screen-scraper support for licensed users
I would like sample C# or VB .NET code.
A few questions:
1 - Can you tell me where I can get some sample C# or VB.NET code that runs as an external program, and uses the RemoteScrapingSession.dll class library? I think there must be some, because someone had to test out the class with a .NET program. I would like to downlod it if possible, or possibly a developer or tech person could e-mail it to me? I'll probably get this to work just fine, but could I have the name and e-mail address of a support person who is familiar with writing external .NET programs?
How to import tutorial 1 in order to start tutorial 3 ?
I am about to go through the third tutorial. It shows this:

If you haven't completed the first tutorial don't worry, but you'll at least need to import the script and scraping session that were created in the first tutorial. To do that, download and import the scraping session found here.

Should it create NEW scrapeable files?
I am not sure if I am doing it wrong or if this is the way that SS works:
To get new data from a web sites, I create a proxy session and a scraping session, and then created an extractor pattern. In the proxy session I selected a scaping session from the prompt "Generate scrapeable file in:" and selcted the scraping session and clicked "GO". Although I had previously created a scrapeable file that contains a extractor patttern, it did not generate data into that scrapeable file. It instead created a NEW scrapeable file. Is it supposed to do that?

Where are proxy sessions and scraping sessions saved?
I am going through the tutorials. I saved the test proxy and scraping sessions. I wasn't prompted for locations. Can you tell me where they are saved?
The program can't start because verify.dll is missing for your computer.
I am attempting to run screen-scraper for the first time. I am using Windows 7 64-bit. I clicked "all programs", "screen scraper enterprise edition", "screen scraper".
This message appeared: "The program can't start because verify.dll is missing for your computer. Try re-installing the program to fix the problem."
Response not getting refreshed in screen scraper
I have scraped a site.
But there is one parameter given below
I have scrapped the above parameter as
When I run the scrapping session for the second time the value remains 55216 but on the site when I do view source I get the value as 55217
But the same is not reflected in response of screen scrapper.It remains the same 55216 which is the old one.
Any Suggestions?

Redirect not working
When I hit a url on browser it redirects me to a new url
Like when I hit www.abc.com it redirects me to www.abc.com/(S(jvtkl4yj4r1d40ei1ogsboeu))/ApplicationSearch.aspx.
The problem is that the parameter (S(jvtkl4yj4r1d40ei1ogsboeu)) changes for every new request made.
I am not able to scrap the site because of this changing parameter.
I have read on Screen Scraper forum that Screen Scraper will automatically follow the redirects but in my case it's not.
Issue with external_proxy_host
We have scrapped sites and saved it in fileSessionName.sss with some external proxy i.e
When we deploy this on production environment with some other external proxy, it does not override the
above mentioned external proxy with new one.
Website dynamically generating an parameter called esessionid
Hi,
We are scraping a website which generates a new essesionid for each request.
somewebsite.com/someAction?esessionid=6A7CF116899FFBB239AE24FFC006262A_1&LANGUAGE=EN&formid=DESH_PLANNING_APPS
After some research we figured out that this parameter was used by some access control mechanism to authenticate
sessions. Is it possible for screen scraper to intercept or predict the esessionid.
Appreciate your support in this issue- Regards-Dipti
