Export failed
I get the following error when trying to export a fresh scraping session:
----
Export Failed
An error occurred while exporting session.
The error message was: The character ' ' is an invalid XML character
Generally errors that occur when exporting a scraping session are a a result of an uncommon character set.
Please check this in the "Settings" dialog box.
----
Charset is utf-8 in general and iso 8859-1 for the session which is the same I use for all scrapes. I've also checked the naming of the session and all scripts included an no funny naming or chars here.
I did update to yesterdays alpha release in case any bug slipped in?
What version of
What version of screen-scraper are you running? I think that we have fixed this sometime since 4.5 came out, so if you're on a licensed copy we can get you the latest alpha and that should fix it.
Fixed
The reason was that I match image ASCII in a script and obviously SS does not like those little chars.
Same bug with version 4.5.31a
I got the same message trying to export one of my scraping sessions after upgrading to 4.5.31a. This scraping session uses no scripts. The other scraping sessions exported OK.
