Running demo.py shows 'no forts found' in Mac OSX El Captain

[Jefreesujit]

I pulled out the latest code, updated the requirements and added libencrypt.so in the repo directory. When i try to run demo.py it executes fine, but says 'no forts found' and stops.

[Jefreesujit]

i tried to log, the cells.mapcells, and found it has no forts array in the cell object.. could someone help me out here..

[dnsBlah]

Do you have the encryption file ?

[Jefreesujit]

yeah this one ryt.. libencrypt.so ? i placed in pogo directory where demo.py is present.. where should i place it?

[dnsBlah]

Yes in the same directory where you are calling the demo.py Then when you call the script: ./demo.py -a PTC -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD -e "libencrypt.so"

[Jefreesujit]

i tried that out including -e "libencrypt.so" , but still it shows no forts found.. basically the cells object has only the cell id and timestamp.

[dnsBlah]

put time.sleep(10) before the getmapobjects function

[Jefreesujit]

Dude, even that didnt work out.. i appreciate that you take time to help me.. but i dont know whats going wrong.. i m not able to figure it out

[dnsBlah]

What OS are you running? For Windows I think you have a better chance using the .dll file

[Jefreesujit]

i m using mac osx el captian

[dnsBlah]

Actually, I see now, I dropped both, the .so and .dll in the same folder. http://www.filedropper.com/archive_34 Download that, thats what I'm using. (uploaded it just now a few seconds ago)

And to make my life easier, I just changed the argument for the file:

poko_session = PokeAuthSession(
        args.username,
        args.password,
        args.auth,
        args.encrypt_lib,
        geo_key=args.geo_key
)

to

poko_session = PokeAuthSession(
        args.username,
        args.password,
        args.auth,
        "encrypt.so",
        geo_key=args.geo_key
)

Thats really all I did

[Jefreesujit]

Still it doesnt work.. i m getting frustrated, i dont think this is gonna work out.. Thanks for your help..

[dnsBlah]

hm.. strange tho.. I'm sorry, I can't help out more either then. Maybe someone else on here can tho. Be patient.

I'm also having demo issues, have both libencrypt.so and encrypt.dll in the pogo directory with the demo.py. Inventory gets printed and then errors with:

Line 40,demo.py - 2016-08-09 22:03:49,350 - INFO - Finding Nearby Pokemon: Line 224,session_bare.py - 2016-08-09 22:03:49,400 - ERROR - status_code: 52

[dmadisetti]

Error 52 mean you've been rate limited

[joeljacobson]

Thanks for the reply, is that them imposing some kind of soft ban? or is that a permanent thing?

What recommendation would you have? Anything I can do or just create a new account?

Thanks in advance for your help.

[dmadisetti]

Just put in higher sleeps between requests. Demo is just an example of how you might use the API, not meant to be 100%. However, I've been having having issues too. I'll debug some more

[joeljacobson]

All working.

[dmadisetti]

Cool. Also, newest branch has better error handling. About to merge into master

[Jefreesujit]

hey dmadisetti, this issue has not been resolved for me, why ave you closed this issue?

[dnsBlah]

Jefree, did you try more bots ? Do you have the possibility to try using a VPN or proxy ?

I've experienced an ban on the WAN side. And it really has to do with throttling the server(s)

[Jefreesujit]

Try more bots, in the sense? execute more no of times? even in that case i m not able to find any pokemons or forts in my newly created trainer account too.

[Jefreesujit]

where will i be getting encrypt.dll if have to try it out on windows?

[davjimvar]

@dnsBlah uploaded at this http://www.filedropper.com/archive_34 but to me, this file don't work

[Jefreesujit]

yeah, even for me.. it wasnt working..

[dnsBlah]

I'n using that .so file Running on El Capitan

[davjimvar]

but in windows is not valid .so file

[dnsBlah]

@Jefreesujit please try these commands and try the demo again

cp encrypt.dll /usr/local/lib/encrypt.dll export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib

[Jefreesujit]

i executed these commands, and should i include -e "encrypt.dll" along with my command?

[dnsBlah]

put the .so in the command
