Universal XML Scraper fatal error! (err_SystemList)

SpaceSocks

Getting this error when I try to launch the scraper. Before going to bed last night I selected to Scrape all systems. When I got up It stopped after only about 1/3 of my systems. I exited the program and when tried to restart got that error. So I thought something on my RetroPie SD card was messed up. I decided to format the SD Card and re-image again with RetroPie 4.1. I even deleted my copy of Universal XML Scraper and re-downloaded latest build and I still get the error when I launch the program. I cant even get into the program. Someone please help?

@SpaceSocks same problem here.

@vric @SpaceSocks This is written and maintained by a third party and it's not supported by the RetroPie developers here. Might be best going to the github page for this and logging a ticket directly in case they don't check this forum regularly.

@markyh444 Thanks, I did that.

@SpaceSocks After checking other posts on GetHub looks like others are having the same problem. Any version of the program ver 2.0.0.0 or greater is not working. I'm sure there working on it.

Sorry, it's just a very small problem with the DB :S

DB Admin is working on it... Come back very soon. :S

@screech glad to hear it. It's a great tool. I have been recommending it to anyone that will listen. Good job and trés bon! to all involved.

Just tested, it's back.

We are sorry, we have to handle the new server and the new database format ^^ so we have some mistake.

Normally all is good right now :p

(Don't hesitate to ask if something going wrong ;) )

@screech How many people are involved in the project?

screech

not so much ^^

1 main website dev/db admin on ScreenScraper (marblemad)
Me as UXS dev (and moderator/admin on ScreenScraper)
And about 5/10 other moderator/administrator/translator like paradadf, courte, neogeronimo, ....

And all of you who want to participate in submiting new data to the DB ;)

@SpaceSocks weird. I'm not getting the error anymore but now when i scrape a system it says "hashing" and it goes through all my games on that system but the result says 0/703 roms found.

@SpaceSocks I don't know if this is it, but ScreenScraper temporarily restricted the API to only people with a registered account. So if that is an option and it isn't set, it could explain it.

SpaceSocks

@sselph where do you go to register?

@SpaceSocks http://screenscraper.fr/

@sselph thanks but its in french? i need english lol

@SpaceSocks Click the British flag under "Langue"

FYI the site and API don't use SSL/TLS so don't reuse a password you use somewhere else. Which is always good advice.

Seems to still be down - kinda. It's working VERY slowly at the moment. What normally takes 15 minutes, is taking 3 hours.
