Good evening,

Just wondering if there is something I'm doing wrong? I'm making my first attempt at building a personal helper tool using Python and everything seems to work fine for a little while while testing code and then out of the blue, all I get are ServerErrors for what seems like forever (just feels that way because I'm testing code). This happens quite frequently and not at 3am or 4am time period I read in an earlier post about when maintenance typically occurs (I'm already sleeping by that point).

I'm hoping someone reads this message. The BBAPI Support forums appear to be devoid of human existence majority of the time.

Out of curiosity: My login credentials work just fine but since I'm running this tool via command prompt, do I need to be calling the logout.aspx page everytime the program quits? Could that be the reason why I get frequent ServerErrors?

Do you log in once and then test code for ages? If so it could be that your session is timing out.

No, when I run my program, I login each session but did not implement the logout function yet. Right now all my program simply does is allow me to login, writes the contents of the teaminfo page to a dictionary, outputs the contents of the dictionary to screen, and then quits. I'm going to try implementing the logout function at the end of my code to see if that will improve connection.

What I do know is that the site wasn't appearing to be down because Buzzer Manager was working perfectly fine.
