I figured it out and this is very strange. When I used the connect to database wizard it added "mysql:" at the beginning of the Connection Url. I'm not sure why some of my connection to database files say "Connection String" and some say "Connection Url". In order to get it working, I had to take out "mysql:". I think this has something to do with v4 vs v5. This is very confusing and I hope this gets cleared up. I wasted 15 hours on this.

I take that back even compiling in Ubot 4 doesn't work.

Thanks. That did work, I think it has something to do with one of my plugins. It could be the "Ultimate Ubot Plugin", because if I compile with Ubot 4, it works in Windows 10 but if I compile with Ubot 5, it doesn't.

Hi Guys, Just wondering if anyone has had this issue. I created my bot on a Windows 8.1 machine and it runs fine, I compiled it and moved it to a Windows 10 machine and when I use the /auto parameter it immediately closes after opening. If I take out /auto it opens fine and I can manually press the run button and everything works. Is there some prerequisite for running on Windows 10? .Net Framework or something? I have .NET Framwork 2.0, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.6 installed.

When is your next major update release date? I'd like to purchase but I am waiting to learn about the latest features.

Nevermind I just saw that it's possible to send chrome parameters.

Is it possible to disable css, images, and js, and flash with ExBrowser?

Just figured it out in case someone else reads this one day. To do what I was looking for above I used: //*[starts-with(@id,'item_')] More info on xpath here: http://edutechwiki.unige.ch/en/XPath_tutorial_-_basics

Is it possible to use wildcards with xpath? I'm used to scraping items like this: id=item_* where the * can be any character.

Thanks deliter! I actually have aymen's plugin I'm going to try the xpath parser, if that doesn't work I'll check out yours. Thanks a lot. Honestly, I never really understood what xpath is so I always overlook it.

Thanks CJ, I'm going to look into Regex. Good idea!

I'm tired of my "new browsers" crashing and I only use them to load html from variables for scraping. Is it possible to scrape the variables without load html? I'm going to test using headless, but maybe someone here has knows how to just skip loading html altogether. Thanks!

I've been killing myself for an hour now trying to figure out how to upload a photo on a tweet, has anyone figured it out?

I brought my upgrade to developer edition on black friday. I couldn't pass up the deal. I was going to upgrade anyway, just made me do it faster.

Is there a way to save a ubot table as an HTML Table? I want to send myself an email with table contents, but I would like to format the way the email looks by using HTML. I was thinking to just do a loop that adds a line of tr and td tags for every table row adding the table cell contents, but maybe there's a more efficient way to do this. Maybe this should be a new command "Save table as HTML"

I haven't moved to Ubot 5 for the same reasons, but oddly I'm getting so many browser crashes in 4 now. I mean it's getting to the point where it's happening everytime I run a complicated bot. Either 1)It's not reading list items correctly or 2)the browser is crashing after so many loops. It's to the point where I disable CSS, Flash, JavaScript and clear cookies in every loop, running any browser actions in a new browser. I LOVE this program but hitting this wall really sucks especially after taking so much time to learn this and beginning to master it. It's got me thinking to try Ubot 5, but

Just got a message from support, here's a link that seem to be helpful. http://wiki.ubotstudio.com/wiki/UI_html_panel

So I just upgraded to Dev Edition, but now I'm curious on how to integrate my HTML code with Ubot. Is there documentation out there about this? I've already contacted support also. Just information like when creating a text area how to do you set the variable. I saw from code snippets on the forum it would be variable="blah" fillwith="blah", but I'm sure there's so much more than I can do with explanations. Like how about creating drop down menu's from lists or displaying dynamic data. My goal is to build a full application without the need of learning PHP, I figure if this program can

Problem Solved. I had an open node! Ubot should check these things and prompt before a person can compile and save!

Hey Guys I have 1 compiled bot that will not run. The "Run" button is green, but whenever I click it nothing happens. Other compiled bots work just fine. I've tried to re-compile this one a few times. Is there anything that I could be missing? Thanks!

I'm so confused.

Is there a way to update compiled bots? I'm creating a bot that I will give away for free. The only issue is, when I fix bugs or do updates, how can my users seamlessly get the update?

Thanks @Hello that was useful.

I've seen some outdated posts on proxies so I want to ask you guys, what are the best proxy services as of September 2013? It would be nice to not only know the companies, but what you like about the companies and maybe some things newbies to proxies should look out for. Thanks!
