ipko.com down

The siteini of ipko.com (Albania) is down (http://webgrabplus.com/epg-channels#s0)

It seems that the url is changed, they force https now instead of http. The new url is: https://ipko.com/epg/admin/programs.php?date=|urldate

When I manually query the URL I get back some data, but nevertheless the siteini doesn't work.

Maybe they have also changed the structure of the returned JSON file.

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thnx.

Thank you Balckbear199 for your patch.

I have observed that most channels have no EPG data at all. The site was down for some days, and then it became active again. I think they are updating it, as a result the siteini was not working. I am optimistic that in due time all channels will have EPG data.

Maybe somebody will do .ini file for grabbing? :)

It seems that ipko.com/epg is back again on the same url: https://www.ipko.com/epg/

I am using WebGrab+ with mono on ubuntu and for ipko.com channels I get the following error:
(Write: The authentication or decryption has failed.): SendFailure

I googled a bit and it results indicate that it is a certificate issue. I tried to install new certificates using mozroots --import but still no success. I also tried to import ipko's certificate using certmgr -ssl https://www.ipko.com but still I am experiencing the same issue.

Any ide(s) on how to solve this issue?

In my case, I kind of managed to solve this by circumventing the HTTPS traffic. In fact I created a PHP script that acts as a proxy. I pointed WebGrap to fetch the new data from the custom PHP script using HTTP while the PHP script fetches the HTML from the IPKO site using HTTPS.

This is the PHP script code, in my case I have named the file as ipko_epg.php:

<?php
        // create curl resource
        $ch = curl_init();
        $agent = 'Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)';

        // set url
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "https://www.ipko.com/epg/admin/programs.php?date=" . $_GET["date"]);

        //return the transfer as a string
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $agent);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);

        // $output contains the output string
        $output = curl_exec($ch);

        // close curl resource to free up system resources
        curl_close($ch);

        echo $output;

?>

Then, one has to modify the url_index part in the ipko.com.ini file of WeGrab as follows:
url_index{url()|http://127.0.0.1/ipko_epg.php?date=|urldate}

Here I have used a local webserver to serve the PHP script. If one uses a remote server, then update the http://127.0.0.1 url accordingly.

First of all php is a server side language, hence I am not sure if one can (and should) execute a php script from command prompt.

Secondly, you shouldn't get the php file contents, but you should see the contents of the $output variable.

I guess your webserver is not properly configured to handle php files. Try to open the php file from a browser at: http://127.0.0.1/tv2go_t2_channels.php

If you can't open the file like this than also webgrab can't open it.

If you still get php file as a result then try to replace nginx with apache webserver.

Blackbear199,

can you please have a look on the RTSH AL ini, as it doesn't work anymore. I get "no show found on index page" for any of the RTSH channels. I am using webgrab on ubuntu with mono.

Thank you.

Thank you. They are slow with the site updates, so sometimes the epg might not be up to date.
