LJArchive problem...

[alexpgp]

Every once in a while I fire up the LJArchive to back up my tappings.

This most recent time, the journal entries seemed to download with no problem, but the second pass—which downloads comments—goes on until it times out with the following error message:

ljArchive Error: System.Xml.XmlException: The 'img' start tag on line 104 does not match the end tag of 'A'. Line 105, position 67.

A look at my comment stream since the last time I ran LJArchive shows no images posted in comments since that last update. This leads me to believe that when LJArchive goes to fetch comments, what comes back through the pipe is not what the program expects. As a result, all of the data downloaded during the synchronization process is dumped.

Fortunately, LJArchive has a setting that will let me download posts without downloading comments, but the status quo is a bit annoying.

I'm betting LJ has changed the way it grants access to comments, but there are other, more urgent issues that demand my attention, so I think I'll fire off a help request and see what happens.

Cheers...

I was trying to see if the change coorelated with an LJ release, but the last one was on August 10. Which is not to say that they didn't do some other sort of tweak after that.
