That was it. It's a very good start. I got signs of life now.

However, the titles of all guild members are now blank.

I've been looking for something similar to this, but not really tied to the WowRoster project.

I was looking for some php code to grab the xml pages, such as http://armory.wow-europe.com/#character ... er&n=Vdera

Then parse that into an array which can then be used on guild websites to display information about the characters, just much simpler than the Armory.

Is anyone willing to show me how this would be done?

Thanks in advance!

This may be what you have in mind.
Or at least a starting point.

I got some signs of life as well.

Lots of 'Critical Incomplete Data' stuff too.. but its more data than I had before

I think there may be a problem with reputation parsing, but I'll be damned if I can figure out where...

The data is coming from the armory ok, but it's being lost in translation sometime before it gets written to the database.

Check the Rep tab on this toon to see the symptoms:

That simply means if you load up that character in Armory, nothing exists for them. Armory only updates a profile when you logout. So if some of your guildees haven't played their characters in a few weeks, that data won't be in Armory, and therefore won't be able to synch.

Have you downloaded the new version? It *should* be fixed by that. If not, just update the guild info through the regular upload functions and that will restore it.

About the CRITICAL ERROR: Incomplete Data for Character.

This happens for every single character in the guild, including myself.

2 things...

People who get the:
1) "CRITICAL ERROR - socket not connected"

Make sure you only have armory.worldofwarcraft.com, DO NOT add http://.

2) CRITICAL ERROR - no root XML node found
You only need Content-Length if you are doing a POST. In functions.general.php change the following:
Code: Select all
$headers = "GET $request HTTP/1.0\r\n" . "Host: $host\r\n". (($sendAsBrowser) ? "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.2) Gecko/20070219 Firefox/2.0.0.2\r\n" : "") . "Connection: close\r\n". "Content-Length: " . strlen($request) . "\r\n" . "\r\n" . $request;

to:

Code: Select all
$headers = "GET $request HTTP/1.1\r\n" . "Host: $host\r\n". (($sendAsBrowser) ? "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.2) Gecko/20070219 Firefox/2.0.0.2\r\n" : "") . //"Content-Length: " . strlen($request) . "\r\n" . "Connection: close\r\n". "\r\n";

and it should work. YAY!

Thanks Amannim!

It looks like it's not sending armory.worldofwarcraft.com in the get request. It doesn't have to do with the # symbol.

I can't even get it to activate. I put the "&Activate=true" as instructed, but it doesn't do anything. I've tried Firefox and IE both. In IE it gives me the new IE7 version of a 404 and in Firefox, it just gives a blank white screen.

And then still says I need to activate it.

Did I miss something really easy? Prove me stupid, please.

http://sok.bajah.com/roster

(I created a fresh new roster and started from there for testing, so it's just a guild with no player updates)

it should be just http://sok.bajah.com/roster/addon.php?r ... ivate=true . However, it does take awhile to load - it could be up to 10 or 15 minutes.

And I think that's my biggest problem right now. My browser (be it Firefox or IE7) will timeout before the process completes... Our guild has 428 members...
