to redo the prices.last i just typed them and copied them into each individual box in the GUI... and then made sure they were all correct so that it would work. I COULD use NOTEPAD++ to edit them though but i just chose to use the GUI instead so that everything was done correctly.

Here are the commands that I have used:

trade.py update nima/rush -F -A

trade.py update nima/rash -F -A

trade.py update nima/bur -F -A

trade.py update branglal/skri -F -A

trade.py update branglal/gib -F -A

Odd, I didn't think the GUI would let you enter a number with a comma in it -- do you know how you managed to enter that value? (I'd like to make it so that it either translates it for you or at least warns you)

well when i did it with a comma and clicked the X to save it came out with a error in the command prompt

Has anyone got TD displaying info on their X52 (non-pro)? Or do you have to have the pro version?

I have the X52 Pro, so I can't speak to the non-pro.

However, the main thing is that your driver has to be the same *bits* at the python you're running. If you're running 32-bit python, you need to be running the 32-bit saitek drivers because ... they're a bit crap when it comes to driver support.

i dont think you typed the right command i should enter cause the word

Code:

python

only gives the following text

'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

The other thing you might want to do is look in

Code:

C:\Program Files\Saitek\DirectOutput\

and

Code:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Saitek\DirectOutput\

Do you have

a/ one or both directories?
b/ a directory called "SDK" in one of them?
c/ an "Examples" directory in the SDK folders?
d/ an SDK/Examples/Test/Test.Exe in one of them?

If you do - try running it. It gives you a list of recognized devices and you have to double click on the one you want to test. Then you can press buttons/etc to see if it recognizes them. It's supposed to work with the "soft" buttons under the MFD but it's broken and they have been giving me the run-around asking about fixes.

That has something to do with how you installed it, I think there's an option to "add python to the path" or something, and you chose not to, or haven't rebooted since it was installed

I'm running 32-bit python, I'll try upgrading to 64-bit tomorrow and see if I run into the same problem (I thought I *was* running 64-bit but I think early versions of TD depended on some MS library that was only available for 32 bit)

i have a Saitek\DirectOutput in both the "program files" and "program files (x86)" directories but the SDK is only in the "program files" directiry not the x86 one

this is what the test looks like

Also, if you'd be willing to be a guineapig to help figure out why this isn't working - would you mind going back to the saitek download page, and next to the "download driver" there is a "download software" button... try installing that and see if that makes it work.

I don't have that installed, but I think if you install it and then uninstall it, it leaves the necessary bit of the driver in-place.

Never mind - it is explicitly looking for the 32-bit version. I'll fix it tomorrow.

Alpha version of EDDN has been released by jamesremuscat

Brilliant. Jamesremuscat has released an Alpha version of EDDN - see my signature. That combined with viable OCR solutions out there (ie EliteOCR) means we get our market prices back. Now that the Alpha has been released I hope support for it will be coming in the tools - in this case Trade Dangerous.

getting a new error now when trying to import prices

Code:

trade.py import -i http://kfs.org/td/prices
NOTE: Rebuilding cache file: this may take a moment
*** INTERNAL ERROR: NOT NULL constraint failed: ShipVendor.station_id
CSV File: ShipVendor.csv:10
SQL Query: INSERT INTO ShipVendor (station_id,ship_id,cost) VALUES((SELECT Station.station_id FROM Station INNER JOIN System USING(system_id) WHERE System.name = ? AND Station.name = ?),(SELECT Ship.ship_id FROM Ship WHERE Ship.name = ?),?)
Params: ['Djendelis', 'Atwater Enterprise', 'Adder', '87808']


import -i --maddavo
NOTE: Rebuilding cache file: this may take a moment
*** INTERNAL ERROR: NOT NULL constraint failed: ShipVendor.station_id

SQL Query: INSERT INTO ShipVendor (station_id,ship_id,cost) VALUES((SELECT Station.station_id FROM Station INNER JOIN System USING(system_id) WHERE System.name = ? AND Station.name = ?),(SELECT Ship.ship_id FROM Ship WHERE Ship.name = ?),?)
Params: ['Djendelis', 'Atwater Enterprise', 'Adder', '87808']

and i did update the program and re-imported the new station and system files from Maddavo's site before i typed in the command

to fix it i had to delete it in the SourceTree and then delete the folder and then click the clone button again on your site
but then it gets errors saying:

Code:

import.prices:12883 Unrecognized STAR/Station, 'BHIL MINA/MOHMAND GATEWAY'.
import.prices:12977 Unrecognized STAR/Station, 'BHIL MINA/STURCKOW DOCK'.

import.prices:37855 Unrecognized STAR/Station, 'KHANCI/BLOOMFIELD COLONY'.
import.prices:37995 Unrecognized STAR/Station, 'KHANCI/TANI COLONY'.
import.prices:41539 Unrecognized STAR/Station, 'LEMASTSHI/LONCHAKOV DOCK'.

import.prices:60453 Unrecognized STAR/Station, 'MURACING/BABBAGE HORIZONS'.
import.prices:60617 Unrecognized STAR/Station, 'MURACING/HERZFELD GATEWAY'.

import.prices:82381 Unrecognized STAR/Station, 'WEN KUANEI/NIVEN RELAY'.
import.prices:84259 Unrecognized STAR/Station, 'WOLF 46/FRANKLIN DOCK'.

so when i tried to import the station and system files again im getting the same error i started with.....

You need to manually add two stations to the Station.csv file, I have let Maddavo know they are missing from his files.

'Djendelis','Atwater Enterprise',0
'HIP 87369','Carey Port',0

then the prices will import correctly

move the error out of the way so i can see the actual numbers you typed in the program

DRY411S · Dec 15, 2014

Looking at that failed query message, and that something is null that shouldn't be, I'd guess that the 'Djendelis', 'Atwater Enterprise' station and/or the 'Djendelis' system are either missing from station.csv or system.csv respecively, or there's a typo/mismatch between the spelling in the system.csv, station.csv and ShipVendor.csv

I don't beleive that TradeDangerous makes any use of the ShipVendor.csv file. It's safe to remove the rows from that, but leave the first line.
