Hi,
Many thanks but returns error even if I modify retry and delay...
Please see log file

Well this looks like a dns issue. Make sure your linux environment is using dns google or opendns (8.8.8.8 and 208.67.222.222)

Runs fine here. I made 2 versions one full ( a bit slower but with all details ) and regular one

Just noticed

[Warning ] Incompatible version of /home/patrick/.wg++/siteini.pack/France/tv-programme.com.ini

You need version 5.1

Anyway 404 is a network issue, this could also be due to dotnet, i just tested on my linux and asked to upgrade first to dotnet 8 

Is this vps or local pc ?

Ok i am facing same issue, let me see why it works in windows and not in linux. Found out that date format is not translated to french basically https://tv-programme.com/tf1/lundi-2-juin-2025/   in linux is https://tv-programme.com/tf1/monday-2-june-2025/  so can't find the link and return 404

Will report the issue to the author as i am not sure is webgrabplus 5.x or ubuntu 24.04 or maybe dotnet

maybe dont do it the wrong way?

all you need is urldate.format {datestring|dddd-d-MMMM-yyyy}, u have dd(i assume it still worked).

and use |urldate| on the url_index line.

u also must have a magic windows pc because your global temp_1 doesnt convert the urldate correctly on winidows or linux.

calculate with date calculations will always result in the default culture info which is en-GB

besides you dont need all the replaces,ect your doing as there is no accented characters.

Edit:

I had checked the weekday names but not the month names.

Seems there are accented e and u in month names.

Easiest is to just modify the urlindex and replace these as accent characters are usually urlencoded.

If ur real paranoid substring the urldate part from the urlindex and replace the accented characters and then replace modified urldate in url index.

Or use the method u have but you would need to replace all 7 weekday names and all 12 month names with correct French values used by the site.

Only feb,Aug and Dec use accented characters.

All are far away from being used so pretty much have to wait and see what the site actually uses.

A good guess it what ur trying to do by replacing the accented characters.

another alternative..see screenshot.

Now it works in linux, download version dated 1 june 2025

@Blackbear199 no Idea why in linux culture info goes in language "en" it was working fine 4 years ago, i think there is a bug, not sure is linux or wg++ or most probably dotnet. Change of letters was applied anyway :

global_temp_1.modify{replace|é|e}
global_temp_1.modify{replace|û|u}

@Blackbear199, thanks the problem was in 'urldate_formatted'

once changed

 global_temp_1.modify {calculate(format=date,dddd-dd-MMMM-yyyy)|'urldate'}  into 

global_temp_1.modify {set|'urldate_formatted'} 
all works fine... forgot about new way 

I have downloaded the lastest files (.ini et .channels.xml) but I still have the error:

error downloading page: Response status code does not indicate success: 404 (Not Found).

I'm a little bit lost because the latest downloaded .ini file does not contain the following lines which are mentioned in the previous posts above:

scope.range {urlindex|end}

url_index {url(debug)|https://tv-programme.com/|channel|/|##date##/}

url_index.headers{customheader=Accept-Encoding=gzip,deflate,br}

*

global_temp_1.modify {set|'urldate_formatted'}

global_temp_1.modify {replace|é|e}

global_temp_1.modify {replace|û|u}

url_index.modify {replace|##date##|'global_temp_1'}

end_scope

*

urldate.format {datestring|dddd-d-MMMM-yyyy}

Please help me face to my missundunstood.

File is encrypted you don't see that. Please make sure you are using * @Revision 1  - [01/06/2025]

Here an extract of my tv-programme.com.ini file about the version:

* @Revision 1  - [01/06/2025] Mat8861   *fix elements

* @Revision 0  - [26/10/2021] Mat8861   *complete but ip ban after 6-7 chans, must use delay !!

I also attached the WebGrab++.log.txt file.

Can you please delete siteini and update or download siteini again? I tested and works fine both in windows and linux.

I have just deleted tv-programme.com.ini and downloaded again.

Same error is raised.

for info , same issue with full version

Please make sure your linux has google dns (8.8.8.8) and fr locales.

Fixed museum art  please download rev.1

Still have the issue with the locale defined to fr_FR.UTF-8 and DNS resolver defined to 8.8.8.8.

Using my own DNS resolver, I can ping and resolve tv-programme.com.

Note: I use the docker image lscr.io/linuxserver/webgrabplus:latest.
Is could be due to the use of docker image ?

I have the same config , docker on dsm 6.2 image linuxserver/webgrabplus:latest. This night i try with fr_FR.UTF-8 ... but it seems that not solve the problem

as expected, no better for TV-PROGRAMME.COM_FULL ... but it's ok for MUSEUM (thanks) 

please use the ini attached to check if date is correct, add in config:

  <update>f</update>

<channel update="i" site="test_fr" site_id="tf1" xmltv_id="dummy">dummy</channel>

Then check webgrab log.txt it should return:

[  Debug ] url_index created:
[  Debug ]    https://tv-programme.com/tf1/mercredi-11-juin-2025/

config updated, result tomorrow morning... my grab is done at night

Here the result using test_fr.ini.

Even if the locale of the Docker container is set to fr_FR.UTF-8, there is a english format for the date in the url: https://tv-programme.com/tf1/Wed-11-M06-2025/

As a result, still have the issue: [Warning ] error downloading page: Response status code does not indicate success: 404 (Not Found).

I specify , the TZ for my docker is Europe/Paris ... 

maybe with regex , it possible to transform the date

Ok guy , i can confirm , problem with the date format

this is an issue with locale i guess, you can check with locale -a (attached my output) or reconfigure them with dpkg-reconfigure locales

You can follow this article  https://poweradm.com/change-system-language-locale-linux/

Maybe an issue due to the Docker container configuration lscr.io/linuxserver/webgrabplus:latest.

From an attached shell of the Docker container, i installed the following packages:

apk add --no-cache --update musl musl-utils musl-locales tzdata

and configured the french locale into the following file:

/etc/profile.d/20locale.sh

Bellow the locale command result: 

# locale
LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_TIME=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_MONETARY=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8

Nethertheless, something is wrong because the date command still returns an english format: 

# date
Thu Jun 12 20:10:20 CEST 2025

The webgrabplus issue still be present.

Maybe it must be necessary to rebuilt the Docker image including the installation of locale packages and configuration into the Dockerfile...

you should be able to do : dpkg-reconfigure locales

and mark fr 

root@ubuntu:~# locale  -v
LANG=en_GB.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
root@ubuntu:~#
 

this is what i get with locale  -a, as i test different languages i set them all.

this is what i did typing :   dpkg-reconfigure locales

Think he is using alpine Linux

See..

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74516643/localization-not-working-on...

Either of u guys have any update? 

I am not a dotnet guru but from what I searched icu libraries are used for date conversion,ect(globalization)

Locales are for user keyboard,menu language,ect.
