usually when scraping comics with large number of issues, like those in

the eComic book that you were trying to scrape, if possible.)

2. Uncle Scrooge
3.

WHAT VERSION OF COMICVINESCRAPER ARE YOU USING?

It may have something to do with the internet connection. When a few more
applications are sharing the bandwidth, it occurs more easily

There is a fairly esoteric bug in .NET somewhere that might be causing this 
problem.
 You don't happen to be using Windows XP do you?  If you do, bumping up to the latest
service pack might help.

What's happening is that the data being returned from comicvine is being "cut 
off"
half way, but the program isn't realizing it until too late.  

I've made a change where the program will try once to reconnect to comicvine if 
this
kind of error happens.  It's a bit of a hack, but it might solve your 
problem...if it
does, I'll leave it in there.

The change is in 1.0.7...can you download that when you have a chance, and let 
me
know if it seems to help?

Looks like 1.0.7 is giving me unexpected errors when it doesn't recognize a 
title.
Before you would just get the pop-up for "not found" now I get the unexpected 
error.

I'll post the logs on the google page, but I'm positive it just has to do with
unrecognized names. (for me at least).

Not the worst bug in the world..but it kills the flow of the script as instead 
of
skipping the not found entries, it terminates the script.

log = Anita Blake - The Laughing Corpse - Executioner
log 1 = The Bluecoats  - The Skyriders

Neither of these are recognized @ Comicvine as valid series based on the 
current title.

Regarding Icis.Tech and the Power Pack issue..I believe this has been a problem
forever with all the CV scripts and the general consensus is something is wrong 
at CV
with their Power Pack listing.    Not sure of teh specifics though.

Hi guys, thanks for the quick bug reports and your thoughts about them.

I've looked at all the log files that you submitted (600wpmpo, revquixo, 
icis.tech)
and you are all experiencing the exact same problem, at least according to the 
logs.
 Just a silly oversight on my part, looks like, and it should be very simple to fix.

Unfortunately, I'm at work right now, so the fix will have to wait until I get 
home
tonight (at least 8 or 9 hours from now.)   In the meantime, v1.0.6 was fairly 
stable
and didn't exhibit this problem, so you could always roll back if you need to 
use the
script this afternoon.

The problems you guys were having without unknown series causing the script to 
crash
should be fixed in 1.0.8, which is available now.

However, the original issue for this bug (reported by 600WPMPO) might still be
happening, so I'll leave this report open for a while longer, until he's pretty 
sure
its not happening anymore. (Let me know, please!)

Its quite stable..

is the
log.

@600wpmpo:  This last one that you reported (comment #9) is actually a 
different bug
(according to the log file.)   So I've created a new issue out of it, #31.  

It'll be fixed very soon, I already know what's causing it.

600WPMPO, I'm going to close this bug, since it is really collection of several
different bugs now.   

If you're still getting the intermittent unexpected error (hopefully you 
won't!), can
you just open a new bug report for it?
