PHP Fatal Error and…

  • Hi there, I’m getting unusual errors both in WordPress as well as from my BBB server. I believe these errors are pointing to my WordPress server but it has baffled me as to what it really is and how to fix it.

    I posted in the BBB setup forum here in regards to the BBB server:
    https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/bigbluebutton-setup/xyZk7mTbofw

    But I thought I’d also post the PHP error here in case anyone can narrow it down:

    PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'String could not be parsed as XML' in /home/mysite/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bigbluebutton/php/bbb_api.php:46\nStack trace:\n#0 /home/mysite/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bigbluebutton/php/bbb_api.php(46): SimpleXMLElement->__construct('<html>\\r\\n<head><...')\n#1 /home/mysite/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bigbluebutton/php/bbb_api.php(413): bbb_wrap_simplexml_load_file('https://broadcas...')\n#2 /home/mysite/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton-plugin.php(1275): BigBlueButton::getRecordingsArray('fea2c15d87b6bc1...', 'https://audioserver...', '4213c3dbca3f278...')\n#3 /home/mysite/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton-plugin.php(730): bigbluebutton_list_recordings('List of Your Re...')\n#4 [internal function]: bigbluebutton_general_options('')\n#5 /home/mysite/public_html/wp-includes/plugin.php(525): call_user_func_array('bigbluebutton_gene...', Array)\n#6 /home/mysite/public_html/wp-admin/admin.php(236): d in /home/mysite/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bigbluebutton/php/bbb_api.php on line 46

    The oddest part is that the error above is occurring on only ONE of my multi-sites, the others do not have this error but have identical configurations. The only difference is the amount of recordings listed for this particular site (more than 100). The recordings aren’t showing there…everyone else’s are there.

    Sorry for coming that late. That is a bug. The problems seems to be the way the getRecordings request is done.

    In order to avoid overload BBB servers with unnecessary requests meetingIDs are all included in the same query string. As it is a get request (BBB only supports get) the size of the qs is limited to what the webserver has been configured to.

    It works for most use cases but as you pointed, in this case where you have more than 100 recordings, well, you can see.

    The solution would be to paginate the requests. I’ll update the code in the next weeks.

    Cheers,

    JF
