Thanks. Actually my users log in via LDAP. So the user records are cerated in the 'users' tabel as soon as they correclty log in for the first time. But the pictureurl is invalid. I don't want each user to upload their own pictures (they can do so if they wish but I'd like their default picture to be loaded).
So maybe I could use the http://openmeetings.apache.org/FileService.html calls to "update" a user's profile picture... --- On Tue, 2/5/13, seba.wag...@gmail.com <seba.wag...@gmail.com> wrote: From: seba.wag...@gmail.com <seba.wag...@gmail.com> Subject: Re: profile picture url To: user@openmeetings.apache.org Date: Tuesday, February 5, 2013, 3:08 AM If you plan to login external users with their own profile pic the best way would be to do the via the REST/SOAP API. Almost any SOAP/REST call contains the pictureUri as parameter for the setUserObjectXYZ... call: http://openmeetings.apache.org/UserService.html There is some simple sample PHP script that does login some random user into OpenMeetings (even with a profile pic): http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openmeetings/trunk/plugins/facebook_connect/test.php Sebastian Sebastian 2013/2/5 Vieri <rentor...@yahoo.com> Is there a way to do this on the OM server directly without user/client intervention? I'd like to do a script which takes the OM user ID as input and searches its picture in a custom database and uploads/copies it to the OM server to the appropriate user profile directory. Is there already a way to do this? thanks, Vieri --- On Tue, 2/5/13, Maxim Solodovnik <solomax...@gmail.com> wrote: From: Maxim Solodovnik <solomax...@gmail.com> Subject: Re: profile picture url To: "user" <user@openmeetings.apache.org> Date: Tuesday, February 5, 2013, 2:38 AM you should upload picture by updating user profile (this is the only option I know) On Tue, Feb 5, 2013 at 2:35 PM, Vieri <rentor...@yahoo.com> wrote: I'm not sure if the pictureurl field in table 'users' can be set to something like http://myserver.com/pictures/user_id.jpeg ? I suppose not... I believe the picture must be uploaded to the OM server "upload" directory. Is that right?

Sebastian 2013/2/5 Vieri <rentor...@yahoo.com> Hi, Are jpeg pictures allowed/supported for the user profile? gif images seem to work but no luck for me with jpeg.
