[Dxspider-support] sh/qrz not returning anything?... and grids (still)

[Keith Maton]

Firstly, a big thumbs up to Dirk for the work with the mojo branch.  I’ve gone from a Pi 3B to a Pi Zero 2 and even with the slightly slower CPU and half the memory, the whole node just feels faster, snappier and quicker to respond.  Thanks so much :)

Another question, I’m sorry to say.  But now that I’ve got the cluster rebuilt, I’m giving it a little TLC and making sure everything works.  I’m down to just two minor issues now.

I’ve copied Internet.pm to /spider/local, made sure the ownership and permissions are the same as the other files in that directory and have edited it to enable qrz.com <http://qrz.com/>

I’ve put my callsign and my password in as follows.  Note, this isn’t my actual password but it’s in this format, random letters, numbers and symbols.

$qrz_uid = 'g6nhu’;

$qrz_pw = ‘hsJrKi6O3&h7P at RwDbWP(';


When I try a qrz lookup, I get a remarkably underwhelming response.

sh/qrz g6nhu
show/qrz Working...

Data provided by www.qrz.com

And that’s it.  Nothing else.  I can’t see any errors in the debug log but just nothing comes back.  I do have 2FA enabled on my qrz account but I’d have thought that the cluster would be using an API call to get the data rather than trying to log on as a user.

The other thing I’m referring to in the message subject is the grid thing.  As per the message I posted here on Saturday (message subject: 'Built a new spider to replace an old one - A couple of questions'), I’m seeing significantly fewer grids displayed to the right of the time than previously.  Is there some kind of master database I’ve forgotten to download or could it be something else please?

If I can get these last two niggles sorted out, I’ll be a very happy chap.

Thanks again for your help.
