SuperContainer by 360 Works

Hello, I am unable to get a "script trigger" to fire when adding a file to a SuperContainer field. Is this possible? Thanks, Jeff

Hello, Is there a place on the 360 works website to get the tar file for the mac version of the SC plugin? Thanks, John

I am setting up my first document lib using SuperContainer. I am getting this message The specified action is denied by the server. whenever I drag and drop a file. The base file is FM Starting Point and I have set up the SuperContainer per their instructions. thanks, Jim

Hello this is my first post i hope you can help me with my problem. i have a layout with 10 webviewers and when a do zoom on that layout the SuperContainer looks really bad, some one know why is happenin this? I have SC v.2.77, FMA 11

We are hosting SuperContainer on server which is at WAN address 66.208.251.86 My hosting path is http://localhost:8020/SuperContainer/Files If there are uses the remote in, do I use the local host address or the WAN address. Thanks Scott

I have been using SuperContainer for some time with no troubles. Now my FileMaker databases are not seeing the SuperContainer URL. When I try and access the standard url of 127.0.0.1/SuperContainer using Safari on my web server I get the error: The request URL /SuperContainer was not found on this server. I have validated it is there, as are all of my files (whew). I have checked permissions for the Shared directory with SuperContainer directory in it and I think all looks fine, though I am not sure what they should be. It is running on an Apple Xserve with Server OS 10.5.8. I ran Disk Utility and repaired permissions. I downloaded the latest SC versi…

I have showSaveDialog enabled. When using the filename flag, I can set the file name but the file extension is getting stripped and I have to type it in manually for every file I save; a big PITA! The documentation says to "be sure to include your file extension", which I have. Help! - dg

How do I "Insert File" problematically rather than by browsing. Thanks Scott

What is the exact syntax if you want to set a Flag to the SCDownload function. The ones I tried gave an error when saving the variable, e.g. SCDownload( $folderPath ; showSaveDialog )

Hopefully there’s a simple answer to this… I’ve only been using SuperContainer for a few months, and I’ve got our solution working pretty well, but I’m having problems with the security features. (Everything works fine if security isn’t turned on, and I’m running 2.77 on the server and as a plugin) For the following examples, assume I’ve activated the security on the server, with the username ‘name’ and the password ‘pw’. I’ve got a script that sets the base URL on startup, trying to include the username and password as follows: Set Variable [$result; Value: SCSetBaseURL ("http://name:[email protected]:8020/SuperContainer/Files") OR Set V…

I recently upgraded my computer from Windows Vista to Windows 7. I must now re-deploy SuperContainer, which I had been using quite successfully. I downloaded the latest version of SuperContainer (2.77), moved the files to an unzipped file, and clicked on "SuperContainerServer.jar". I get the following error message: "Cannot run SuperContainer Server: java.lang.runtimeexception: logging directory is not writeable, please verify that the Files folder is in a folder SuperContainer can write to." I'm not quite sure what this means. Any thoughts?

Our fmsa server is on a virtual machine. Our users have mapped drives to file servers that have fairly robust backups. Can we store our on the mapped drives that are not of the fm server machine?

Hi, I'm seeing these errors in the Supercontainer window on FM Server. "11/3/10 5:16:32 PM - An error occurred while generating a thumbnail for /Volumes/SGI/Images/SuperContainer PAWS Images/2001/01-H078/W0044/1/W0044.jpg, returning full-size image Could not resize /Volumes/SGI/Images/SuperContainer PAWS Images/2001/01-H078/W0044/1/W0044.jpg; java.io.IOException: Image was null 11/3/10 5:17:27 PM - An error occurred while generating a thumbnail for /Volumes/SGI/Images/SuperContainer PAWS Images/2006/06-NP357MO/M8987/1/M8987.jpg, returning full-size image Could not resize /Volumes/SGI/Images/SuperContainer PAWS Images/2006/06-NP357MO/M8987/1/M8987.j…

When I resize my FMP window the web viewer/SuperContainer goes black and white (white is the background color of the layout), causing it to flicker. It's a bit annoying. Is there something I can do to stop it? Thanks.

