Hi,

I've been using ubooquity for quite some time now, and I am globally pleased with what it does. I run ubooquity on a NAS (synology brand) and I give access to my library to friends and family.

Here is the feature I'd like: not all the content is fitted for all audiences, for example some comics are not proper for children (only because of explicit violence or strong language, no other reason ;-)

I would like to define profiles for users: profiles would grant access to part of the collection, and by assigning a profile to a user we could control what they can access or not.

Profiles could be defined in several ways. I place them in order of what I think is the simplest:

- a regex pattern on the name of the files

- listing folders to include/exclude in the profile

- querying on the metadata of the comics. I would recommend allowing queries (regex?) on 'genre', 'serie', 'title' fields at the very least

The next step after that is to modify ubooquity so that when a user logs in, it would display only the part of the collection that fits the criterias defined in the profile. I don't believe this to be very hard, but I don't know how this is encoded at the moment, so I could be wrong

i have reverse proxy enabled.. this works...

I have SSL/Keystore enabled... I can connect via https...

However.....

My tablet continually tries to download HTML/PHP... whatever the pages are....

Errors like this are plentiful:

20160723 16:33:06 [pool-1-thread-8] WARN com.ubooquity.e.e - Interrupted while sending response (perhaps the client stopped the download) - javax.net.ssl.SSLException - Connection has been shutdown: javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Unrecognized SSL message, plaintext connection?

https://my.Foo.bar:8555/comics/admin

Works as a URL.... and 'admin' tries downloading every few seconds....

I have a valid keystore ( or I wouldn't have an https connection?)

Am I missing something? (Android tablet trying t connect)

Hi,

When I click read on a comic I get a 504 timeout. Logs don't show anything.

`20160721 09:44:27 [pool-1-thread-1] INFO com.ubooquity.provider.page.a - Someone is reading`

Thanks,

I use ComicRack with the ComicVine scraper to tag and sort/rename all my comics, but one collection of mine, The Wicked + The Divine, displays the issue number and title, others only display the title. I'm not sure how to change it or why it's inconsistent if the naming and tags are correct (which they are). Here's a screenshot:

edit: oddly, if I search Ubooquity for "wicked" all the issues show properly tagged/formatted.

If I'm reading the instructions right, in order to have access to the public network I *need* to be able to do port forwarding in the router. If I only have access to Windows Firewall but not the router because I'm renting a room for the next two months I'll only have local access.

Is my understanding of this correct?

i have found some CBR files that ubooquity wont read....

Here is what I've found about them..

They appear to be 'RAR' 4 files using 'Solid' (??) Encoding/compressing.

The jUnrar 'kit' has issues unpacking these files...

(At least in 2011 they did.... https://github.com/edmund-wagner/junrar/issues/4

The only fix I've found is to unpack/repack files...

Has anyone else run across this?

On launching Ubooquity with a pre-existing preferences.xml file, xml error occurs:

javax.xml.bind.UnmarshalException

- with linked exception:
[org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; systemId: file:/D:/#DLApps/ubooquity/preferences.xml; lineNumber: 1; columnNumber: 1; Content is not allowed in prolog.]

This occurs even if no preferences have been changed.

It can be reproduced (reliably) by:

• On Windows Server 2012 R2 x64 + Java 8 Update 91 (32 bit):
• Launch Ubooquity version 1.10.1
• Ubooquity creates the preferences.xml
• Stop and Exit Ubooquity
• Launch Ubooquity again.
• On launch as Ubooquity loads the preferences.xml it just created, receive the error as above.

I can configure Ubooquity to scan and serve my files - and it works beautifully - but as soon as Ubooquity restarts for any reason, the above error is generated.

The error can be related to the BOM in a UTF-8 file, but not sure what I can do to influence that. Posting in Bugs, but willing to learn that this is an environmental issue that can be sorted in my config.

Thanks!

Is it possible or available via an extension to allow myself or another user to upload via the web interface? I could setup a samba share to my comic folder but if this is hidden somewhere it would save me some extra config and secondary access setup.

Hi, I just got my Sony 13.3" e-reader and it has troubles with ubooquity web interface.

I am trying to read comics, but everything works fine until the moment i open the actual comic files. The screen resolution is 1600x1200px, so the original size is in the most of the cases too big (as you can imagine, I can see only a peace of the page). The interesting part is when I press "fit width", it only fits width and, as you probably guessed, with the "height" option only the latter is fitted. Is it possible to implement a third option, so that the image is fitted proportionately?

When Ubooquity imports a new issue, it would be great for there to be an extract page option where the first image/page of an issue would be extracted into the comic folder.

If this option were available, comic readers such as Challenger Viewer could be set to look for cover files instead of having to download the entire comic file to extract the art itself.

This would be a very efficient method for importing a Ubooquity/OPDS database, especially for large databases.
