Were there some API changes with the most recent point release ?

It doesn't seem to be working as it was up until a couple days ago ...

For me it works way better than before, since now they actually return proper error codes again... What's your problem?

I have not gotten any reports of broken stuff relating to the API. No one has been screaming at me on IRC or Twitter. So I think it's OK...

What specifically were you having an issue with and are you still having it? Will try and follow up tomorrow.

Actually, upon looking at it harder, I should have asked if the way the cache is being stored has been changed as Eve Mentat is now throwing up an "Error calling cache import tool. Code: -1" error again as it started to to in the last winter expansion, then got fixed (translated/updated) or some such.

That's not an EVE API error (although it might very well be caused by one. Just impossible for us to know from that error alone), your best bet is probably getting in touch with the EVE Mentat devs.

I'm a bit out of the API loop because I'm diligently trying to entrap Fox Four into the role, but I'm certain nothing new has gone out in quite some time because we've yet to integrate any recent changes to a deployable branch. Datastructures might have changed in the DB but the API would be erroring if they were not backwards compatible with the current API code.

But if we're doing something that's causing EVE Mentat to freak out every release, that would be nice to know. Cause we really don't want to be creating issues where we can avoid it. Blink

Oh yeah that's using the market data from your cache. We don't actually support that so all bets are off with backwards compatibility on expansion deployments.
