Hi,
Can anyone please help me ,I try to upload my zip file and getting error "No
file was uploaded".

I explain the scenario :

I created a java servlet application.And for public url case i hosted on
webappcabaret.com. (i.e. running my application over there).And in config file i
have given the login.bp address.

So my application is running fine when i checked in browser (IE and Mozilla),but
while uploading to yahoo blueprint ,it is showing error "No file was uploaded".

So can anyone tell what can be the possible reasons for error.And what should i
do to avoid this error.

Please help as soon as possible.

Thank you...........urging for the urgent help....thanks again

Hi Balaji,
Before uploading packaged zip, Please ensure that

1. Your server is publicly accessible.
2. If you are using PHP, PHP is installed on your server.

If still issue persists, please let us know.
:)

Thanks!
Kush

When this error occurs it usually means that your server did not respond in a
timely manner and the request to your application timed out.

We can't reproduce the problem anymore and your mobile site shows up.

Right now you have to use the default (blue) color schemes that Blueprint offers
to you. We understand that this is one of the most important requests from
developers and are working on providing you that possibility.

Accessing the file system to select a file is also not yet possibile with the
current release of the platform. Please monitor this list and the blog at
http://mobile.yahoo.net/developer/blog for further updates.

Hi All

I am having trouble making the banner tag display images full screen width when
I set fill style to 'fill' as stated in the documentation. Additionally, if I
put the images in the submission zip, it will not display the images at all when
using the banner tag, it will only display images using the banner tag if I host
the images externally.

Can you confirm that images used in banner tags must be hosted externally? I
haven't found anything in the documentation that specifies this as a mandatory
requirement.

What image sizes should be used to make full screen width banners on screens
wider than the standard s5 devices, such as when viewed web browser or the
BlackBerry Bold. The documentation suggests 216x36 for s4 devices and 300x50 for
s5 devices. Does this mean that they should automatically be scaled up when
displayed on a BlackBerry 9000 (Bold) as this device has a screen width of 480
pixels? Is there another larger size for these new devices being planned? Say,
if I made images 600x100 would they scale down correctly for 'all' devices?

(NOTE: I have the 300x50 image works perfectly on an older device running Opera
mini)

Thanks.

my page was wrking fine till today bt now when i am trying to open my page
http://devtest-aasahaiasah22-helloworld22.bpapps.com/ an error shows :

Upload your ZIP

I guess I was talking about the future then. I am planning to develop a
standalone mobile app and was wondering whether Blueprint would be a good thing
to use.

For me it would be important, that the mobile app runs on the phone without the
need of additional software, the user has to download. I am aware that Yahoo
Mobile App is not yet available, but maybe someone has some more information
than I have.

Thanx
Jürgen

Hi,

Anyone who knows how to remove application in development from my blueprint
applications panel? I've searched through this group but No answer is there.

regards,
Surya IG

Is there any way to delete Apps in Development in Manage your Apps & Development
page in My Blueprint Apps site?

Any reply really appreciated

An another note you also need to make sure that you test your service either in
an PC browser (we recommend Firefox) or on a supported device (we recommend
here: iPhone, iPod Touch, Nokia S60 with Webkit browser).

As of today you can deploy your Blueprint service in two different ways:

1. Mobile Website
You can use the Blueprint 1.1 language specification to build a mobile website
that looks great across a wide range of devices. The Mobile Sites runtime will
support 4000+ different mobile devices by June/July this year. See our blog
announcement:
http://mobile.yahoo.net/developer/blog/2009/03/24/extended-device-coverage-for-b\
lueprint/

2. Mobile Widget for Yahoo! Go
Using the Blueprint 1.0 language specification you can build services to
integrate with Yahoo!'s popular Yahoo! Go software. The successor of Yahoo! Go,
the new Yahoo! Mobile application, will launch in May and will also support
Blueprint 1.1 features.

Using this deployment possibility the user will need to have Yahoo! Go (or later
the Yahoo! Mobile App) installed on their phone.

The Runtime for Mobile Apps is not yet available.

Please use the following URL to test your service:

http://devtest-pvimob-bp-sdk-test.bpapps.com/

Make sure that you don't have the "/--/fb/fallback..." part in the URL.

Hi,

as I learned from the documentation the Blueprint Mobile Runtime is required on
the user's phone for standalone application.
Can the runtime be distributed together with the application? Or will the
application not run unless the user download the runtime by himself?

Regards
Jürgen

Hi Mani,
can you post the XML code that you are using to display the header images?

When we tested your service, we did not receive a 404 error but the Blueprint
you created was invalid:

FATAL: Invalid Blueprint
Opening and ending tag mismatch: placard line 0 and layout-items

Please double-check your Blueprint XML code.

Widget developers,

For those of you who want to use ASP.NET instead of PHP (or native
XML) to write a Yahoo Blueprint Widget this might be a topic of
interest:

I've updated the ASP.NET-based framework to hack Yahoo Blueprint
Widgets (e.g. facebook go, Daily Dilbert, Naval Battle). This
framework now fully supports Blueprint 1.1.

Use the Visual Studio 2008 IDE (Express Editions are free as far as I
know) and handle the Blueprint Widget like an ASP.NET web site. Take
the advantages of IntelliSense code completion, see the blueprint
output at debug time for each blueprint component and deploy your
widgets with one click on your web server - to name some key
features.

All with your favourite .NET programming language like, VB.NET, C#,
J#, P#, Prolog.NET, Haskell.NET, IronPython, IronRuby,…

Check it out on http://www.bluuwi.com. Any kind of feedback is very
welcome! Have fun.

Best

Mark

Shishir,
right now you will have to use the HTTP-port 80 only. We will announce to the
list, once other ports than 80 are supported.

Is it supported? When we are try to access it, Yahoo returns error.

Please make sure that you send us the right content type. Right now we are
receiving from your servers:

"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8"

Make sure it is set to:
Content-Type: application/x-blueprint+xml