Per the documentation, the first recommendation for printing images stored in SC is to use the SCGetContainer function if the plugin is installed. But when I use SCGetContainer the image fills up the entire size of the container field. The width and height dimensions parameters specified for SCGetContainer do not seem to have any impact on the image size. The image prints at the same size regardless of the parameters. My understanding is that if the parameters are smaller than the dimensions of the container field on the layout then the image would be printed at a smaller size. Am I misunderstanding the role of the parameters? Thanks, Will

I'm using version 2.76, and when I try to save any image, either through right-clicking the image, or using a custom script that uses SCDownload, it always converts it to jpeg. Is there a way to download the original file and not have it convert the format?

I've got Supercontainer up and running, but on one of my machines the prompt saying "An applet from 'myserver' is requesting access to your computer..." refuses to show up, I've tried messing around with the Java Preferences but to no avail. It's just the rotating coffee mug- any help would be appreciated!

I've got supercontainer working in my Filemaker Pro 11 database, but I'm trying to add it to a website created using the PHP 'Site assistant' tool for Filemaker Server 11. I have the supercontainer webviewer on the layout that I'm using to create the website, but the 'site assistant' only shows fields for adding to the webpage, it doesn't show the webviewer. How do I get the supercontainer on to the site? Thanks.

I cannot get the installer.jar to actually start the server. It says it installs correctly and I have carefully manually installed too. I have the directory c:/x86 Program Files / and is where FileMaker Server is installed. This is Server 2008 and manually starting the SuperContainer as a standalone works fine. Is the X86 directory path an issue? What am I missing. I have instructed the manually started Super Container to use 8020 as I have Crush FTP on 8080. But as I said it works find manually starting on 8020. Thank You

Hello, I'm experiencing some erratic behavior on a client PC running Windows XP, that I do not see on the Mac. Here are some examples: 1. In list view, sometimes they can only scroll using the scroll button for 2 records, then it stops. It may start up again if you scroll down with the scroll bar, then stop again. 2. Some images are not scaling to fit inside the container, but others do fine. Then when refreshing they may scale again. 3. Sometimes the images won't show up, just the file path is displayed. It just seems less fluid on the PC than on the Mac, but I have PC users who need to use the system. Are there recommended JAVA settings,…

Hi everyone! Apologies in advanced if the question has been posted before. I tried the search and couldn't find anything useful. Anyways, I have tried to set up the SuperContainer in my server. One of the steps is to set up the path of the SuperContainer Server which is http://serveraddress:8080/360SuperContainer/Files by default. When I run it locally, which means I put the local IP address of the server as the server address, it runs smoothly. However, when I try to access the SuperContainer from an external network through its external address I get a message showing a "Custom Error" message. Is there any wrong in my configuration? How do I get i…

I have supercontainers running on an install of Mac OS X (non-server) running Filemaker Server Advanced 11. Currently when I set a web viewer to a supercontainer file path I do not see a thumbnail preview of the pdf file, I only see the pdf file type icon. Do I have to specify the path to show a preview? After reading the manual it would appear that they should show up by default. What could I be doing wrong?

I can find loads of references to the SC plugin on the website, but I can't find where to download it. I hope there are installation instructions; I saw something about "dragging and dropping the plugin over FileMaker extensions" which isn't quite clear to me. Can somebody give me the URL for downloading the plugin?

I have a database of images with a few fields to give more information about them, and a serial record ID number. The database is now moved to a commercial server (360Works) and I'm trying to add a web viewer using SuperContainer. I created the web viewer field and for the URL I put in "http://mydatabase.360works.com:8020/SuperContainer/Files/" & mydatabase::slide number This seems to go okay. But then I click on the Upload button, select an image from my local drive, SuperContainer uploads it, and then displays the error above. Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

I just had a Supercontainer database developed for us, but I want to learn more about what I'm dealing with. Where can I find manuals or other good documentation? Are there any online courses? Thanks!

