Media Import issue within Scalar about scalar

[aarondmoss]

Went into the root level .htaccess and changed RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/scalar/system(.) [NC] to RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/system(.) [NC] to match my environment. This change fixed the "Metropolitan Museum of Art Importer" and the import from my Omeka install.

Is the .htaccess file present in system/application/rdf?

https://github.com/anvc/scalar/blob/master/system/application/rdf/.htaccess

It's critical to allow requests through to the RDF proxy ... a lot of times the file doesn't get copied especially if you're using a Mac FTP client, where dot files are hidden.

.htaccess is present.(see below) Is this a possible firewall issue? ports that may need to be opened?
My Scalar server sits on a DMZ network.

cat .htaccess

Satisfy Any
Allow from all# pwd
/var/www/html/scalar/system/application/rdf

Hmm... I don't know much (if anything) about DMZ .... can you open up your browser's NET console and see what the http error number + message is when you try to search for something?

I'm experiencing something similar with affiliates and other archives.

When searching the http result is a 404 error for my server, not the affiliate. "The requested URL /system/application/rdf/proxy.php was not found on this server." proxy.php is on the server, the path leading to it is accessible to the web server. The .htaccess file is present in system/application/rdf.

I'm running 2.1.1 on RHEL 6 with MySQL 5.5, Apache 2.2 w/ SSL, and PHP 5.3.3.

From Chrome's console: Request URL:https://sislt-scalar.missouri.edu/system/application/rdf/proxy.php?xsl=https%3A%2F%2Fsislt-scalar.missouri.edu%2Fsystem%2Fapplication%2Frdf%2Fxsl%2Fcuban_theater_digital_archive.xsl&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fctda.library.miami.edu%2Fobjsearch%2F%3Fq%3DBERNARDA&format=json&header=

@clueboy37 ... and you're sure mod_rewrite (which enables .htaccess) is On in your apache config?

Your Scalar URLs are "clean", correct? If not, for example, if page URLs have "codeigniter.php" in them, then this means the root .htaccess isn't working either.
