Alpha bug?

Morning Scrapers,

I installed the new alpha release today and all my scrapes refused to run. Instead of a bunch of HTML i got [Binary data} as the only SS reply besides the HTML headers.

I uninstalled the version and went back to the last stable but that feels like stoneage in comparison....

Are you familiar with this?

I've updated a few instances

I've updated a few instances and not seen this.

Can you send me your error.log to see if there is anything I can see in there that would help?

You can install 4.5.24a again. Get:

http://www.screen-scraper.com/screen-scraper/updates/4.5.24a/update.zip

And unzip that to your screen-scraper directory. You will need to overwrite the files if prompted, and manually update the version in your screen-scraper.properties file.

Same problem

I have had the same problem. After I made the downgrade to 4.5.24a, i have problems accessing the scripts.

Did the 4.5.27a solve to problem?

Under the 4.5.26a i also had some problems when using patterns with simlar names. What changes did you make?

We added so editing functions

We added so editing functions to the extrator patterns, and that caused the problems with 26a. 27a should fix that problem.

Documentation

Hi

Would it be posible for us to get some documentation on the alpha versions? That way it will be easier for us to decide if we want to upgrade.

Hi, We have an item on our

Hi,

We have an item on our to-do list to include notes with each alpha release that indicate what was changed. It would essentially be a change log that you could use to help determine whether or not you wanted to upgrade. We haven't implemented it just yet, and the best we can offer at this point is the alpha documentation section of our web site:

http://community.screen-scraper.com/alpha_documentation

It is admittedly incomplete, though. Watch for the change log feature in a future version.
