If you do many searches google really blocks the queries. It seems like it is enough to wait a couple of hours to remove the ban.

That's what I would have thought from reading the help page, but the plugin search is redirected first time, everytime. I wasn't doing any searches before, and the ban (if that's the problem) isn't been removed in time. This started 12 hours ago; three days ago it worked fine.

Doing a search from IMPAwards, I noticed the Google site search results are now embedded in the IMPAwards page, rather than a separate Google page. Thinking the recent site redesign may have caused this problem, I made a Web search based on the current search URL...


--- Code: ---http://www.impawards.com/googlesearch.html?cx=partner-pub-6811780361519631%3A48v46vdqqnk&cof=FORID%3A9&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=%s%u
--- End code ---

I saw some promise in the fact a partner id is now used, where it wasn't before (i.e., maybe referrals from partners are not banned). Indeed, the web search works flawlessly, while the same plugin searches continue to fail. So this seemed like the solution, but then I tried the search URL the plugin is using as a web search...


--- Code: ---Plugin search:
http://www.google.com/search?q=allintitle:[Title]+Poster+site:www.impawards.com&filter=0

Web search:
http://www.google.com/search?q=allintitle:+site:www.impawards.com+Poster+%s%u
--- End code ---

It works flawlessly too. It's necessarily a little different than the plugin search, but I doubt that makes any difference.

Since deleting Google cookies makes no difference, I tried the plugin with Anonymizer—still no change. The problem is the same in both 0.9.8 and 0.9.9. And with that, I'm stumped. I can't imagine how Google is banning queries specifically from PVD, without using cookies and without my IP address. :(

I figured the only solution to my aggrevating problem is reinstalling the system and so i did
I managed to d/l one poster from IMP till I saw this:
HTTP1.1 503 service unavailable

damn it

At least now it's evident we have the same problem. :-\

And this seems to be true. As you can see from my last post, I could not work around the ban. When I tried the plugin now (for the first time since my last post), it worked fine. Apparently, the ban had been lifted.

So I ran it on a batch of movies, thinking that is the sort of thing Google is sensitive to. Sure enough, it found two posters, then returned the error on the third. But my log (attached) shows some odd behaviour by the plugin. After the first two movies, it executed the GET for the third 50 times in 44 seconds! No wonder Google banned me. :o

What do you think, nostra?

The problem is in the main application. It searches using original title first and takes title if nothing found by original title. Unfortunately if nothing found using title PVD does not stop, but searches again because of a mistake in the code.

I am sorry for this.
The problem will be fixed as soon as possible.