Ok, I am doing something wrong or have missed something. Clean Windows 7 Professional installation, FMSA11 installed and running then tried to install SuperContainer (2.76). The installer jar did nothing so I tried the manual installation. Everything in correct place - SuperContainer Folder only, not the full unzipped folder - and the uriworkermap.properties file amended. Restart computer and nothing loading when I try and go to 127.0.0.1/supercontainer, 127.0.0.1:8080/supercontainer or 127.0.0.1:8020/supercontainer. Nor using the actual IP address. IWP working, Server admin console working. What have I missed? Thanks Tim

I have a remote FileMaker client that crashes when trying to delete from a super container on a Mac 10.5.8 and also another on 10.6. My windows client can delete without problem the Supercontainer contents. Any Ideas?

Hi, I have a list layout. When I put a webviewer linked to SC on the layout I lose the ability to scroll up and down the list with scroll wheel. This behavior is same on Windows XP and Windows 7 clients. Running latest version of SC and FMP11. I have tried a number of different style settings in the SC URL and none seem to have any affect. I have replaced the webviewer with a calculated field populated via SC Plug in and scrolling now works fine - although slow, I would prefer the webviewer but need scroll wheel. Any idea what might cause this behavior. Thanks, Ted

I have a pilot running on windows 2008 server. I have installed Supercontainer which is running fine on the LAN. IWP is also running fine on LAN. Most recent test was to get a remote dynamic url to allow access through my router (time capsule). IWP is working fine but always get a timeout with the web viewers and Supercontainer. I have the following ports forwarded to the server: 80, 5003, 16000, 16001, The server is in a domain and none of my client computers (on the LAN) are in the domain and they all access the IWP and the SC images fine. Only my colleague running remotely fails at the last hurdle. Is there another port which could be in use? I have S…

A few weeks ago, my MacBook Pro refused to boot. What transpired is unimportant, but the problem was resolved by installing a clone of the hard drive. No data was lost and I was able to bring things up to date with the periodic backups. However, since that time, the drag & drop feature of SC does not work. Everything displays properly and ends up where it's supposed to. I can retrieve everything properly. But, I have to use the upload button to add anything, and that becomes somewhat annoying when I need to change the contents because I have to delete and then drill down again to the file. Is there a plist somewhere I need to trash or a setting or param…

In previous versions of SuperContainer the webviewer didn't have a top and left borders. In more recent versions it has appeared. I spoke to someone from 360Works at Devcon in August and he thought the borders might be caused by something inadvertently left in a CSS file somewhere. Any ideas how to remove these borders? A previous post here states thin grey lines might be unavoidable in some browsers, but these dark lines are a problem. Thanks, W

With FM Go 1.1.1 out, we can now email container field contents. Any thoughts on how we can get the SC contents into a container field using processes only compatible with FM Go? Peter

I can see the webviewer image in browse mode but not in preview mode. I have created a test.fp7 that only has one record, one layout with one webviewer so it isn't an issue of Preview mode jumping to the first record. I am running FMPA 11 v2 on Windows 7. I've removed all the plugins but that didn't help. Of course this problem does not occur on my Mac. Preview mode used to work correctly on my Win PC and I don't know when this issue began. I suppose that I could try different restore points but am not optimistic that will help. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Will

Listview with the following url does not work in a portal to "displays a small thumbnail or icon, with the filename to the right of it." (quoted from the sc docs). The scroll bars are still visible as well as a full attachment. Can i get a correction to my url? $$sc_base_url & $$sc_file_attachment_path &"/" & service_event_ATTACHMENTS::fk_id & "/" & service_event_ATTACHMENTS::pk_attachment_id & "?style=listview"

How can I change the color of the upload link on a Supercontainer installation with CWP when the image within SC is already present ? Or how could I display to the user on my site, that there is a image already uploaded behind a certain upload link ? Thanks for any idea .... Frank

A client wants to setup two separate SuperContainer servers for their two offices. From the user's point of view, one server will be on the LAN with a local IP address and the other will be on the WAN. How can I access a document from either server with the save Webview?

