Bug on novel cover due to thumbnail handling.

[lyram21]

bitmap empty... and the chapter links are all red...

[Nandaka]

can you open the site from phone browser?

[lyram21]

yes i can open it without any problems

[belldandu]

It appears that i have this exact same issue too and i load the site just fine in a browser.
Samsung galaxy note 5 & samsung galaxy tab s2. Both are using Android 6.0.1 firmware

[belldandu]

App version 1.1.45

[belldandu]

It should be noted that all the chapters say they were last updated 6 years ago. And when you set (download hi res image) instead of getting "bitmap empy" you get a rediculously pixelated image for the cover.

[belldandu]

Should also be noted that some projects like this one https://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Seikoku_no_Ryuu_Kishi are not shown in the main list of the app no matter how much i refresh. Which makes me beleive the app is pulling from an outdated source.

[belldandu]

Managed to get above project to show after playing around with settings but chapters still are red

[belldandu]

Aha here's a screenshot of an error

[belldandu]

[belldandu]

Just a heads up i am online.

[belldandu]

Ah as it turns out the app is trying to connect and grab from a dead server which is why its failing. They got a new server on october 10th.

[Nandaka]

From the screenshot, it shows that the connection is refused. The ip address shown in the error message supposed to be the new server. [image: Inline image 1] [image: Inline image 2]

cover image = bitmap empty

This one is a bug because of changes on thumbnail handling.Using HiRes cover in Settings -> General can fix this.

[lyram21]

the images are fixed sir ghen how about the chapters?

[belldandu]

Is there a reason you guys dont use the mediawikia api instead of scraping the site?

[Nandaka]

@belldandu
I'm using both api and scraping.

API portion to retrieve body content and update info.
Scraping from the api return to parse the novel structure/chapters from the novel detail page (this one I'm not sure how to retrieve the structure using api).

The contents itself is returned by api call.

The image issue is already fixed but all my chapter are still redlink and cannot be seen at all, when I open the page, it shows " The page you specified doesn't exist"

[danieltanfh95]

Just curious why is the IP address used instead of the domain name?

[yuinyaa]

@shadowys I am not too well verse in computer program language

[danieltanfh95]

@yuinyaa Actually I was pinging @Nandaka sorry.
