Frodo: if your scraper isn't working anymore (potential quick fix) - Christoph21x - 2012-12-18 Hi All Using Frodo RC1 & Nightlies, I encountered recently many scrapers that don't work anymore. Please note: if the content provider really changed its web page - this description will not help, I'm sorry. And: this post will probably be outdated/invalid with the official release of Frodo But if the non-working of your scraper is just because seemingly (I'm no expert! Was just playing around...) Frodo changed the usage of http requests, you may be successful following the next steps - at least I got all my used scrapers back and running again
If you find an entry like "&amp" just remove the first complete entry "&" --> the result looks like (a single) "&" Please also have a look at the "<requires>[...]<import addon=[...]" entries of addon.xml. The entries here are candidates to be changed, too, in order to have a complete proper (new) setup. In such a case, consider also to update the version information of this required add-on (that you probably updated) in the addon.xml file. I would be glad if this worked for other users, too. Please let us know if this fix worked for you or not (pointing out the scraper) in this thread. If not, I should adopt the description to not cause troubles to other users... Kind regards - Chris |