I'm trying to print a multiple page report of images. Each page is a basic contact sheet, 4 x 4 grid (columnar report). Super Container appears to be loading (something) for each image on each page. The report is an average of 25 pages and seems to process. However, I am getting gray blocks in the print out that say "Connecting to Super Container" vs. the expected images. It's as if SC does not have enough time to display the thumbnails properly during the print process. Any thoughts?

I've been making Filemaker Pro databases from version 1 to 5.5. I wanted the relational capabilities of 4D but that didn't arrive until FM 7. Now I have been using FMPro 11 Advanced for several weeks and am pretty much back up to speed. Now I've undertaken a ten table database I want to host on the web that makes heavy use of container fields for images, excel, pdf, word.docs and so on. Mostly images of products though. I'm paying for a Filemaker hoster that is great (Point in Space) and everything functions perfectly but my staff can't upload anything into container fields. So I'm testing out 360 Works Super Container. I'm having success testing it on my local IWP…

Getting an error under Windows but not Mac: "Could not connect to SuperContainer server: java.io.IOException: Unable to connect to http://myserver.tld:8080/SuperContainer/Files/. Verify that the port number is correct. For standalone usage, the default is 8020. For tomcat deployment, the default port is 80." Running SC 2.75 under OS X Server 10.5.8 via Tomcat. Everything works fine via Macs and the port is 8080. Windows can see http://myserver.tld:8080/SuperContainer/ but throws that error in any /Files/ path. Windows client is updated to build 1.6.0_21-b07.

We are having issues with the SuperContainerCompanion Plugin that you may be able to direct me how to fix. This just recently started happening. We have the script copied from the example file and use the AutoUpdate to make sure the latest version of the plugin is installed. I don't know if the OS or virus software or what is interfering with the plugin, but numerous users are not able to have their plugins enabled after it is installed. I have manually removed the plugin from the Documents and Settings path to the Program Files path and visa versa with no change. I have had them reinstall FileMaker and then try it. They are able to use FileMaker fine, but not able t…

Hi, If I try to open a pdf from SuperContainer in FileMaker GO the pdf is displayed in the webview instead of opened in a pdf viewer. Is it possible to direct it to a pdf viewer? iBooks?/ Safari? Best regards, Ruben van den Boogaard Infomatics Software

If the Supercontainer Companion Plugin is not installed is there a way to test for an instance of the SuperContainer Server running, when a client tries to connect?

We have FMSA 11 on (server name FM01) which is serving our "VM" app via IWP. We have SC installed as a stand alone on a different server (SC01) which has been modifed to place documents on a 3rd server (FS01). We will not be using the SC plugin so we've designed a portal with a web viewer next to it to show the document related to the record chosen. Everything works as expected using an FM11 client or IWP… as long as we are within the firewall (on the LAN). If I try to access the docs (via IWP) from any point outside our office the browser brings back all of the related record information then after a few minutes the web viewer displays (… cannot display this web pag…

Hi, I was just wondering if it's still possible to use supercontainer with FileMaker IWP on the iPad? We don't want to use FileMaker Go. Thanks in advance for any help.

Is there a way to hide the SuperContainer Server log window which is always open?

Does anybody know what versions of Tomcat will work for running SuperContainer as a standalone? Version 7 Version 6 : Todd

Updated to 2.75 of supercontainer. The server 11 is on a Mac. Clients are on Citrix 4.5 running on 2003 server terminal services. The Supercontainer Plugin won't activate within Filemaker Pro 11 client. Could this be a write permissions issue and if so where should I be looking to change permissions. I really need your help. Thanks Peter

Greetings - New to SC. We have SC running stand-alone, love the core graphics rendering, all is working fine. I could not find in the documentation how to manage uploading multiple files. Well, what I mean is, in the documentation it says What we want is to be able to upload a directory of items and have them stored as discreet files, OR most importantly, be able to access them as discreet files, each with their own URL. What am I missing? In the above example from the documentation, how would I access MyFavoriteFlower.jpg after uploading CoolStuff to Files/19? Many thanks, Michael

