Commonhelper - error

Hello, I tried to use Commonhelper. A few weeks ago, it was working, but now it doesn't anymore. What could that mean?

Querying CommonSense ...done.Querying image data ...done. Retrieving image description ...done.

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Host 'hemlock.ts.wikimedia.org' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server in /home/magnus/public_html/database_functions.php on line 27 Could not connect to mysql : Host 'hemlock.ts.wikimedia.org' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server

Thank you in advance! --FrancescoA 09:15, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Problem with TUSC token

Hi, I'm having a problem with getting a TUSC token. I can obtain a token from the webpage http://toolserver.org/~magnus/tusc.php?language=commons&project=wikimedia and edit my talk page without any problems, but after I enter a password and click on the button it says "No token found in database". What's the problem? Truth'soutthere (talk) 22:51, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Same problem - I obtained a token (see my userpage) but the moving a picture doesn't work... --Dampinograaf (talk) 22:02, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Replacement of "Image:" with "File:"

Can I suggest that when the tool applies the {{NowCommons}} template to images after they have been transferred to the Commons, it uses the prefix "File:" instead of "Image:"? — Cheers, JackLee ^–talk– 09:04, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

generic error message

Hi, I have used this successfully in the past, but now it is giving me an error message (I've tried on a few different files, using different operating systems). Here's the text output:

Querying CommonSense ...done.
Querying image data ...done.
Retrieving image description ...done.
ERROR: Warning

Error message

When I tried to transfer image from ta.wiki to Commons, I got the following messages:

Querying CommonSense ...done.

Querying image data ...done.

Retrieving image description ...done.

ERROR: Auth not OK:

Could you work on it? Do I want to wait for some days since my account is new? --~AntanO4task (talk) 18:17, 22 September 2015 (UTC)

Yes, I'm currently getting the same error message when trying to transfer an image from en.wiki. OAuth was working automatically for me previously when I clicked "Copy to Commons: via wmfLabs CommonsHelper " link on images on Wikipedia, but now it isn't. Is there a workaround to this, or am I doing something wrong? Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 07:00, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
