Updated

Issue fixed with b4 refresh version.Thank you floele These are the ones i use.Take it as an unofficial list: Download Separately {property:ExclusiveDownload} Version {version:multireplace:,:/,-,_,(,),b,c,f,g,h,j,k,m,o,q,s,w,y,x,z,January,February,March,April,May,June,July,August,September,October,November,December:.,.,.,,,B,C,F,G,H,J,K,M,O,Q,S,W,Y,X,Z,01,02,03,04,05,06,07,08,09,10,11,12} Shared? {property:ShareApplication} FileHippo {property:FileHippoId} Has Command? {property:ExecuteCommand} Shareable? {property:CanBeShared} No Re-download {property:IgnoreFileInformation} Beta? {property:DownloadBeta} UA? {property:UserAgent} Website? {property:WebsiteUrl} File Extension {file:ext} There are more but i havent hunted them all down.The UA? is my own. Btw if someone knows the one for Setup(last tab) then i would be grateful.The Has Command? posted above only displays command that run on the third tab(Command)

Hey-hey .Updated to the fixed b4 and it's working now Intially i updated to the fixed b4 right away but i didn't test the import after that.Now that i did it seems to be working.Atleast importing the prototype template works.Im unable to import the one in online database tho(same error - problably brackets messed up there).As for the local ones - i can now import these too with no problem. EDIT: You could use {refer1} in the website field as default in the template.It takes nicely to download page of the latest version.

You're using b4 too correct? Don't know why is this? :S

Yep not only are the commands imported.Bigger problem is that Global Variables are not imported: http://ketarin.canneverbe.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=616 I mean the command you can atleast paste quicky but GV-s take time to re-enter even with pasting.

I can confirm it works now as of 1.6b4

Hmm it seems i can't edit a single app.When i click edit in rightclick menu nothing happens. Me thinks this is due to some corrupted things in my db.I initially could not import anything at all but i determined the faulty app by trial and error.Now i will try the same.When i used fresh db and imported from online db then edit worked. EDIT: Whew.A lot of manual work but it's done.Everything works again.Seems that b4 did not like b3 settings for some reason.On a clean db File-Settings-Import resulted in EDIT command not working in rightclick menu. Seems tho that i can't import some apps from online database that are based on a prototype templates.Also several of my previously saved templates are no longer importable either from online db or local drive.Says XML error. Related: http://ketarin.canneverbe.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=5013#p5013

Im unable to import this xml to Ketarin.After i select the details i get a note.After clicking ok its blank and after another ok an error. Can someone replicate this?.Not sure if it's due to 1.6b4?

That's why i use the biggest mirrors.So far they have always had all files i needed.Besides during new app creation i can already see if the mirror has the files or not.

This would be nice indeed but it's not something i'll miss terribly.Mostly there are few that fail so manually selecting them is not much of a problem for me.

Yes.I tend to use the biggest mirrors.Smaller ones could have more downtime. For my downloads i use either Mesh(Germany) or Sunet(Sweden).

Awesome.It has been kinda quiet around here so i was thinking that maybe floele was cooking up another beta for us to test

No need for this i think.I have global variable named {UserAgent} and works just fine.You can make your own global variables the way you like.

I think i'll post a guide how to make SF downloads the way i do.It's really simple and requires no referers or user agents.Max 2-3 variables and generally very fast as all data is taken from mirror's plain text page.

Alex i just made a very simple xml.Try and see if it works for you.I used OVH as it's a France based SF mirror so should be the best speed for you <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <Jobs> <ApplicationJob xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" Guid="836246b7-6844-4bf3-b472-b1a2b32d8447"> <SourceTemplate><![CDATA[]]></SourceTemplate> <WebsiteUrl>http://sourceforge.net/projects/mpc-hc/files/MPC%20HomeCinema%20-%20Win32/</WebsiteUrl> <UserAgent /> <UserNotes /> <LastFileSize>0</LastFileSize> <LastFileDate xsi:nil="true" /> <IgnoreFileInformation>true</IgnoreFileInformation> <DownloadBeta>Avoid</DownloadBeta> <DownloadDate xsi:nil="true" /> <CheckForUpdatesOnly>false</CheckForUpdatesOnly> <VariableChangeIndicator /> <CanBeShared>true</CanBeShared> <ShareApplication>false</ShareApplication> <ExclusiveDownload>false</ExclusiveDownload> <HttpReferer /> <SetupInstructions> <SetupInstruction xsi:type="StartProcessInstruction"> <EnvironmentVariables /> <FileName>{file}</FileName> <Parameters>/verysilent</Parameters> <WaitForExit>true</WaitForExit> </SetupInstruction> </SetupInstructions> <Variables> <item> <key> <string>version</string> </key> <value> <UrlVariable> <RegexRightToLeft>false</RegexRightToLeft> <VariableType>StartEnd</VariableType> <Regex /> <Url>http://ovh.dl.sourceforge.net/project/mpc-hc/MPC%20HomeCinema%20-%20Win32/?C=N;O=D</Url> <StartText>Parent Directory</a></td><td> </td><td align="right"> - </td></tr> <tr><td valign="top"><img src="/icons/folder.gif" alt="[DIR]"></td><td><a href="MPC-HC%20v</StartText> <EndText>_32%</EndText> <Name>version</Name> </UrlVariable> </value> </item> </Variables> <ExecuteCommand>"{file}" /verysilent</ExecuteCommand> <ExecutePreCommand /> <ExecuteCommandType>Batch</ExecuteCommandType> <ExecutePreCommandType>Batch</ExecutePreCommandType> <Category>Video Player</Category> <SourceType>FixedUrl</SourceType> <PreviousLocation /> <DeletePreviousFile>true</DeletePreviousFile> <Enabled>true</Enabled> <FileHippoId /> <LastUpdated xsi:nil="true" /> <TargetPath>{Apps x86}</TargetPath> <FixedDownloadUrl>http://ovh.dl.sourceforge.net/project/mpc-hc/MPC%20HomeCinema%20-%20Win32/MPC-HC%20v{version}_32%20bits/MPC-HomeCinema.{version}.x86.exe</FixedDownloadUrl> <Name>Media Player Classic Home Cinema x86</Name> </ApplicationJob> </Jobs>