Hi Guys, I work for a company which is transferring a number of its key processes to filemaker databases and allowing staff to access them on computers and iPads through IWP. I’ve been working around the IWP issue of not being able to convert a record into a PDF. I’ve created a server side script which creates the PDF on the server. It writes over a single file each time someone selects to convert a record to PDF so only one file needs to be referenced. But, I cannot reference a file in IWP, it has to be inserted into the database to work so I am stuck. We have been looking at getting super container for a number of reasons and I was wondering if it would fix this pro…

I have upgraded to the latest versions of all software and it has caused a problem. If I upload a PDF file using supercontainer. when trying to open the file again, instead of opening the PDF, supercontainer creates a JPEG instead and opens that! I can upload Word, Excel and JPEGs and they all open in their relevant applications, but PDFs are converted to JPEGs. The problem has only occurred after the upgrade and worked perfectly well before. (I was on OSX 10.4) I have tried uploading to the sample file that you get with supercontainer and the exact same thing happens with that. Can anyone help please? Thanks Peter

Never mind - the client had screwed up the permissions on the USERS directory. Fixed them and all is working properly.... Trying to set up SC on a client server - did a manual install of SC since it is Snow Leopard Server, server & clients are FM 10. Manually changed permissions using terminal to the correct permissions for the default folder Users/Shared/SuperContainer/Files & I am using the script from the sample file to upload a folder of files, and I get an error 500 every time on the first file to attempt upload. I also get this error if I attempt to upload files using the web interface on server. But the permissions are set correctly. …

Hi, I'm trying to find out how to customize the language. Is this possible or?

I would appreciate your help please. Does someone have a SuperContainer example that just does the following? I need people to be able to access and work with a FileMaker database using a Web browser and Instant Web Publishing (IWP). The aim is that people will be able to add multiple attachments e.g. PDFs, Word documents, CAD drawings etc (number unknown) to multiple Web Viewer elements (say 3, let's call them "Product A's Design Files", "Product B's Design Files", and "Product C's Design Files"). For each Web viewer element it would be possible to "import an external file", "delete an imported file", "open an imported file" (using the file's native application e.g.…

Super Container seems to be cropping large images (32x48 inches). Even when I specify the width using getlayoutobjectattribute("objectname";"width") it still crops the image.

Sorry for the length of my (first) post here but I need a bit of hand-holding to get SC integrated into my solution... In my current solution I have a 200-pixel wide 3-row 'chooser' portal alongside an equal height single row portal. At present a scripted button lets a user load a reference to a thumb image, chosen from the mounted volume of the image server, into a container field in the chooser portal row. This generates a portal that can be scrolled quickly to find the desired image. Clicking the chooser portal row filters the main portal so it matches the chosen image. The main portal has a calc field (result container) that parses the thumb image path to generat…

During a script, I would like to create a document, put it on a Users desktop AND then, using SuperContainer, upload it so it can be stored in our database. I saw an old post by Jesse Barnum referencing SCUpload but I don't see a function by that name. How can a script that just created a PDF now store that PDF?

We would like to provide links in emails to files stored by SuperContainer, and we like the way that "Raw Data" works. However, is there a way to conceal the SuperContainer user name and password, but still provide access to the file? Or somehow automate the system to copy the file to a download location?

I'm moving my database from a Mac OS X to a Windows XP machine. I'm using FMS 9 and I've got several thousand images stored on this machine use SuperContainer. The new machine will also have a new (dedicated) IP address. How can I make sure this transfer goes smoothly? I'm concerned that the change will affect filepaths, etc.

Has anyone figured a way out to get FM to detect when a user drags and drops a new image into a supercontainer file? I need present the user a pop-up after the event, but only way I have been able to figure it out so far is to just disable the drag-n-drop feature. But the users really like that feature..

