MapLoaderGUI -- Stopped Working?

[bobcurtiss2003-2]

Hello,

I'm trying to use MapLoaderGUI to download beacon data from wigle.net.  
I was able to do this successfully a few months ago, however now I'm  
getting a silent failure -- and the hsqlmap.data file has a file size  
of zero bytes.

Has anyone else experienced this?

An admin at wigle.net has confirmed that they did make some changes to  
the format of their query results page during the past couple of  
months. Since MapLoaderGUI is essentially a "screen scraper", I  
suspect that the format change has resulted in this silent failure.

Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Bob Curtiss

Hi Bob,

I have never used that part of place lab but I would guess that there  
is a parser somewhere for MapLoaderGUI that needs to be changed. Thats  
the way it is for the parts I have experience for anyway. So you would  
need to go into MapLoaderGUI.java and trace back where the data comes  
in to where it is parsed. Then update the parser code.

Again, only a guess though.
