Error/Bug when importing person
  • Hi everyone and admin.

    I been using CraigWorks apps for about 2 weeks now and very satisfied with it. Plus it's free. I really am thankful for admin for sharing this awesome app.

    I noticed however, (maybe) a bug when importing some actors from IMDb.

    These people are popular. It's impossible for IMDb to not have their profiles.

    So I did a little observation. Some of these actor that CraigWorks failed to import mostly have a Roman numerals behind their names, in brackets. Here are some of them:
    - Tim Robbins (I)
    - Chris Evans (V)
    - Adam Sandler (I)
    - Drew Barrymore (I)
    - Donald Sutherland (I)
    - Anne Hathaway (I)
    -Bradley Cooper (I)
    - Jennifer Garner (I)
    - Morgan Freeman (I)
    - Michael J. Fox (I)

    and so on.

    However, some of the actors also cannot be imported for an unknown reason. When editing their profiles manually, I got this error:
    "Person had problems importing. The following problems occurred: Could not read page. Bruce Willis: IMDB Person site may have changed."

    Here are some of em:
    - Courteney Cox
    - Bruce Willis
    - John Cusack
    - Vin Diesel
    - Russell Crowe
    - Maggie Q

    Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong?

    Thanks admin.
  • IMDB made some enhancements to their site which broke the IMDB person scrapper. I will upload a version that works today.
