I have a problem wich I after about one hour at the Microsoft Windows updates sites still can not fix.

"The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). Click on OK to terminate the application."

- Fix this by installing the newest version of .NET

I have downloaded the file, but I can not install it. The problem looks like the one that Elvean (the last poster) in the locked thread about WoWReader - the thread.

I have browsed aboud and fiddled with the upgrades for my windows but no luck. Anyone elve got this problem or a solution to it?
Thank you in advance :)

EDIT: Apparently it was my good/bad luck to do this on a day when Alla's was having issues - it seems to all be fixed now and I'm sure that if I have a couple drinks this will all be better! =)

Ok, not sure what's going on here. I'm a new user (although not sure this is going to be what I use if this is indicative of future issues) and can't seem to get this going correctly.

I've installed the executable in the proper places. I've logged onto the game with a character, then logged out of the game after verifying that the /wver is running (it was). Then I successfully uploaded the files. The lua did say n/a, 0, 0 - but there IS a lua file for the add on in the proper account file, so not sure what's up there.

Anyway, this is the funky part. I go to look at my profile and I cannot see anything except the background (the "framework" where the data goes). I start tweaking settings on my laptop to no avail. I use my secondary gaming system to view the page and voila, there the information is! Yay! But ... I still can't see it on my laptop or my main gaming system (if I wanted a gaming system on, I'd just look at the screen to see what I was wearing ... ).

I have now cleared all temporary files, restarted, deleted cookies and everything else I could think of. Along the way, I even managed to break the log in somehow (allah's says that I'm not logged in when I click on Your Characters, but I can browse to them via another page).

Please help before I go insane!

Keep getting "Protocol: 0" error and data will not load. Can upload manually though. Have re-installed the latest WowReader and Add-on, and also as a test deleted WR.LUA and WR2.LUA. Still the same error.

Can someone PLEASE explain to me why my sig banner below refuses to update? I run WoWreader. I follow the instructions for uploading the data to the Alla server. I check "My Characters" and it shows the correct level and data there. I patiently wait 8-10 hours for it to update every time I upload information. Heck if you click on the banner, it links you to the character profile and you can see the character is level 60. She has been for months. But that darn banner still says 57 and will not update. Can anyone help me?

Would it be possible to release a no install version of WoWReader in a zip?

Question: Why does it show my Rank as Knight-Lt when my "Permanent" Rank is Lt-Commander?

Question: Why does it show 14 Dishonorable kills when I have 0.

Thank you.

This has been bugging me since WoW 2.0 went live, but only just got round to mentioning it. Ever since the big patch whenever I look in my backpacks I get extremely long strings of numbers over any stackable items.

For instance if I open my quiver, I have 16 stacks of "200:0:0:0:0" Jagged Arrows, instead of just "200" jagged arrows. This seems to happen with any stackable item, eg I also have "3:0:0:0:0" of Ice Cold Milk.

Don't think its relevant but I'm looking at this with Firefox 2.0.0.1 on Windows XP SP2.


Seeing this also. Is the addon doing this during the upload or is this a website issue?

I seem to have trouble with a lag in uploaded data (mainly quests but occasionally items and bag contents) and also I don't seem to upload an image of my character (this is probably user error) any help on these matters would be greatly appreciated.

I have some of the problems that Meyan above has.
I've been using WoWReader for some time now, never had a problem. Until recently, when I returned from Christmas holiday.
Now nothing about my characters get uploaded. No lua exists in the account folder either. I've uninstalled my previous version and installed the latest one. Also typing /wver in the game shows the addon as running.

Any idea?

Just an FYI ... I am not having any problems with WowReader this is just for when you look at your profile online.

For a Hunter
The backgrounds of the talents tabs for survival and marksmanship are reversed. The content is correct, the "flying arrows" background for survival and the "forest" background for marksmanship should be reversed. It's been like that since I started using it so this isn't a new thing just figured you might want to know.

The only other thing that I noticed was that quantities on stacked items are showing up in an interesting colon notation. For example, for a stack of 20 Light Leather the quantity number displays as 20:0:0:0:0. Again not a big deal just thought I'd let you know.

I'm gettting the same message in the same circumstances.
#71 Jan 09 2007 at 12:30 PM Rating: Good
The error I'm getting is:


Connection error: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it

- when I press upload on WowReader.


Doing the manual upload gets me:

hash error


Help is appreciated. Additionally, you may want to reroute the link from the WoWreader help page to this one. It points to the thread closed back in November.

It seems that the new profile XML files are not being formed correctly. I have a program that I wrote that chokes on certain profiles and the line (and contents of it) always seem different.

For example, with my profile, trying to view the XML data in Firefox, I get this error:

Quote:
XML Parsing Error: not well-formed
Location: http://wow.allakhazam.com/profile.xml?2177185
Line Number 159, Column 6: <489>1</489>
-----^


And in IE7:

Quote:
The XML page cannot be displayed

Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A name was started with an invalid character. Error processing resource 'http://wow.allakhazam.com/profile.xml?2177185'. L...

<489>1</489>
-----^
class="m"> />
<base_spi>70</base_spi>
<base_sta>89</base_sta>
<base_str>52</base_str>
<class>Hunter</class>


And in my application:

Quote:
Name cannot begin with the '4' character, hexadecimal value 0x34. Line 159, position 6.


This section of the XML file is throwing the error:

Quote:
<itemSetCalc>
<489>1</489>

</itemSetCalc>


That line and position number (as well as the contents) are different for my other profiles or friend's profiles, but they all throw basically the same error.

Also, it seems skills aren't being inserted into the XML document properly.

Example from my profile:

Quote:
<skills>
<name>300</name>
<max>300</max>
<order></order>
<value></value>

</skills>


Looks like the information is being stored in the wrong order when creating the XML file.

Hope these issues get looked into soon. I know this is a pretty big change to the profile system. Just thought I'd throw that info out there.

Edit: Looks like these issues have been resolved, had a friend who updated his profile and parsing through it received no errors. I'll have to check mine when I get off work and can hopefully update (as I was getting an error uploading, the one about the connection being refused).

Anyway, since the skills are no longer being added to the XML file as names anymore and now are being added as IDs, I grabbed the IDs of the ones I'm needing, which are posted below if anyone needs the info.

Tradeskill IDs as follows:
Alchemy - 171
Blacksmithing - 164
Enchanting - 333
Engineering - 202
Herbalism - 182
Leatherworking - 165
Jewelcrafting - 755
Mining - 186
Skinning - 393
Tailoring - 197

Any time I attempt to upload my profile I get "Protocol Error: 0". I then try the manual upload option and get "hash error". Are there any fixes to this?

But now i want to upload again because there are some new items in my bags and he doesn't upload them. first he did upload him without any problems but then i went to see on the site, and the bags didn't contain the right info. But today the wowreader says that the server closed the connection does it refer to ure servers?

We used to store the textual value of the skills, we now store the numeric value of the skill, to make localization better supported. In the XML dump, I've re-added the skill name, though it's hard-coded to enUS for the moment.

I understand the use of the IDs. Although, not knowing the associated IDs for the skills I needed, took me a little searching ;)

Also, the malformed XML error seems to have resurfaced under my profile, exact same as my post above. Was working fine last night.
