Category: other Group: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: weblinkchecker.py doesn't report archive.org links anymore Initial Comment: Weblinkchecker does not report archive.org links anymore. On my run on Sept 26, it still reported the archive links, on Oct 3 weblinkchecker reported not a single (from several hundred dead links on that run). For example http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.gruene-muenchen.de/landesverband.64… is available, but is no reported on http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diskussion:Theresa_Schopper During the run weblinkchecker gives the output: Consulting the Internet Archive for http://www.gruene-muenchen.de/landesverband.6417.0.html python version.py Pywikipedia [http] trunk/pywikipedia (r5945, Oct 10 2008, 11:16:07) Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Oct 5 2008, 19:24:49) [GCC 4.3.2] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: 2008-10-21 23:48 Message: Fixed. The reason was that the Internet Archive now uses GZIP compression. urllib2 doesn't handle the decompression for us, so we have to do it ourselves. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=603138&aid=215824…