BINGO! .Seems that it's not a problem on my end at all.Thanks for letting me know that you have problems too.I was thinking that im slowly starting to see hallucinations here.Wonder why noone else has complained about this yet?. And yes nearly all my apps are shared(exept few old/local ones).I can now save all changes. Nope i have full read/write rights across all my disks and im using admin account(UAC off)

Well i get the same crash by simply trying to view TOP50 apps from online database.Also just noticed that changes i make while Ketarin is running are not actually stored.When i reopen Ketarin all of my previous changes are gone. I took and manually corrected all broken CDATA brackets and other issues i could find.Then imported the xml into an empty Ketarin on a clean install(Virtual Machine) but got exactly the same error.I got this error even with empty Ketarin trying to view TOP50 on VM. As i said other Ketarin functions like updating,exports and installs seem to work fine despite this issue.

I think my issue has the same root cause: http://ketarin.canneverbe.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=647 I just checked and i too have inconsistent formatting regarding the brackets.Also the XML declaration appears in the middle of and app job several times like shown in the picture. + the mentioned <![CDATA[< instead of <![CDATA[][><

I rather think problem is at my end.Otherwise others would have reported the same thing. EDIT: 3rd type of error:

Thanks.Now i have to see how to do this via commandline

First got an error(quote 1) an then every time i do App-Edit-OK i get the second error(quote 2 and picture).After i click Continue everything goes as normal.When i click Quit Ketarin quits.Everything else works as expected so i have not noticed anything else bad(yet). Exeption text: #2

I noticed that with this: http://sourceforge.net/projects/sqlitebrowser/ I can issue the VACUUM command to be carried out on Ketarins database and i was wondering...could this have some negative effects on the long run?.I mean maybe Ketarin has reserved some free space on the database and i suddenly vacuum it then it could create problems? Im not too concerned that this won't make any huge difference(e.g gains are small).Im mainly concerned if it's ok to do on a regular basis?.I have issued the VACUUM command to my Firefox databases for more than a year on a regular basis and nothing has broken. When i tested it the database went from 450KB to 390KB (Little over 13% reduction).

Seems that you have specified that only .exe files should be copied to destination.But if no exe files are found(only folders) then no files or folders are copied to destination.Atleast this is what im thinking Also: .If you want to force copy anyway use /IS flag. Try this perhaps: robocopy "{root}\My Portable Apps\{appname}" "C:\Temp" /e /b /np EDIT: Exactly what Omniferum said .Tho you can customize copy by excluding on including files to be copied.That way you won't have to copy singe folder but you can still copy files you actually need.

1. I think so.Ketarin should replace this with the actual name before passing it to xcopy. 2. Im afraid that's not possible.Atleast as far as i know.Use: {f:dd}.{f:MM}.{f:yyyy} instead (In {version} textual content).Note that for this to work(at the moment) the file needs to be downloaded atleast once since the date is taken from a local file.So this won't work for any new apps you create.I use this when the app does not have any coherent version number.You can use your own preffered date format by combining the commands: http://wiki.ketarin.org/index.php/Special_variables EDIT: You can also set textual content to specific version number.Let's say the app does not have version number anywhere but it has progressed like 2.0 - 2.1 and so on and so you can set it to 2 or v2 to reflect the major version number.

Wow that's odd.First time seeing something like this. Perhaps this will help: http://sourceforge.net/projects/sqlitebrowser/
