More XML errors
« on: July 12, 2008, 08:37:28 am »
Lately out of the blue ive been getting the Funcom XML error when the roster tries to update.  My bot has been working fine for a month with no errors. It just happened suddenly, did I miss a xml update? if not I could use a working one :)

Easy explanation: FC broke their XML server and didn't fix it yet.

Do they even have intentions of fixing them?

all I know is that its been like this for a week or 2.. so who knows.. maybe they changed something and broke it and dont even know that they broke it.. Has anyone attempted to get ahold of them to ask them about it?

Some problems that are being experienced from this IS:  Members are being deleted from the roster and are being set to annon..  If you have members that are complaining about this, just readd them to the roster by !member add {name}.   More and more people are being deleted every day from the numerous bots that I run, and the roster updates are failing.

Things are updating again. In the future if this happens again it would be possible to set your chached whois records to not expire by using some SQL:

UPDATE whois SET updated = UNIX_TIMESTAMP()+(86400*XXX);

This will set the updated field on the record to a timestamp that is XXX days in the future. I tried this on my bots and this fixed the lookup issues...because the records weren't expired my bots stopped trying to get XML data from people.anarchy-online.com.

Today I simply changed the sign on the SQL so that the records expired XXX days in the past:
UPDATE whois SET updated = UNIX_TIMESTAMP()-(86400*XXX);

I then ran my whois-update.php script as normal. Things are getting updated and should be getting back to normal soon.