I want to be able to use the SCGetContainer function to access the thumbnail versions of the files SC generates upon upload. The container data would then be exported to allow the user to send an email with the thumbnail version of the file, instead of the native file. For example, an Adobe Illustrator file is converted to a .png file type in the thumbnail folder. First,I used the set Base URL function to set the path to the Thumbnails folder, instead of the Supercontainer folder, then called the SCGetContainer function. The SCGetContainer function returns an empty resource from the thumbnail folder, where there is a file. Perhaps I'm not completely unders…

I'm trying to demo SC to a client running Windows 7 and FMP 11 without Server. It will only display graphic files and shows the file icon for Excel, Word, pdfs, etc. Tried it on MacBookPro running 10.6.4 and FMPA 10.3 and can't get SC to display anything... It has to be something simple. Help appreciated! SC newbie

The QuickStart says "you should be able to register SuperContainer at http://localhost:8020/SuperContainer/Register." I get a DNS error every time. I am using the IP address specififed when running the local server: SuperContainer URL: ..... Is this why I can't get SuperContainer to work on a Mac 10.6.4 as a standalone server using the demo version? I've tried going on without this and the message I get in SuperContainer is that the URL is not found on this server. Raylene

Are there plans for SuperContainer to work in FileMaker Go or is there something I need to set in the Web Viewer for it to work. Thanks! Dana

Any way for PDF annotations like HighLight, Underline, etc show up in the WebViewer? I'm running SuperContainer as a standalone App on my xserve 10.5.8 server. It renders the PDFs for me. I do a Get Info on the PDF on the server and the thumbnail in the Get Info window includes the annotations. The PDFs render as if the annotations don't exist but when I download or doubleclick the WebViewer for the original they're there. Anything I'm doing wrong? Thanks! Dana Using version 2.748

Running Supercontainer 2.748 DEMO on a Windows 7 PC with Filemaker 11 Developer Advanced. File uploading works correctly and I am able to see images or file icons as expected. When I click on the container field, I get the appropriate viewer displaying the file. However when I close Word 2010 down after displaying a stored Word document, either the icon for this word file remains displayed in the web viewer for every record in the dataset, or the web viewer displays as a black rectangle. This only seems to happen with Word 2010 documents, not with PDFs or JPG images. Any suggestions? Thanks Brian Rich

I've had SuperContainer quit on me occasionally and require a Relaunch. It's happened twice in the past 10 days and maybe once a month in the previous 6 months. According to memory, every time I've checked it out, the OS (Leopard) has updates to install. Could be coincidence, could be an issue. Just wondering if anyone else has this experience. I've turned off automatic updates, and we'll see if it happens again.

Hello, I am trying to upgrade my Supercontainer to the latest version released on 7/12. I downloaed it and Double clicked on the installer.jar, clicked upgrade and the window just hangs. Do I have to stop the SC Server before upgrading? -Justin

Hi all, I am trying to do the standalone installation of SuperContainer on Window Server 2008. As soon as I click "SuperContainerServer.jar", an error dialog pop up with this message: "Cannot run SuperContainerServer:java.lang.RuntimeException: Logging directory is not writeable, please verify that the Files folder is in a folder SuperContainer can write to." Does anybody what "Files folder" is it talking about? What permission does it need? I even try to install SuperContainer using "Installer.jar" but that does not seem to do anything either. I know Window Server 2008 might have more built in security which might cause the problem…

Hi all, I am going to install SuperContainer on a Window Server 2008; however, there are 2 installation options that I am still not decide which one to use. One is "Using Supercontainer as a standalone server application" and the other is the "Installing SuperContainer with FileMaker Server Advanced". Does anybody know the pro and con of each option? I thinking of the standalone installation as it is the easiest and it would not affect FileMaker if SuperContain has a problem. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hopefully this is simple. I'm trying to SCDownload RawData file(s) to my desktop. I get an error when I SetBaseURL using "/RawData/" instead of "/Files/" and SCDownload does not accept the full path. I'd much rather use the SetBaseURL because it keeps my Username & password hidden. What I know how to get the actual PDF file instead of a JPG. Double click on the WebViewer ; Right Click on the WebViewer and select "Save As" ; Put the Full Http path using /RawData/ into a Web Browser and then save it through the Web Browser.

