Ketarin 1.0.5 (beta)

[CybTekSol]

CybTekSol... you're begging to sound like a 'glass is FULL' kinda person. LOL... scared with some changes ? Smile ! =)

Never scared of changes as long as they are improvements, but you must admit, Ketarin has come a LONG way! Sure, it can be better as almost everything can, although it will adequately get the job done for me now.

[FranciscoR]

I DO admit and agree... but I would also like to race the NASCAR series. =)

Flo,

 

Can I use the use the second variable URL as referer, e.g. {app1} ? This seems to work, but log is a bit ambiguous

[floele]

How do you mean? I don't quite understand.

Flo,

25-03-2009 15:14:05: SAS: Using referer: {app1}

If you mean HTTP referrer, yes it works FranciscoR, I have been doing it for quite some time now... see my CNET template for example. I have tested it with sites that have to have a referrer and it works...

[FranciscoR]

Example:

 

I have 1 job with 3 variables.

 

var1, URL= http://...A

var2, URL= http://...B

var3, URL= http://...C

 

#1 If referer = 'empty' and if a HTTPreferer is needed, Ketarin will use var1 URL (default). My question is

 

#2 If referer = '{var2}', will Ketarin use 'http://...B' ? I don't quite understand how referer handles 'variable replacements' - nothing is logged in referer line, Using referer: {app1}.

 

 

Edit:

 

@CybTekSol

You're using *only* {redir}, if you use as HTTPreferer 'http://...{varX}', with varX=10, will this result in http://...10 or will Ketarin use the first variable URL ? Anyway I always have an error if I use 'http://...{varX}{varY}'

You cannot use variables in referers so far.

[FranciscoR]

Nice to know, thanks.

[FranciscoR]

Flo, yesterday I was looking at Ohloh and I haven't noticed that you had implemented

 

*Reset cached content when changing the variable used as change indicator

This cache reset with {version} as change indicator seems to be causing some problems, specifically downloading twice (twice exactly) the same app:

Thanks !

So far I cannot reproduce any CIV related problems. If you can, let me know.

[FranciscoR]

CIV=change indicator value ? The unhandled exception I can reproduce, the change indicator issue I reported too (I'll provide XML and log when I do).

[FranciscoR]

Couldn't we use variables/environment variables with log name ? This way we could have

 

log_{MMM}-{dd}_{HH}-{mm}.txt

 

Do know I can do this with a batch file...

Edit:

 

I don't need it anymore (created a tc template w/ writedate/time).

[floele]

The unhandled exception is not so much of a problem I'd say.

[FranciscoR]

Hum ? =) For me it isn't, right now I'm starting Ketarin with a log argument.

[floele]

Well, if that exception occurs, you are doing something wrong (saving log to a path you can't save to).

[FranciscoR]

Probably. When I started playing with /log I didn't knew if I had to provide name&format (my mistake =)) , and I started experiencing with

 

/log=d:\

More info please ? I want to do the same thing as you did.

[FranciscoR]

Nothing special really, but this is a TotalCommander template.

[Stalker]

Not automated then ? Too bad. I wanted to have a scheduled job run and save the timestamped log to a specified folder.

[floele]

I guess that I'll just allow variables (global ones, includes date/time) for the log path.

[FranciscoR]

Not automated then ?

Well sort of, for me it's Ctrl+M + Start. I don't intend to keep every log.

 

I guess that I'll just allow variables (global ones, includes date/time) for the log path.

That would be ideal.

[FranciscoR]

Flo, I do need to use variables in httpreferer, I'm getting more and more errors on Sourceforge downloads, and all the problems are gone if I use a referer like

 

http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?groupname=portableapps&filename=7-Zip_Portable_4.65.paf.exe&use_mirror=fastbull

 

Is this possible ?

[floele]

Does it actually matter if the filename parameter is correct?

[FranciscoR]

What parameter ? I'll provide XML so you can test yourself:

As you can see, right now I'm using a generic mirror referer (using no referer doesn't help either). This produces ocasional errors, you will see them if you try to update this app during a few days. When a error is produced, use the static referer of my previous post (if fastbull is unavailable replace mirror='fastbull' with heatnet/dfn/garr... ) and you will see the difference. No errors/timeouts.
