Error Validation

[learn2learn1]

This is the command I get when I try to use the .jar [scallop] Error: Validation failure for 'fiction-link' option parameters: https://royalroadl.com/fiction/XXX

@learn2learn1 how does the command that your try to run looks like?

If you just tried to run the jar without any parameters, then it's not how it suppose to work. Check the How to Use section in readme.

Just tried it myself:

Closing issue for now. Feel free to reopen if you still can't make it work.

This is what happens when I run it. I am not exactly sure what "parameters" mean, is that the command line argument thing? "java -jar my.jar [argument] ?

I renamed the .jar to Royalroadl.jar.

@learn2learn1 ah, I see the problem. Program expects url with http protocol (not https). I'll update it to accept https, meanwhile you can work around the issue by replacing https in your link with http.

Alright thank you.
