It's blowing up!

I appreciate the comments here, please make sure to link to tracker issues. If there's not a tracker issue describing the problem it's not possible for us to look into it! V5 Stealth is the most stable version we've released. It includes both the Awesomium Browser and the Cef Browser, as well as commands like Reset Browser which clear the memory. You can use headless in stealth regardless of the browser you are using.

Clint, V5 Stealth includes not only a new browser framework, but also the old browser for compatibility. Your scripts should work in both. Additionally, there are many significant new features, including a new thread spawn option for simpler multithreading, as well as incognito mode for Devs. You can see more information about this great new version here: http://network.ubotstudio.com/blog/ubot-stealth-has-arrived/

You might think that Record isn't functioning because you are unaware of what it is meant to record. The record feature is specifically built to help you automate form filling as well as textbox and drop-down selection. It records interactions with the elements on the page that you see when you hit the record button. If you change pages, like by clicking a link while you are recording, you will need to press record again. It can only record actions on one page at a time. If you believe it is not functioning, please let us know in support. Thanks!

We apologize for the downtime this morning while we complete maintenance on our servers. Thank you for your patience!

You could build your own plugin, which is similar to ExBrowser. That could be free. You can look at our Plugin API here: http://wiki.ubotstudio.com/wiki/Plugin_Development

Just to clarify - Is the problem that you don't know the best method for organizing, or that one of the methods you're using isn't functioning properly?

It looks like there's quite a bit more to this script. If it's freezing after ~50, could you open a support ticket with more information so we can see if there's something wrong with 1) the page you're using, 2) the rest of the script, or 3) something on ubot's end?

As pash says, the best way to minimize this time is to make sure to disable all plugins you are not using in that bot.

The order was completed, but @itexpert it looks like the purchase did not come with instructions. Much appreciated if you could send those to the buyer.

We are likely adding it to both. Will update.

webpro - is this still happening? Is it happening with both element selector and with image recognition? can you give me a page to test where it always happens?

Great question here! We're all interested in what others have done to get around the overzealous security inside of Windows/Chrome.

also make sure to try using the chrome 39 browser

Interesting, thanks for narrowing this down. Will test the same thing. Any idea which browser you were in?

Anything you can tell us about the particulars of the crashing would be VERY helpful!

Hey Nicholas, Really sorry there is an issue here. Thank you so much for posting the script. This makes it very easy to find the problem. Re-producing this script on my AWS, i do see some slowdown also (in the first 36 scrapes). It looks like there might be some issues with the size of the bot. If you wouldn't mind, let's continue the bug fixing over at the tracker (tracker.ubotstudio.com). I'm opening a tracker issue for you and sending you more information via private message. We'll work on this asap!

This has the best title of any post i've ever seen. A+ I had a bot that was crashing once - it was driving me crazy. It’d run for almost exactly 3-4 hours, it was scraping data, and it would either slow down a lot at some point or crash (usually it just slowed down). I just kept restarting it like you probably do - then, i realized that instead of dumping the data into a file and clearing every time a new page loaded (which was what i intended), it was just adding to this huge table inside UBot's memory. It was also saving to a file, but not clearing. UBot hated that, and it was poor progra

Sounds like some reproducible stuff in there that we'd love to see in the tracker !

Are you able to narrow down specific commands causing any crashes so we can take a look at them? If so, please put in tracker. Thanks!

If you're noticing any issues with new versions, please let us know at support. "Decline in stability" is hard to reproduce. Thanks! Jason

Nick, thanks for pointing this out, and it’s been pointed out a few times as well in other threads. While these files are useful for some, it’s unlikely to solve everyone’s individual issues. We strongly recommend that anyone with ‘issues’ please open a support ticket / tracker issue reporting specifically what they are experiencing, so we can work on a resolution.

icoder, If you're experiencing bugs you will receive help by reporting them in the tracker or in support. Francis, Please let us know if this issue is still occurring via a support ticket and when it was occurring specifically, so we can work with you to resolve it. Thanks!

All, please be sure to read the post mentioned. We have covered this topic there.
