This brings up a question that I've had for a while. When it is advantageous to use the album name?

Thanks, Cameron

Hi Guerra,

When using the album name in the feed URL directly there are certain constraints (no spaces, no utf-8 characters), so often times it is better to work with feeds by using the album ID instead of the name. If you do want to use the name, you can retrieve the album feed and take a look at the <gphoto:name> element in the album entry.

Cheers, -Jeff

I found out that when i used an album name without space in its name the script worked. I will make some tests and will report here.

Hi,

i'm writing a python script to upload photos to picasa.

It connects to the account, it creates an album, but when it starts to uplaod somethin i get this error:

content_type = 'image/jpg') File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gdata/photos/service.py", line 474, in InsertPhotoSimple content_type) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gdata/photos/service.py", line 430, in InsertPhoto converter=gdata.photos.PhotoEntryFromString) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gdata/service.py", line 642, in Post media_source=media_source, converter=converter) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gdata/service.py", line 716, in PostOrPut content_type='multipart/related; boundary=END_OF_PART') File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/atom/service.py", line 322, in HttpRequest __SendDataPart(data_part, connection) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/atom/service.py", line 344, in __SendDataPart connection.send(binarydata) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/httplib.py", line 711, in send self.sock.sendall(str) File "<string>", line 1, in sendall socket.error: (32, 'Broken pipe')

I even uploaded 1 photo once, but after i got this error and didnt change anything on the script.

Can anyone give me a clue of where i should start to look for the problem?

Thanks and best regards,
