Hey all,

I'm currently running an LJ server with perlbal on the front end. I
encounter the above error when I attempt to make use of the "Upload from
gallery" feature on the update page (I also have an FB install integrated).

I really have no idea what this error means, so if someone could offer
some advise it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Stephen Gibson

This is a AJAX-helper function of the Vhost.pm plugin.

Basically, on a service selector service, where you'd normally configure
vhosts, you configure a magic vhost like:

VHOST www.dev.lj;using:pics.dev.lj = fotobilder

Which says:

If the HTTP request is to "www.dev.lj", but is actually asking (in the
URI) to be routed to pics.dev.lj, that's okay:  use the "fotobilder"
service for it.

Basically, this is for bypassing the same-origin security restrictions on
JavaScript when both origins are under your control, just with different
hostnames.

If javascript served from "www.dev.lj" wants to do XmlHttpRequest (or
whatever) to pics.dev.lj, it instead makes an HTTP request to:

http://www.dev.lj/__using/pics.dev.lj/some/endpoint.php

Make sense?