Has anyone attempted this? I'm running FileMaker Pro 11.0v1 on a Citrix XenApp 6.0 farm. I've installed the plugin and run it on my XenApp account without issue. Now when another user launches FileMaker the plugin isn't loading. Under preferences when I check mark the SuperContainer plugin to enable it I get the following message: "SuperContainer Companion Plugin" could not be enabled. Not very descriptive..... I did attempt to give other users full admin rights to the server but that didn't help ether. Any ideas? A.J.

Hi there, I've just upgraded from SuperContainer 1.x to the latest version in order to use the PHP API for my CWP site running FSA 9.

I have a data base (genealogy name, date, father, mother comments) that I would like to link individual entries to a photo, but I do not want the photo in the data base. I have tried to click on a particular field (comments) but when I look at insert, none of the options are available, have tried this in several view. I am new to this and would appreciate any help Mike

Just downloaded and I am trying to install. When I click on installer.jar I get a message "Can not find Filemaker Server Web Publishing Engine, Please make sure Web Publishing engins in instaled and try again." The web publishing engine is installed and working. The C: drive on my server was very small when it was setup by manufacturer so Filemaker Server Advanced is installed on D Drive. Could this be why Super Container can't find the Web Publishing Engine and if so is there a way around it?

I can not get SuperContainer (v 2.746) to display content in a WebViewer. It works fine if I navigate to it directly via Safari but the WebViewer just gives me the java coffee cup with the circular arrows. I've tried hard coding the URL into the WebViewer as well a using the calculation engine and neither works.

New to SuperContainer but quickly learning how awesome it is, even beyond a FileMaker tool. Not sure where to start, but I'd like to remove the 'Upload file' button and replace it with a background image that centers in the Web Viewer. Users aren't quite clear that they can simply drag a file onto the container and keep clicking on the Upload button, so I'd like to replace it with an 'upload' icon/graphic with flat text that says 'Drop file here'. Thanks, Max

I use the plugin on windows server and when i try to import a local or a network folder returns this error "could not import file (#1 ...path...) read error. Help me please!!! Axlil

I have SuperContainer configured to point to an external file server to store documents (ie: not on the same box as FMSA) I can upload a file using the Web Viewer successfully. I can see the file icon in the Web Viewer and I can see it on the document server. However, when I then run a script using the Companion PlugIn SCGetInfo function I get ERROR 404 and the following entry in my log file: Jun 10, 2010 10:17:00 AM com.prosc.fmkit.Plugin setLastError SEVERE: PluginFunction PluginFunction{name='SCGetInfo', functionID=-8372, minArgs=1, maxArgs=-1} got an error with converted args [/Templates/Form/Agreements/CDA/273, null] com.prosc.supercontainer.plugi…

We have a system that opens up another window with a SuperContainer web viewer on it. There are two buttons, one that save the record and closes the window, and another that simply closes the window. On windows 7 using FileMaker 11 that close window step causes FileMaker to crash. We have tested this, and it only happens on layouts where there is a SuperContainer web viewer on the layout, and it only happens on windows 7 with FileMaker 11. Any thoughts on what could be causing this? Our SuperContainer server is at version 2.746.

I have been trying to run FMSA 10 on a Dell server using Windows Server 2008 without much success. I have constant problems with the IIS service suddenly stopping for no apparent reason. I decided to see if I could improve the situation by installing Apache 2, although it is not officially supported by FileMaker. It took some doing but I eventually got it up and running fine. Now the only issue I have is that one of my databases relies on SuperContainer and I get this error message in the container: "Not Found The requested URL /SuperContainer/Files/Properties/143/1 was not found on this server." Nothing else has changed. I've moved the server root directory from inet…

