:30 last night and then with no changes on this side, it just started failing. I thought it was my DB, so I lost a lot of time trying to do DB maintenance and nothing worked so I checked the source code and saw that the call the SmugMugAPI was failing completely.

So either it's down or something changed without warning on the server.

Sorry, it's XMLRPC, not REST

XmlRpcUrl("http://api.smugmug.com/hack/xmlrpc/1.1.1/")

[XmlRpcMethod("smugmug.images.getInfo")]
ImageInfo GetImageInfo(string sessionID, int imageID);

Yes, just tried and all is good.

What is he URL to the spec for the current API so I can adjust my class?

Thanks!
