Jowi Pictures random

[w.vuyk]

The link you posted seems to be wrong: http://192.168.1.242:83\http\Jowi_Pi...\EETopMain.jpg ?
It should have been http://192.168.1.242:83/Jowi_Picture.../EETopMain.jpg. Without the extra HTTP in between.
The name of the EETopMain can be changed through the ini file if you wish.

Thanks for the prompt reply.
Getting the same result with the link you suggested 404 Bad Request: /Jowi_PictureRandom/EETopMain.jpg

Furthermore I can't find the name EETop in the settings file. Maybe this file was corrupted somehow. Here it is

[Settings] ' ' Set PictureDirectory to the root of the directory holding original pictures ' PictureDirectory=C:\Program Files (x86)\HomeSeer HS3\Pictures ' ' WebDirectory should hold the name of the directory HSTouch will be accessing ' to show the resized picture. ' The path to the HTML directory of HS is determined by the script itself. ' If this directory does not exist, it will be created for you. ' ' If you use an different webserver then HS, you will have to edit the script (set _pathOutputImage) ' WebDirectory=JOWI UseAlbums=False AlbumSelectRef= [Displays] Picture=766,1022

Sorry the forum lost the formatting of the file. Can't send it as an attachment as Forum doesn't allow .ini files to be uploaded.

Try using http://192.168.1.242:83/Jowi_PictureRandom/Picture.jpg?

Here is the .ini file in better to view format. What puzzles me is that I can't see "EETop" I never touched or modified this file.
Jowi.txt

It has been in the ini file for myself long time ago. The lines have been changed in this ini, wich does not matter really, but you have to adjust the links accordingly.

• The web directory in this ini file has been changed from "Jowi_PictureRandom" to "JOWI" in this ini file (missed it earlier)
• The picture name has been changed to "Picture"

PictureDirectory=C:\Program Files (x86)\HomeSeer HS3\Pictures
'
' WebDirectory should hold the name of the directory HSTouch will be accessing
' to show the resized picture.
' The path to the HTML directory of HS is determined by the script itself.
' If this directory does not exist, it will be created for you.
'
' If you use an different webserver then HS, you will have to edit the script (set _pathOutputImage)
'
WebDirectory=JOWI <==== page link for browser
UseAlbums=False
AlbumSelectRef=

[Displays]
Picture=766,1022 <===== filename of the jpg file

This means the script will have created a subdirectory called "JOWI" under the html directory in your HS installation directory. Here you should find the generated jpg file.

The correct link to the picture should thus be: http://192.168.1.242:83/JOWI/Picture.jpg. Watch the capital letters here, they have to match the INI file

This worked !!!! Thanks a lot.

I have no idea how it happened and who messed with this file. Maybe I copied from somewhere but when and how and why? Total mystery. Maybe it emerged somehow from my previous JOWI Pictures script for HS2 bit this one was on a different machine. Anyhow. What ends good is good. Thanks for the prompt responses and for the support.
