hello Nev,

I got this from just running a refreshment of the watchlist:

AuctionSieve version 1.6.3.4
java.io.FileNotFoundException: ebayitem.html (Het proces heeft geen toegang tot het bestand omdat

het bestand door een ander proces wordt gebruikt)

at java.io.FileOutputStream.open(Native Method)

Am I doing something wrong?

No, nothing wrong.

Every time the program scrapes, it saves the web page to a file. This is so I can help track down any problems people have when items aren't scraped properly (ie when eBay changes page designs).

Anyway, previously if the file couldn't be saved I'd ignore it. Now I've added code to complain.

Did you install the app as a different user?

Ok, using babelfish to translate the dutch, I think I've figured this one out.
Will put a fix in the next release.

And BTW why are your error messages in dutch when you live in Prague?

[Fluffmaister]

Hahaha, you got me there nev

First, complements for figuring out it was dutch in the first place. Not many australians would know what it is or sounds like :)

Second, My version of windows is in dutch because I am Dutch. I'm an exchange student here in Prague till next Christmas. And due to the incredible amounts of time I have available, I've been searching ebay more frequently (and thus using auctionsieve)

So please don't use Czech, I'd be totally lost :)

I stayed in Rotterdam with a friend for a month back in '95.

Didn't really pick up any dutch though.
About the only word I remember is Afstand Bediening.

We had a serviced apartment and had to check off the inventory - in dutch! We had a rudimentary pocket dictionary and when we tried to translate Afstand Bediening we got "Space service", and we're like "What?!".

Eventually figured out it was the remote control.

And how did you like Rotterdam, coz that´s the place of my University
Erasmus University Rotterdam. Lived there only 3 years so far, but he....

Ah, yes, the space service always a good thing to have when you're watching t.v. and don't want to get out of bed

It was fun. We went to a nightclub on a boat, did quite a bit of cycling, ate way too many pizzas from the butcher's below our flat and watched a lot of tv. (I hadn't really had a holiday for 3 years after leaving uni.)

Fix should be in the latest release.
Let me know if it happens again.