Can anyone help? Supercontainer is running on a windows 2003 server (Supercontainer 2.744). No issues with anyone using mac and PC connecting except one user running XP (Java 1.5) keeps getting the following message when Supercontainer tries to connect. Line 7, img is undefined. Comes up with the debugger. If he cancels the debugger, the pdf shows in the web viewer. If he goes to another record the same error shows. Any help much appreciated. Looked through the 360works docs, google search. nothing I can find. Cheers

Hi, I would like to be able to download an image stored in supercontainer to a folder on the desktop and rename the file. Any easy way to script this? Thanks, Ted

I'm trying to figure out a way for my end users on IWP to be able to upload a folder of images to Supercontainer and then have a script that separates the images into individual Supercontainer folders so that the end user can then add titles, tags, etc to each image. It isn't practical for the end user to upload one image at a time. I know that when a folder is placed in a Supercontainer it becomes a zip file. Is there a way to then script the unzipping of that folder and moving of the files to individual Supercontainer folders? I also have FTPeek if that will help in the solution. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Sorry for the bother, but I'm a first time user of SuperContainer having trouble with installing it. I hope someone in these forums can help. I've recently upgraded to Server 11 Advanced and have downloaded the latest SuperContainer (2.742). Ran Installer.jar from the local hard disk (not network drive). Message says "An unexpected error occurred during installation". I then followed the instructions for manual installation, and SuperContainer appears to run, but only in Demo Mode. There wasn't any opportunity to enter the registration code (presumably this would have been part of the aborted installation process). What may be relevant is that I seem to rem…

When I run SuperContainer Server locally, it says "Enabling OS X core image processing" in the log, but when I run it on a file server it says "Core image processing is not enabled". What's the difference, and should it be running on the file server as well since both machines are Intel Macs running Leopard? Thanks in advance!

I can't get keep windows from blocking SC because it's not a "digitally signed publisher". It works fine on the Macs. When I turned off the IE security settings, it still doesn't seem to to actually display the file (although it doesn't prompt me ).

Hi, We are looking at SC to check if it fits our needs. We would like to know if it's possible to send the files to an external server? We have actually a VPS running FMS8 (Which will be updated to FMS11.) and a website hosted somewhere else. Is it possible to run SC from the VPS and send the files in a directory on our web host? Thank you PS It might take times before I answer back since I'll be in vacation next week.

Hello, Is there a way to detect if a file has been uploaded to a Web Viewer Supercontainer field? Or have Supercontainer set another flag to "yes" upon upload? I'd like to notify particular users via email when a document is uploaded. Thanks

Hello Forum, Is there any way to point SuperContainer to a Google Docs account, so that files download from, and upload to, that location? Thank you. Eric

Hello - We're using SuperContainer to store images for use in our FileMaker database. Now we'd like to start using those images on our public website as well. Is there a way to reference images stored via SuperContainer without having the user get a pop-up -- asking them to approve an applet or requesting unrestricted access to their computer? Both "RawData" and "Files" URLs seem to require approvals.

Hi, I have a solution that displays supercontainer images in portals using the plug-in and container fields. This works fine with .jpgs but does not display an image in the portal when we are using .gif images. Can anyone explain what I am doing wrong, or is this a known limitation of supercontainer and the plugin? Thanks, Ted

Looked around and couldn't find this question, so here goes... trying out Supercontainer looking to incorporate it into some of our client sites... testing in office with FMS10 on OS X and several Mac, Windows and Windows via Parallels machines. Everything works fine on the Macs, but on a Windows machine with XP or two virtual Windows machines via Parallels on an MBP (XP and W7), I get an "Unable to load preview for this item: Could not create directory" message when going to a layout with a Supercontainer object on it. What am I missing? Thanks, this is great on the Macs - but all our clients are 100% Windows, servers and desktops, so I need to get comfortable …

Hey guys, We are increasingly running into issues with our customers and their use of supercontainer. The only thing they have in common is that they all use proxy servers. They get the attached error. Is this a simple matter of the customer's IT department allowing that website through their proxy? From the error, it seems like it might be more than that(java.io.IOException). Any thoughts would be appreciated.
