Where do you think the error is in these entries?

Thanks!

[enygma]

I know it has been said already. Really looking forward to the parser update thanks again!

[Mortani]

Thanks so much for picking this up!

Versions beyond 4.0.118 seem to break the NPC Database functionality that works with the Module Workshop.

Also, had a few odd <h1 class="atwillpower"> in the Monster Vault scrape I just did.

[Dracones]

Anyone had any luck with parsing items from the compendium?

[zapoqx]

I haven't tried Dracones. However, considering that the old days of the items were not only sorted by doing +1 to +6 as separate entrees (as well as heroic/paragon/epic version of non-weapon/armor/neck items), but also there was the complete change on how items were displayed compared to before. Its probably requiring an entirely new code to scrape appropriately.

[EugeneZ]

As for Items, yes its the inclusion of the new Rare/Common tag that upsets the latest version of the Parser, I'm sure EugeneZ will address it in good time.

Weird, I thought I had this figured out... will address it ASAP. Thanks for the updates and reports, guys.

[lordsoth]

What is the status of the parser? Is there a version out there that has been updated and works well enough to scrape DDI stuff now?

I was trying to scrape mordenkainen's but it seems to crash on me.?

The status is in the first post in this thread. The version out there has been updated to scrape MOST DDI stuff. The major exception is Items, and I'm working on getting that fixed ASAP. It sounds like there's a few other minor bugs with specific entries, but a lot of that is a game of cat-and-mouse where WotC changes the HTML of an entry to some non-standard format, seemingly at random.

Hi!

Any news on the update?

Thanks!

[CScribe]

First of all thanks for the effort you have put into this very handy bit of software.

I am however having trouble...

When I attempt a Compendium Scrape of the Player's Handbook I get an error:

"The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error."

The last few lines displayed on the Processing Results window are:

14/12/2011 8:09:07 PM : Setting up Items
14/12/2011 8:09:07 PM : Epic Destinies scrape Complete!
14/12/2011 8:09:07 PM : Outputting powers to C:\Program Files\4EParser\Documents\Actual\Input\PHB\powers.t xt
14/12/2011 8:09:06 PM : Processing <EpicDestiny> - Deadly Trickster
14/12/2011 8:09:04 PM : Processing <EpicDestiny> - Eternal Seeker

Any tips or advice welcome.


P.S. I've included the stack trace:
