Economist script fails with index error 0.6.17

MTBSJC · 10-13-2009, 04:12 PM

I uninstalled 0.6.12 and installed 0.6.17.
Economist script fails with the following messages:
ERROR: Conversion Error: <b>Failed</b>: Fetch news from The Economist

Looks like Econoomist is now requiring membership to access the economist.com/printedition URL. The content appears to still be there, but only accessible via the left side menu on the home page. Is beautiful_soup capable of dealing with the content of that div?

It's already fixed, will be in next release.

It looks like the error persists with v. 0.6.18?

I uninstalled previous version of Calibre to do a clean install of o.6.18 but get the following error message. (By the way, the newer updates of Calibre are awesome!)

Works for me, in fact I'm reading last weeks economist right now

Did you put in a correct username and password?

plexusnexus · 10-18-2009, 04:13 PM

Yes, I still get the error message. I'm sure I am putting the right username and pw, this is odd

The error message remains the same (see below). Very odd.

Should I uninstall / reinstall calibre?

That error is indicating the log in is not successful. Are you sure you are using the builtin economist recipe and not a custom one?
