Logging In From Client Fails.
I am testing statusnet on a couple of sites. I have two installations with virtually identical configurations: one on bluehost and one on GoDaddy. When I connect to the GoDaddy one from a client (e.g., Adium and qtwitter) the login doesn't work. It keeps asking me to re-enter my credentials. The bluehost site works fine with both clients.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?I'm wondering whether GoDaddy is properly respecting mod-rewite rules. Do StatusNet fancy URLs work for you okay on GoDaddy? If not, you might try changing your API endpoint from:
http://yoursite/api
to
http://yoursite/index.php/api -
Inappropriate?Zach,
Thank you for the quick reply.
Yes, fancy URLs work. I can get to my account page by going to http://mysite/mypath/myusername.

Inappropriate?Sure!
Is there anything that might give us a lead in your logs? And by logs I mean, both your StatusNet log and your HTTP server logs. -
Inappropriate?Oddly enough, it appears that GoDaddy doesn't allow me to see my server logs (which is one of many reasons I don't use them for much any more). Where do I find my StatusNet log?
-
Inappropriate?What? That's real crazy. :)
By default StatusNet sends logging message to syslog, but you can configure it to send logging to a file of your choosing.
$config['site']['logfile'] = '/path/statusnet.log'; -
Inappropriate?Okay, I created the file "statusnet.log," set its permissions to "666," and added that line to my config.php file. I tried logging in--both through a client and on the site--with bad info and nothing was written to the log file. Am I doing something wrong?
-
Inappropriate?/api/account/verify_credentials.xml should definitely log the username and IP on failure. You're not seeing that?
-
Inappropriate?I never got this to work with GoDaddy, but I solved the problem another way. I don't think any of this is the fault of the StatusNet software. I'm pretty sure it was a host-specific issue.
I’m relieved
-
Inappropriate?Zach, it's because GoDaddy runs its PHP through CGI, and basic authentication isn't working well with it.
This is a known bug in StatusNet. http://status.net/trac/ticket/1832 I believe there's a fix here: http://gitorious.org/statusnet/mainli...
I'm pretty sure it's in 0.8.2 release, coming in the next day or so.
