OK, well he didn’t know about that himself.. He’s been trying to make those
\nchanges using the admin\/admin user which obviously enough isn’t working.
\nI’ll let him know.. <\/p>\n

Shit.. well I’ve changed their ownership 3 times now and somebody keeps
\nchanging them back. Getting a bit pissed off .. I think I’ll write a cron
\njob to change the ownership back every few minutes. <\/p>\n

\nIt has thrown this ONCE. The rest of the time it’s not throwing an
\nexception, just failing to parse the accdata for some reason that I’m not
\nsure of and outputting the aforementioned SECURITY RESTRICTION.. .
\nCheck the code for HTTPRequestHandler line 163. It only throws this error
\nwhen
\n1) it can’t contact the database
\n2) it fails to parse the accdata..
\n3) the accdata says that the camera can’t be accessed..
\nHhmm.. I’ll run a few more tests on the box tonight.. <\/p>\n
