Hello,
I've been running gallery 3 for a few months now (RC2 edition) and it has been working great. However I've just noticed that the slideshow feature has stopped working.

I've looked at a few other sites - e.g. http://www.312mm.com/ - and I see similar behaviour. When you click on the play button you get the 'cooliris' message but nothing happpens.

Has something changed with the integration with the colliris site, or is there anything I can do to try and resolve the isssue?

Thanks very much in advance

Same problems here ... may be that cooliris blocked their plugin?

I'm testing latest gallery-gallery3-3.0-rc-2-336-g38be33e

It seems that they url has changed. I traced the request and the slideshow is calling
http://e.cooliris.com/slideshow/v/30494/textLayout_4.0.0.10485.swz

which seems to now lead to a 404

Yep, it's borked. I just emailed the CoolIris folks to see if they can fix the issue.

I managed to get the slideshow up and running by reverting to the old version - if you revert the changes in this commit it starts to work:

http://github.com/gallery/gallery3/commit/5808ba48c8e5e212571ebd03e874a386dae92786

Hope this helps in the meantime.

No need to modify the code. Just install and activate the "Slideshow Ex" module, deactivate the "Slideshow" module. It has the same effect.

I preferred the "Slideshow" module though, because it didn't overlay the thumbnails over the bottom of the image in the non-fullscreen mode.

FYI, this is a widespread issue: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/723378?tstart=0
I'm in touch with CoolIris and we're talking about solutions.

Yup, same problem here. We see a 404 NOT FOUND looking for textLayout_4.0.0.10485.swz on e.cooliris.com. I found the file somewhere else, copied all the .js files to my own server, redirected everything... No more 404's, but it didn't load a slideshow. Just sits spinning its wheels.
