I become a Directory not found Exception for folder lookup "programdata/argus tv/xmltv/imported"
Unbenannt.PNG
Unbenannt.PNG (37.37 KiB) Viewed 16733 times
you should check if the Directory exists
similar so

Code: Select all

if(!System.IO.Directory.Exists(@"somewhere\something"))
{
     System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(@"somewhere\something");
}

Yep you are right, I will make a fix.
Problem is, If its first time you are importing a xmltv file to Argus, then the "imported" folder dosent exsist.

Tried this program with the test download before setting up a subscription but it doesn't work.

The Importer fails with the error "Error No Web Connection" although there is nothing wrong with connectivity for other apps, and downloading the file directly via Firefox works ok.

I have a sneaky suspicion based on the error, and the fact all my systems have multiple interfaces, that this program is only checking the first network interface (as defined in device manager) and failing because that device is disabled or not directly connected to the web. I have tried changing the priority of the adapters around but it makes no difference.

Also, the "last 32 bytes" part of your instruction on the first page is a bit vague. Your average user isn't going to know what that is. You'd be better off rewording that to "code section of download URL" or something a bit plainer and/or provide an example in your post.

I have updated my first post, now it should be more clear. :P

Please check if you use the test tokin I have written.
The program would also write "Error No Web Connection" if your tokin is wrong.

Hi providers, thanks for the program.

I have the "Error No Web Connection" message too I'm afraid.

I've created the "C:\ProgramData\ARGUS TV\XMLTV\Imported" folder, .Net Framework 4 both "client profile" and "extended" are installed.
I've "just" pasted in the code part of the test link - i.e. c81e728d9d4c2f636f067f89cc14862c

I then hit "update" and "run" and this is the result:

64bit OS
TaskManager Updated
Downloading XMLTV File

Error No Web Connection
--------

Any ideas?
I'm using Windows 7 64bit.

Thanks.
