Invalid data returned from schedules/md5 endpoint

Hi,

As of this morning an invalid result is being returned for both my lineups:

Code: Select all

Getting listings for KTVUDT (KTVU-DT) [Channel 2.1]
Error: Exception: System.IO.InvalidDataException: Unable to get response object for station id '19571' from: {
  "19571": []
} ---> System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast object of type 'Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JArray' to type 'Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject'

Code: Select all

Getting listings for KTVU [Channel 2]
Error: Exception: System.IO.InvalidDataException: Unable to get response object for station id '10760' from: {
  "10760": []
} ---> System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast object of type 'Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JArray' to type 'Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject'

I'm not sure if other channels are effected, since my app stops when it encounters this error. Can this please be fixed ASAP?

Thanks.

Are you still having an issue right now?

I was able to complete the update, thanks.

I did get a few warnings, such as those listed below.

The 502 errors are coming from the Amazon load balancer; others have been reporting similar issues and I think AWS is investigating.

Good to hear that you were able to pull down the schedule.

Thanks for the update, appreciate it.

Unfortunately, I saw this error again this afternoon. There were no issues when I updated earlier this morning.

This issue seems to have come back again. The failure rate has gone up pretty significantly in the past few days. I grab schedules twice a day, and I'm seeing a failure every other day or so.

Today it failed both the morning and afternoon updates. The most recent failure:
