I'm announcing the release of EWA v2.0. This release adds (basic) charting to EWA.
EWA was first released to the public in March 2008 (although not in this forum) and has continously been updated and enhanced since then. Version 2.0 requires additional components to be installed, therefore a separate/new setup has been created. An update installer for version 1 users is available, helping them to update their installation of EWA to version 2 while preserving their existing data.
EWA is a tool designed to help traders manage the following aspects of their business: - Wallet transactions - Wallet journal - Market orders - Assets
Current program version: 2.0.0 Current database version: 13 (Dominion 1.1.1)
Links: EWA website EWA download Manual Version history
Note: This is the only legit distribution site for EWA.
EWA is provided free of charge for the benefit of the EVE community.

OK, the above reported problems only plagued new users and/or fresh installs of EWA. It occurred with a blank database where no EWA account was created yet.
The problem has been fixed. If you've experienced this bug, you don't need to do a new install. Just download the new EXE from EWA's website and drop it into EWA's program folder on your machine.
Note to self: always test new releases with an empty database, too. |

Edited by: Hel O''Ween on 05/02/2010 11:42:35 I'm terribly sorry, folks.
Try downloading the EXE again, make sure it shows version 2.0.1 (so that your browser's cache doesn't fool you).
I can't reproduce the problem here, but added nontheless some error trapping where I think the error might occur.
I do know the source of the problem: the account/character selection now tries to remember what account/char you have selected. But as I said, not sure where in there the error happens, if it still there. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

the line at the bottom reads: processed personal wallet transaction #xxx for wallet 1000
this repeats itself over and over. counting from 1 to 1000 about 50 times already.
i have couple thousand transactions per day but i thought the api provides only the last 1000?
I have the suspicion that you're machine has a caching problem. That would explain that the download of the first bugfix EXE didn't work as intended and it would also explain that endless loop. Are you using a proxy or something the like? -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Yeah, this behaviour is "by design" (as an (in)famous software company phrased it). But there's an easy way out: right click on the grid -> select "Collapse all" -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

However, I don't have a license for the program (library maybe?) you were talking about so I don't know if I will actually be able to work with it.
If I remember correctly, the two components (VSFlexGrid and Olectra chart) will just throw a nag screen at you, without a license. So, in theory, you should be able to work with it. (Although it's annoying, ofc)

Originally by: arjun1 is there a limit to the number of transactions ewa can handle? looks like ill have 200k+ transactions this month alone.
No, there is no limit other than what (and how fast) your machine can handle. Depending on the amount of data, it may of course take some time for things to be calculated/displayed/filtered.
Quote:
is there a way to remove transactions from the database permanently? when i delete, they return with the next dataretrieval. is there a way to group items like i want like all ship equipment in one group?
You already pointed out the issue yourself: as long as the records are still part of what you get from the API, a deletion is only temporarily. EWA handles duplicates fine, but doesn't keep track of deleted records. Wait until the API has moved "beyond" those records before deleting them. This will delete them permamently then. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Getting the following error when it tries to access my API "error: -2147221303, EVE API Error: 201 Character does not belong to account."
From what I can tell it can't find my account through the API. When I go to the Character screen I get no options to choose from, when I try to load characters from that screen it throws the above error.
Yeah, EWA sometimes goes "rogue" when fiddling with accounts/chars in the options screen. The reason for this is that I try to update the main account/char selection screen while your switching options. If you're using multiple accounts and have selected a different account than the current default one, the chars on the chars tab still reflect the old account. Trying to refresh the main screen with the newly selected account than results in this message. Just ignore it. It basically says: Hel is too stupid to properly do account switching. 
If you switched the account in the option screen to download new char data, make sure you set that account as "default" (as you did) and save it. Then switch to the char selection and download the chars for that account.
As for the MDAC: yes, Vista and Win 7 sould come with the required version. Windows 2000 and XP came with an earlier version. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

"Wallet exhausted, retry after xxxxxxx" and "market orders already downloaded, retry after xxxxxx"
The date is more than 24 hours from now, which surprises me.
These messages are taken directly from the API, without modifying them. You're sure it was 24h hours? That's the caching time for assets, not journal or transactions. Also, if you fetched data from the API once for a character with application A, application B querying the same API data from the same IP address gets the "exhausted" message, too. That's how CCP implemented their API caching. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Originally by: Tehg Rhind Getting the "wallet exhausted" message again, also been getting a "character doesn't belong to account" message. The exhausted message gives a delay of 7 hours. Now that I am looking at it though is this a timezone issue? The time I recieve for the error is local time, and the time I recieve for the API caching time is CCP time, is that correct? That could be what's messing me up. New to the world of API calls.
In general: <x> exhausted is nothing to worry about. It's a standard API message. I just record it for sake of documentation. Exception: two different programs trying to query the same API data.
As for the TZ "issue". The message shown in the status bar, is directly copy 1:1 from the API and therefore is of course EVE time. However, EWA is fully aware of time zones. When downloading an API file, it takes the cache date/time from it, looks up your local settings, adjusts the date/time and stores that time. Just have a look at Extras -> Cached XML files. The column "Cached until" reflects your local time. Export that XML file, open it in a browser and look for the cachedUntil field in there. Unless you live in EVE's time zone, they will differ.
Quote:
1) Total Revenue/Expenses vs Time graph. Nothing fancy, just charting those 2 things.
More charting is planned. I basically pushed out version 2, to distribute the charting component on which I will build further charting.
Quote:
2) The way I view an individual items transaction data could use some other more spreadsheety options. From what I can tell they are automatically put into subgroups based on the purchaser, but if I want to get a feel of volume as a function of date I can't sort it to see that. Not sure how easy that would be to implement. To be honest an option to completely remove the subgrouping and allow people to do tiered sorting (by x then y) would be fantastic.
Sorting was long a problem, due to the grid's "inner working", but just last week, I figured out a way to allow sorting. Not exactly like you suggested, but it's a start.
Oh, and I don't perceive it as "knocking". Like I've mentioned a couple of times elsewhere: you'd be surprised how many of EWA's features are due to user requests/suggestions. There's a lot of stuff in there I don't even use myself.  -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

No, you can't. And if you could, it wouldn't help you with your issue, because collapsed/expand is only a "virtual" mode. The data (and the filling of it), is there nonetheless.

Edited by: Hel O''Ween on 19/02/2010 11:50:25 Version 2.0.2 has been released.
This version adds some nice enhancements.
Assets, market orders, wallet journal and transactions may now be sorted in various ways.
A new (seperate) tool is available: Auto data downloader (EWAAutoData). This is an API data grabber, which you may run in the background. It downloads new API data for all your EWA characters. This is a zero installation/configuration tool. Just download the EXE to your EWA installation folder and run it. It shares it's configuration with EWA. EWA itself doesn't need to run, for this tool to work properly.

I mainly use it for asset valuation, but I've run into an odd problem. Asset imports only work about 1/4 of the time, mostly before I've run EVE since booting the machine. Most of the time I'll hit "Import Assets" and it'll just sit there.
Hmm, not enough information to really tell what's going on.
- Have you checked Extras -> Application log if there are some errors in there related to assets? If you're unsure, export the suspect entries to a text file and send me an email.
- Have you checked Extras -> Cached XML files if there's an asset entry?
- If so, are assets in there (lot's of stuff you can't make sense of) of if it says something like "Expired, Try again at ..."?
An explanation for the last two questions (Hint, it's also explained in the manual): the asset API can only be fetched once every 24 hours. By *one* application (from the same IP address for the same account).
Quote:
I'm running Windows 7 64bit as an admin.
AFAIK, it shouldn't be necessary to run EWA as an admin. XP comp. mode eventually. But other than the installation itself, EWA should not required admin rights, as it doesn't write to any protected folder but keeps everything to "Documents and settings" (W2K/XP) or "User" (Vista/Win7)
As an alternative: if you're just looking for asset management, have also a look at jEveAssets by Golden Gnu. It's specialized on assets and I frankly admit that it does a better job in managing assets than EWA does. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

I don't believe this information is available within the program. You can look at particular items and see total sales and total purchases, but it does not take into account unsold items, so it is only useful if you have sold out of them and have not bought any more.
I would love to know if i'm wrong, or if there is a program that actually has a go at calculating this. The problem with it is that you can only work it out if you have a cost value for each item, and the average cost value for each item changes every time you buy another one.
Ah, now I understand (I think). You (OP) want to know the profit of items you bought and then sold, disregarding those that you bought but are still listed as a sell order/sit in your hangar.
No, EWA doesn't do that. I know that EMMA tries to estimate this. But there's no real way to tell, as the API doesn't track items/match purchases to sales.
Say, you bought 100x Item A for 100,000 ISK and 50x Item A for 105,000 ISK. You than sell 50x Item A for 150,000 ISK. Were those 50 sales from the batch of 100 you bought at 100,000 or from that 50 batch at 105,000 ISK? Or 34 from the 105,000 ISK pile and 16 from the 100,000 ISK stock. Or .... <lots of combinations>.
I *think* EMMA does this on a FIFO basis. But it's only a guess. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Short answer: somewhat ...
Long answer: you could set it up to run from a portable device, given you register the necessary components the first time you run it on a new PC. But as of now, EWA will nonetheless expect the INI to be in All users\AppData and will alway write some text logs to there.
The easiest way to make EWA "portable" is to install it on each machine, than copy the database to the portable device and edit the INI to reflect its location. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

I'm afraid I need to disappoint you, guys.
Before answering in detail, let me try to explain EWA's philosophy:
- EWA is a trading tool. I leave character management (and evaluation) to EVEMon and the like. I leave production management to EveHQ and the like. I leave POS management to MyPOS and the like. EWA is no corp management tool. I leave that to <don't know an app>. Besides that: I have no personal experience in the above realms.
- No manual input! EWA was built with the goal in mind, that no user should ever manually add data (except your API key(s)), because it's a nightmare to manage.
Now on to your suggestions.
Quote:
- the group filter could be changed so that the user is able to filter by blueprints in general, ore, minerals ammo etc. in general.
These groups are CCP's groups (invGroups) taken from the data dump. I might add market groups (which are a different beast than those groups) as a filter sometime.
Quote:
- It is correct of you including assets that have a value of ISK 0.00. By doing so you should be honest to all items. In my assets list I am misising the listing of them.
I'm still struggling with assets. The problem is the location of assets. Items in POS' and in space might still be missing.
Quote:
- I noticed the captions of the colums are clickable but without any effect. Is it planned when the user clicks on one caption that assets are sorted by that column?
They do (most of them), since the last release (2.0.2). RTFM! http://eve.basicaware.de/EVEWalletAware/version.html. It's also in the manual.
Quote:
Excel stuff
The Excel stuff is a option of the grid, nothing I coded. Therefore I can't influence anything there. Sorry, mate.
@William: I'm not going to turn EWA into a POS/corp management tool. Have you had a look at EveHQ? You/someone might be able to write a plugin for EveHQ. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

In my case I just use EWA to grab the database files and link them to my own database. This is only for a single character. Would this be affecting me?
No, you're not affected then. The bug only appeared in the Auto downloader. If you never used it, all's fine.
Long story short: The Auto downloader didn't switch accounts/chars properly, when iterating through the database. Therefore it sometimes marked entries with a characterID of 0 and therefore unassociated to any present account/character (=didn't show up anywhere in EWA although present in the DB).
Originally by: Tehg Rhind
Also, if I do update will it change/maintain the way the historical data in the EWA database?
EWA always maintained historical data with any of its updates since its invention. Luckily I had this in mind ever since the first version and took care for that right from the beginning.
If you're going to upgrade from v1 to v2, make sure your'e using the updater on the download page, not the full v2 install and not the EXE only. The updater adds the necessary new components and patches the database accordingly. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

@Ben: Try Extras -> Database maintenance -> Compact database. If that doesn't help, please send me an email to [email protected]. I might need some logs to find out where the problem is.
@arjarj: It doesn't actually update that often. It just checks if an update is necessary. In an ideal world, it would know when to update what, but to get an updater out fast, I took this lazy approach. But reducing the number of checks is on my list.

under wallet/quick briefing the graph of the sales is 2 days behind the graph of the purchases. so i see 2 days with only the purchases graph.
We have two issues here. Not sure which one applies to you:
The currently released version has a bug where the graph could actually "march backwards". Hard to describe for me, if it happened to you, you'll know what I mean. I've fixed that already internally, but haven't published a new version, as I'm in the middle of adding other things (teaser: a bit more graphing in the Quick briefing), which I would like to include in the next update.
You might also experience a behaviour that's by design. The graph shows the last <x> days. If you haven't got any buys within the last two days, well, no graph for this. Whereas the sales will be plotted for those two days.

I'm afraid I only can provide an explanation, not a real solution. The logs show ("invalid beforeRefID provided") that you're hit by a bug CCP introduced in wallet journal API with Dominion. While they fixed this one for personal wallet journals, corporation API still is bugged.
See this thread over in the Tech Lab forum, where this is discussed. Quote from there:

Version 2.0.6 has been released, along with a database update (15).
This version adds a new feature I called "Virtual Character" (VC) to EWA. You combine two or more of your existing (real) charaters into a virtual character. This VC will then act as an "on-the-fly-total" of the combined chars.
In order for this to work, you need to apply both the appliaction and the database update.
Virtual characters can be created/edited via menu Extras -> Virtual character.
As always, see the version history for the changes in this version. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

This an error reported by the EVE API server. So, EWA is able to connect to the server (=no technical connection problems there), but the API server can't serve the characters for your account, for reasons only CCP knows.
Is your account by any chance a pretty new account? I seem to remember that you can't immediately use the API with a new character.
Also, make sure you're creating an (EWA) account first, entering your Full API key for that account, save it and mark the account you want to retrieve the characters for as the default account. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Did you download your wallet data with another application (from the same location/IP address)? If so, you've got bitten by CCP's API caching.
If not, have a look at Extras -> Application log, if there's an error. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Either use an EVE API proxy (hop over to the Tech Lab forum, there you'll find those advertised) or use one application for one task.
if you're able to change your external IP address, the caching is per account and IP address.
Other than that, there's no way around CCP's caching. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

EveHQ works just fine on the same system.
Hmm, strange. Are you connecting through a proxy? If so, you need to configure EWA for using a proxy (menu Extras -> Options, tab "Proxy server").
If not, is perhaps your firewall or virus scanner (or something like that) blocking EWA from accessing CCP's API server? -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Originally by: Flitterby I'm not trying to use a proxy, but there may be one here at work. However, EveHQ works on the default settings without having to enter any proxy information.
I haven't looked at EveHQ in a long time. Not sure if it does use calls to the EVE API ... but I guess it has, at least for getting character information.

If you don't have any more suggestions, I'll try the software from my home computer this evening.
Well, we could make sure that your config hasn't become corrupted. Go to ? -> Show locations. There's an entry "Configuration file used" (points to EWA's INI file). Open that file in a text editor. Search for "EVEApiBaseURL=", located in the section [EVEApi]. The value for "EVEApiBaseURL" should be http://api.eve-online.com.
I can only guess that perhaps EveHQ automagically uses IE's proxy settings and therefore does work, whereas EWA needs to be configured for using a proxy. I mean, it's pretty easy: open your browser and check if it's configured to use a proxy. If so, configure EWA to use the same. The queries EWA makes are standard HTTP calls on port 80 using MS' MSXML library, nothing fancy there. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

No. They exactly behave like a real char. A VC either refers to the (sum of) the personal wallets of all related chars or the (sum of) corp wallets of all related chars. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Edited by: Hel O''Ween on 24/04/2010 09:05:06 @Tehg:
Let me start with saying thank you very much for your kind words. Although my main philosophy with EWA is "no user input", letting a user create "input/output groups" (in lack of a better name) wouldn't interfere with the API data. I can see where you're coming from, as a producer and I can also see the added value of such a user grouping for other business purposes, if that grouping would be flexible enough. I won't promise to add something like this at this point. But I can promise you that I will at least have a look.
@Companion:
My first impression is: this sounds like it could easily be done. But the devil is in the details (does this make sense in English? It's a German proverb ...), so let me have a look at it first. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Edited by: Hel O''Ween on 26/04/2010 21:52:28 There are two factors which play a role here:
1) API cache. Each API type (wallet transactions, market orders etc.) has it's own caching timer. You query it. CCP sets a timer. You won't get new data from the API server until that cache has expired. The expiration time is delivered along with the data and EWA recognizes those and won't query for new data until then. Under Extras -> Cached XML files you'll see a column "Cached until". That's how long you can't make a call to that API type for that account.
2) Delay between TQ and API server. I've never measured myself nor did I read how long it takes before data is "moved" from TQ to the API server. I know there is a delay but don't know how long it is and if it's identical for all API calls. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Edited by: Hel O''Ween on 27/05/2010 00:01:58 Confirmed.
Not sure what the cause is yet, as I'm not at my development machine now. The API does return a character sheet (you can verify that by looking at Extras -> Cached XML files. Search for an entry called "Other/Unknown").
Perhaps CCP changed the layout of the XML.
Will look into it tomorrow.
[Added] I found an old char XML. They look identical. So I obviously managed to introduce a bug there somehow.  -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

As this might affect other users, I'll post the cause/solution here, too. The problem was caused by huge number entered in the Options, tab "Wallet/Assets" under "Show transactions/journals for last number of days".
A bad design decision (small text box which only showed four of the actual eight figures in there) on my part made that one a bit difficult to spot for both the user and me. Add to this that I haven't done any sanity check on the amount of days put in there = Mayhem! 
I'll add a fix for this in the next release. Until then, just make sure you put a sane number of days in there. Roughly 240k years was a bit overkill.  -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

I've just uploaded a new database update (database version 17).
There have been changes between Tyrannis 1.0 and Tyrannis 1.0.1 in CCP's database dump that I wasn't aware of. From the description I assumed that the 1.0.1 changes wouldn't affect EWA. Obviously I was wrong.
I found this out, because a user reported the problem of PI products not showing up in his transactions.

This place is perfect for asking.
Let me quote from the version history, version 2.0.0
Quote:
Enhancement
- Balance sheet (transactions). If activated in EWA's settings, broker fees and sales tax will now be taken into account in this window, too. The columns Buy and Sell are left untouched and will still show the plain (sum of the) selected item's/item group's price, but the Total column is calculated by taking broker fees and sales taxes into account.
Keep in mind that the fees are estimated. EWA calculates with the "worst case" fees resulting from your skills only and currently doesn't take your standing towards the NPC corp into account. So, your real fees can only be less than what EWA estimates. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Bah, me stupid!
A new version (2.0.13) has been uploaded, which fixes that bug. Users of the auto downloader should also update it, as it shares the same bug.
For those of you seeing negative values, please do the following to correct your downloaded data:
- Open Extras -> Database maintenance -> Direct database query (I knew this would come in useful at soem time) - Paste the following line in the query window:
UPDATE banav_tWalletTransactions SET price = ABS(price)
- Click "Execute query" - You're done. (There's no indicator, it just executes in the background) - Check your Quick briefing to see if it worked.

Unfortunately not. That's the way the API's designed. You can't retrieve data past a certain point (max 1000 entries or 1 week worth of data).
This is also the reason, why EWA (and other apps of that type) try to preserve your existing data from version to version, because once you lost your old data, there's no way to collect it from the EVE API again. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Currently not, as I'm not aware of any reliable data source for items sold via contracts. This is mainly obviously due to the missing contracts API.
However, EWA allows you to set the prices for those items manually: right-click the item in question -> Set item price. of course, this is a PITA, if you have plenty of faction items. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Edited by: Hel O''Ween on 16/09/2010 12:34:52 You should have noticed then that two applications can't query the same API. The second app will always receive "xxxx exhausted", because of CCP's caching. In order for this to work, you need to either wait until the caching timer has expired before trying to pull data with the second app or use an API proxy.
Here's what I wrote in the linked posting:
Quote:
Also, if you fetched data from the API once for a character with application A, application B querying the same API data from the same IP address gets the "exhausted" message, too. That's how CCP implemented their API caching.

1 - on the balance sheet by item report, include 4 other columns: Avg buy price, avg sale price, margin & margin %. I believe all of these can be found on the items details for each individual item. Putting them next to the totals though would be very helpful. A lot of products are in the 'red' just b/c they haven't sold.
This sounds doable ...
Quote:
2 - Allow customization of the tables in terms of ordering the columns, column sizes, removing columns, sorting columns. I know you can currently resize and sort - but the settings don't save and i have to do it each time. It'd be very helpful to have it start up on the report format i like to use.
... while this sounds - if not completely undoable - at least like a major PITA. 
OK, column sizes, removing & columns sorting (and persisting those states) might work in theory. But that would require some heavy coding.
Ordering columns wouldn't work on many grids, as it would break the grid's logic. The outcome would be funny, as calculating totals, counts, averages is done by the grid, based on changes in the cells contents from left to right. So, if you move "Location" to the first column, the total would be calculated on the column Price, not Total.
Anyhow - let's see if I experience one of those rare "genius moments" and figure out how to implement a bit of the above. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Speaking of .net, would you mind putting up the current source for the autodownloader? I'm interested in porting it to .net.
The downloader is part of the source code package. It's located in the zTOOLS\EWAAutoData folder. Everything in there is unique to the downloader (=not part of EWA), whereas the other sources of the downloader are taken from EWA's parent folder. In those, you'll find a couple of conditional compilation statements ...
#If APP_TYPE = ...
... which either disable some visual feedback from EWA for the downloader or make the downloader more responsive while downloading data.

Thankfully this time around CCP announced data type changes in the API ahead of its implementation. (For those interested, here's the dev blog).
I just uploaded a new version of EWA, the database and the auto downloader. Although the above mentioned API change will be implemented with the release of Tyrannis 1.2, you can already apply the updates to EWA right now.
This update solely adds Tyrannis 1.2 compatibility to EWA and its DB. No new features this time, as I'm terribly busy in RL at the moment.
If you're using the auto downloader along with EWA, you must update both apps. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

A couple of questions:
Is your version up to date (incl. the database)?
Any abnormal entries in the log (Extras -> Application log)? Try "Log -> Empty log" right before you try to download your corp transactions. Then check the log.
Also, check Extras -> Cached XML files. There should be six entries "Wallet transaction (corporation)". Click on them. Is there actually data in there?
One last point: You're using the same char to retrieve corp data on that second machine that does work? If not, has the char the necessary rights to retrieve API data? -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Those two errors shouldn't occur. Did you by any chance change the corp with that character? That would explain that personal wallet transactions work just fine, but corporate not. If you did so, try retrieving the characters for that EWA account again. I suggest also to mark one EWA account as your default account, if you haven't already done so.

Error: -2147221403, EVE API Error: 101, Wallet exhausted: retry after 2010-10-26 17:55:25. (5 of this type)
This is an informational entry. EWA queried all data available for that wallet division.
Quote:
regarding the cached xml files now : there are six entries for corp wallet transactions : some with datas, some without (the empty ones are the inactive corp wallets).
Again, that's the expected behavior. Data is downloaded (and stored) by EWA, no data is lost. There only seems to be a problem with displaying the data.

Originally by: Companion Qube How do I go about emptying the log with a direct database query?
DELETE * FROM tApplicationLog
You can also switch to text file logging instead writing the log to the DB. To do so, open EVEWalletAware.ini and enter the following line beneath the [General] section:
LogType=1
Deleting that line or changing the value to 0 will resume database logging again. Logging to a text file has the advantage that EWA autopurges log files older than 14 days. It has two disadvantages, though: a) can't view them from within EWA and b) logging is a bit slower. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

There seem to be two problems here. One I can solve (an oversight on my part when updating the app to be Tyrannis 1.2 ready). The other problem seems to be a problem with the API itself (on your side).
Originally by: Dmitri Kreig Hello! Cached XML file for Asset list query contains only several hundreds of rows, and if i'm guessing correctly, 1 row = 1 item (stack), in wich case there should be several thousands of them.
You're right. 1 row should translate to 1 item (stack). If the XML itself is intact (=has a closing </eveapi> tag), that's all what the API returned. EWA downloads a XML file from the API, stores it first and then proceeds to process it. EWA never manipulates the XML file itself in any way. Please note though, that EWA's preview window of the cached XML files might shorten the file. To really see if the XML is complete and intact, export the cached asset API to a XML file and open it in a browser.
Quote:
App log entry for updating assets from API says: "Application Error: cEVEAssets:ParseXML->6, EVEWalletAware, Overflow". My OS is XP.
This is an oversight on my part. When updating EWA to by Tyrannis 1.2 ready, I missed to update one method, which causes the above error. This will be fixed in the next version. Not sure when I'll be able to release it, as I've just moved to a new flat and still have lots of stuff to do.
EWAAutoData suffers from this bug, too.
If you can't live without proper assets, try jEveAssets for asset management. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Sorry, Ulf, I don't get it. Could you please try rephrase your question "for dummies"?
I'm unsure if you meant to say that EWA did work for you, but not doesn't work anymore or if you want to get it working for you in the first place.
IF the first is the case, have you updated EWA and the database to the current version (menu "? -> Check for updates")? You need to do so in order for EWA to work with Tyrannis 1.2. Also there's a bug in the asset management (see the messages above yours), which I need to release a fix for. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

I've uninstalled the EWA and then tried to reinstall it but am getting an error message when trying to install it, the error message is as follows:error accessing database at C:\ProgramData\EVEWalletAware\Data\.
Any help would be appreciated as im feeling a little lost without my stats lol.
P.S. Im running windows 7 64 bit.
Good that you mentioned it. Windows 7 (and I guess Vista as well, but I skipped it) does some strange things with folders (junctions). I'm still not too familiar with Windows 7, so I'm not 100% sure if the following is the right solution:
- Locate EWA's config file EVEWalletAware.ini. It should be located under "C:\USERS\ALL USERS\EVEWALLETAWARE\evewalletaware.ini". Please note that you might find 3 copies of the file, of which two or "pointers" to this location. Make sure you find the right one.
Open the file with a text editor. Locate a section called [Database]. Beneath that there should be two lines: 1) Connection=<stuff> 2) DatabasePath=<stuff>
Those lines should look like this (I intentionally word-wrapped the first line here to not break the forum's layout, make sure that you have it in one line):
[Database] Connection=Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\ ALL USERS\APPLICATION DATA\EVEWALLETAWARE\DATA\evewalletaware.mdb;User Id=admin;Password=; DatabasePath=C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\ALL USERS\APPLICATION DATA\EVEWALLETAWARE\DATA\
I'm not sure why Windows 7 causes this havoc, as I follow Window's guidelines as to how to retrieve system folders (storage path for application data).
Perhaps more versatile Windows 7 users can point out an easier/better way of making EWA behave right. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Originally by: MailDeadDrop Perhaps you can use something like %AppData% and then run the value through something like wshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings() ?
As I wrote, I'm using an official API (SHGetFolderPath() with CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA). Initially the path is written to the INI by the installer, which predates Vista. So, perhaps the installer has problems of figuring out the right path and/or updating the INI with the proper value.
EWA itself seems to run fine, once the path is correct in the INI.

So I have a look, and the culprit is the WalletAware LOG file, which has grown to over 79GB!!! And the DB file is over 805MB...holy cow! And I've only been playing for 6 months and only running the app for a couple of weeks, one character, one account.
So...firstly, how do I go about fixing this? Secondly, a feature suggestion: Add the ability to schedule regular DB maintenance?
First, could you please name the log file, because EWA doesn't write *one* (text) log file, but a separate log file each time you start EWA. EWA uses text logging until it was able to initialize the DB, then starts logging to the DB instead (at least if you haven't edited the INI and forced EWA to sole text file logging). It also auto-purges log files older than 14 days.
Second, see this post and page back (and my following answer) on how to empty EWA's logging table. Try compacting afterwards.
Scheduling is something I'll think about.
Quote:
Also...Access sucks as a DB engine compared to SQL, I suggest revisiting the back end and consider SQL Express as a possibility. While I agree that lots of people know how to poke around in an Access DB, I challenge that most of those also know how to poke around in an SQL db too.
I don't think I will start forcing people into installing SQL Server. Although EWA would of course benefit from SQL Server, I consider this to be too intrusive as an requirement to run some gaming utility.

Well, look at the time stamp you posted your message and at the time provided by the EVE API server. You only can query your assets once every 24 hours.
This is how the assets API (and EWA) has always worked.
Also, keep in mind that the API caching is per API call type (assets, wallet journals etc.) and per IP address & account. In other words, using two different applications for the same data (assets, i.e.), leaves the second application without data, unless you're using an (API) proxy server. EWA can be configured to work with proxy servers. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

I'm glad you got that sorted out. Yes, compacting the DB requires both EWAAutoData to beclosed. Didn't think about that.

So now I just need to know what to do about this massive EWAAD log.
Just as EWA auto-purges old (older than 14 days)text logs, EWAAutoData purges its, too ... on application startup. If you keep that beast running 24/7, well no cleanup takes place. And the massive size of the logs is something which stems from the assets bug, I think, causing a lenghty error entry for each item.
Once that one is (finally) fixed, the log's size should shrink again.
I think I also add some "warch for date change, if so start new log and do cleanup" for those fanatics like you, who run EWAAutoData 24/7.

Damn it, I thought that I fixed this one finally. My problem is, I haven't acquired any new items lately, therefore my item IDs are still within the old range. So, for me EWA throws no errors. I'll look at it again.
And the different numbers are the item IDs, so thanks a lot for posting the log entries, this is helpful. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

EWA version 2.0.16 and EWAAutoData version 1.0.11 have been released. This hopefully finally fixes the assets problem.
I've also implemented a log file rollover for EWAAutoData. If it detects a date change (you leave it running while midnight passes), it closes the current text log file, starts logging to a new file and does a clean up (delete logs older than 14 days), just at it does at application start up.

Just a quick note to let you know that if you're missing the Noctis (+BPO) in EWA, it's due to the fact that CCP hasn't published the Incursion database dump yet.
If you bought or sold Noctis' (and/or its BPO) already - don't worry, your transactions are not lost, they just don't show up in EWA at the moment. As soon as the DB is updated, all your Noctis related transactions will appear in EWA. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

I've added one small addition to EWA's Quick briefing: the revenue chart may now optionally show a graph for profit/loss, too.

[Added] In case you haven't noticed yet: Ix Forres announced that EVE Metrics will close its doors in January at latest. As of now, it seems that Ix is not willing to hand the project over to someone else.

EWA version 2.0.18 and EWAAutoData version 1.0.13 have been released due to the fact that EVE Metrics has officially shut down (see this thread)
Fortunately, someone else tries to pick up where EM left. This service is called EVE Marketdata.com (http://www.eve-marketdata.com).
It tries to mimik EM's API, therefore this release of EWA lets you edit EWA's INI to use a different URL for EM's API (I didn't bother to remove the "EVE Metrics" references yet).
To point EWA to a different URL, add the following line to EWA's INI beneath the [EVEApi] section:
[EVEApi] EMBaseURL=http://eve-marketdata.com
Please note though, that as of now the API of EVE Marketdata doesn't work porperly yet.

A couple of answers (not necessarily solutions):
Originally by: Vaerah Vahrokha
1) Speed: updating a client of mine API data takes 2 hours. With old EveTrader it takes 30 minutes, with Income Analyzer it takes 2-3 minutes (all fetch both wallet and journal). They are not native executables but .net.
Did you notice where it takes the longest? EWA fetches journal, trasnactions, market orders, assets. For me market orders takes by far the longest, due to the fact that the API serves you all market orders in one XML, without the paging they implemented for transactions or assets.
I admit, that the way EWA process those might add to the time - EWA always processes the whole XML (all rows).
Quote:
2) Selecting all of the available options to clear a database and also manually deleting every character still leave a 272MB database after compaction.
The "base" DB is currently ca. 140 MB in size, so - yes 272 MB seems to much. Have you also cleared the application log? That can grow quite enormous ...
Quote:
3) Once the database has been cleared and populated with new characters, the autoupdater won't work, it says error accessing characters of characters not found.
The updater fetches the accounts/chars on startup. If you left him running will doing the cleanup/adding new chars, that might be the point where it got confused. It still tries to work with the old DB IDs it fetched when starting, but the chars/accounts now don't match those IDs anymore.
I'll look into the speed thing and se if I can optimize something there. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Originally by: teppo3345345 Of course the new account API will be inserted, but is there something that should be done before such change?
That depends upon your desire to keep the old data still visible. If so, you need to do an export (File -> Export/import EWA data) of that char's data prior to updating the API key/user ID for that char. After you set up the char with you new API data, import it back to this char.
If you don't care about your old data, just go ahead and change its API key/user ID. You'll still keep personal data that way, as EWA identifies personal data by characterID (which should't change, I assume). But corp data is identified by userID (=account). -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Originally by: Vaerah Vahrokha One neat feature of JEveAssets and EveTrader is how easy is to segregate data on a per-"customer basis".
IE if I want to process data for a guy with 3 accounts I have managed (or manual in EvETrader) easy ways to keep that data in one file and totally separated to anyone else.
This seems to be peregrine but it's not, expecially because of the AutoUpdater.
It can be done and it's not terribly complicated, even with the AutoUpdater: Both apps always work on the EVEWalletAware.mdb, which holds both the API keys/chars and data for those.
In theory you could just rename EVEWalletAware.mdb to MyCustomerA.mdb and back when working on customer A, rename EVEWalletAware.mdb to MyCustomerB.mdb when working on customer B and so forth. Granted, if you're working on multiple customers at the same time, this doesn't help much except keeping the data in separate databases.
But wait, there's more ...

Second, I did not find a way to selectively enable accounts to be updated by the autoupdater.
... and this, Ma'am, will be possible with the next release of the AutoUpdater. OK, so it's not accounts but characters. Plus you get the option to select which data to download for a char (personal, corporation or both). 
I already had that i mind for quite some time and - believe me or not - finished it just a couple of minutes ago. I'll do a bit of testing and release it in the next couple of days along with the API wallet journal update for both EWA and the AutoUpdater. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Ahhh, I figured it out. If there are any deleted characters still in EWA's database it'll cause the auto-downloader to choke and stop pulling records when it hits their entry. The second character polled was a deleted alt. Seems to be working fine now.
Good catch, CQ. That one also cause the problem I mentioned.
Quote:
One more question - have you thought about putting in a setting to control how often the downloader polls the api? I can see how constant updates would be good for some people but I'm really only running it to catch the day's transactions - I don't need to poll 14 characters every 5 minutes.
There has always been a setting for this, just not via an Option window, as EWA's initial incarnation was meant as a "zero-config" tool.
As always, you'll find the "goodies" in EWA's INI file:
[EWAAutoData] QueryInterval=60 QueryPause=30
QueryPause is what you're looking for. This is the value in minutes EWA pauses between two download attemps.
QueryInterval is the interval (in seconds) for how often EWAAutoData checks to see if QueryPause has passed.
So, in the example above EWAAutoData checks every minute (60 seconds) if at least half an hour (30 minutes) has passed since its last download attempt.
Additionaly the cache timers of each XML is checked and only if they're expired, an actual download will be tried. Otherwise EWAAutoData just skips over that API.
[Added] I've just uploaded EWA v2.0.20 and EWAAutoData v1.0.15 which - Both: fix Julian's finding about missing transactions when selling to yourself - EWAAutodata: check for chars without an associated account to prevent the error mentioned by CQ.
I'll update the version history later on. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

It might have something to do with the recent change to the Wallet Journal API. My adaption might be flawed, but I'm not sure where to look at. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

@CQ:
I have the suspicion that this might again be a case where two entries share the same refID/transaction number and therefore one of them gets discarded by EWA as a dupe. Any chance that you could mail me the two XML files? Also the refIDs of the missing entries would be helpful. If you can find them in the corp journal, but not in the personal journal, double-click the row in question in the corp journal. A new window should open with the "raw" database record. the value of the column "refID" is what I'm after. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Originally by: Companion Qube How do I dump the raw xml for the corp & personal journal? If it's easier I'm happy to send you the full api key for the character in question.
Extras -> Cached XML files. Click on the entry in question. That window has its own menu called "XML files". Select "Export to file" from there.
You may want to use the menu entry "Clear cache" first. That removes all XML files from the cache, where the cache timer has already expired, so that its easier to spot the XML in question. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

1) I guess it's best to set XP compatibility for EWA
2) Make sure EVEWalletAware.mdb is located in "C:\USERS\ALL USERS\APPLICATION DATA\EVEWALLETAWARE\DATA\".
3) Locate the INI file and make sure the above path matches the path (Data Source= ...) noted under [Database] [Database] Connection=Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\ALL USERS\APPLICATION DATA\EVEWALLETAWARE\DATA\evewalletaware.mdb;User Id=admin;Password=;
As I said before, I'm still not familiar enough with Vista/Win 7 to know to stop them from messing around with those folders.

Originally by: teppo3345345 Original question in post 225:
Originally by: Hel O'Ween
Originally by: teppo3345345 Of course the new account API will be inserted, but is there something that should be done before such change?
That depends upon your desire to keep the old data still visible. If so, you need to do an export (File -> Export/import EWA data) of that char's data prior to updating the API key/user ID for that char. After you set up the char with you new API data, import it back to this char.
If you don't care about your old data, just go ahead and change its API key/user ID. You'll still keep personal data that way, as EWA identifies personal data by characterID (which should't change, I assume). But corp data is identified by userID (=account).
I seem to have messed up big time. I wanted the old data visible, so I followed the instruvtions (File -> Export/import EWA data) and updated API after that. This was done on 15.1.2011. Now all wallet transactions before 15.1. are only shown in wallet transactions if "personal data" is selected from first page. The transaction rows which were transactions for corp are colored light blue and marked as "for : corporation". The problem is that no such transactions are visible when looking wallet transactions when "corporation data" is selected from first page.
Is there a way out to victory, or am I doomed to put the data into eg. excel and combine the transactions one by one to get correct numbers?
I have the original export file still, which was created before api change. If I remember correctly, total wipe and new import won't work since I can query new data only for one week (don't remember correctly)...
Now that we resolved this issue, I should mention that my original suggestion, which teppo followed, doesn't work in case a character gets moved from one EVE account to another.
To handle the situation that you move a character to a different account, one can either do it the way Companion Qube suggested above or contact me via email. It takes two SQL statements issued in EWA's build in DB manager, which I'm happy to guide you through, to resolve the problem. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

EWA version 2.0.21 and EWAAutoData version 1.0.16 have been released.
This reintroduces eve-marketdata.com as a price source, though in its current form it's limited compared to EVE Central.
There's also a new option to enable/disable automatic (sub)totals in the wallet transaction, wallet journal and market order windows. This was requested in regards to Excel exports so that one doesn't have to manually remove those rows in Excel.
The configuration (EVEWalletAware.ini) can now be passed by command line. If you use this option, a) make sure you update both apps and b) use the commenad line switch with both apps.

The closest you can get is go and grab the empty database from EWA's website and overwrite your current DB. But you'll lose everything (including accounts & chars) that way.

As already mentioned a few postings above, the wallet journal API, especially the corp API, seems to have some problems lately. Until now, it's not clear why and how, but you're not the only person experiencing this problem, nor is EWA the only application with which that happens.

The application log is located under Extras -> Application log. There's where erros would be listed. Also, check Extras -> Cached XML files for current files with data.
And yes, the API is unforgiving with cached data. Do you by chance run another program that might have grabed the financial data from the API?
Also, you did click that "Retrieve data from EVE API" button again, right? EWA itself won't fetch any data automatically. If you wish to do so, try the auto downloader. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Well, I know for sure that you don't need admin rights (besides from installing and updating the app itself) in XP, as I designed EWA to work without requiring admin rights. Data is stored where MS wants apps to store data: \All Users\Application Data\<your app>.
As for Vista/Win 7: Due to MS' approach to "redirect" folders ("Documents and Settings" became "Users" etc.), it seems that the OS "fools" the installer, when it queries for those folders from the OS. That's why the data ends app in folders it shouldn't and consequently admin rights seems to be needed. My installer predates Vista (which I skipped altogether) and I'm still not familiar enough with Win 7 to finally fix that behaviour.  -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Edited by: Hel O''Ween on 16/03/2011 17:28:57 If you're only interested in active orders, try the following:
- Go to Extras -> Options -> Tab "Wallet / Assets". Check the option "Import active market orders only"
- Next, go to Extras -> Database maintenace -> Compact database. There, choose "Delete market orders" and click OK.
- Pull your data from the API
This should get you rid off all old orders and from then on only import active market orders from the API. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Edited by: Hel O''Ween on 17/03/2011 08:32:50 Hmm, not sure if I understand you. And in retrospective, my previous answer might not be the solution to your request.
Anything "balance-related" always is calculated on EWA's complete data set of that account/char. With the exception of market orders and assets, where the API always returns a complete set of *all* data, EWA doesn't delete any old data. That means all your wallet transactions and journal entries are kept. From those, EWA calculates the numbers in Item details, Balance sheet, Item chart etc.
From your last reply, it seems you're only interested in the numbers from your current/last successfully completed transactions.
If that's the case, well - EWA doesn't work that way. As discussed a number of times in this forum, CCP doesn't provide a way to track items in your assets, therefore you can't identify that item <x> was bought for amount <x> and sold for amount <y> and hence no dedicated profit calculation can be done for a distinct item.
EWA takes the approach of "no matter how many items you bought for <x> ISK, in the end, if you sold them for <y>, in order to be profitable, amount bought * <x> should be lesser than amount sold * <y>". And with that assumption, all numbers are calculated. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

This is a bit of an offtopic post, but I thought I'd share this with you nonetheless.
I attended FanFest this year for the first time and coincidentally this year was the first time that CCP devoted some sessions to the EVE API, some of which I of course attended. The perhaps most important info from these sessions is that 3rd party devs are now allowed to charge real cash for their applications. You need to apply as a 3rd party dev, fill out an agreement with CCP and pay $99/year. You're then free to charge whatever and however (one time fee, subscription etc.) you like for your tool(s).
According to CCP, the motivation for this decision is that they love all the 3rd party apps out there. The problem these days: as soon as the developer(s) stop playing EVE (for whatever reason), development on those tools also stops as there's no incentive for the dev to at least maintaining it although he doesn't play anymore. Not even talking about the impossibility of being able to test one's app without an active sub and therefore no access to the API.
I'm not sure how this step will influence the scene of 3rd party apps, but I suspect that some of the now free tools will be converted to payware. And of course, the more users a tool currently has (think: EVEMon, EFT, for example), the more tempting that idea may be.
That said, I personally have no interest in going commercial with EWA. It will remain a tool provided for free. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Edited by: Hel O''Ween on 10/04/2011 16:08:21 No need to apologize. It's neither your nor my fault that we're "in between forums".
I think I know what's going on: with the new patch the wallet transactions API changed to behave like the (new) wallet journal API. I've updated EWA already - alas - the forums were down, so I decided to not publish a "silent update", but rather wait until I could also announce the new update in the (new) forum. This decision was also based on the fact that the change to the wallet transactions API would be backwards compatible. Well, from your report, it seems that's not the case.
So I beg your pardon and ask for your patience. I'll upload the new version tomorrow (Monday). In case the forums are in "maintenance mode" again, simply try EWA's update function an see if it reports a new version. The auto updater is new, too.

The DB update has been published now. EWA did not show trades with those items (Hardwirings, for example which can be puchased from the LP shop), but those trades aren't lost. As soon as you update to the new DB via EWA's built in update function, those transactions will show up in EWA.

Can you please have a look at Documents and Settings\All Users\Application data\EVEWalletAware\LOGS ("Documents and settings" and "Application data" are localized if you're using a non-english Windows version).
That's the place where the log files are written. File names starting with "ewaad" are produced by the auto downloader. One file per run. Anything unusual in there except API warnings such as "Character must have Account ... roles"? -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

I'm still buffled as to what the cause could be. I've uploaded a new version of EWAAutoData, which plots some additional information to the log file. When downloading/processing wallet transactions, it adds one of the following two lines to the log, depending on which transactions it currently retrieves:
"Character - LastTransID: <number>, TransCount: <number>" - or - "Corporation - LastTransID: <number>, TransCount: <number>"
Within the same "turn", obviously LastTransID should be different at each try.

But the transaction API changed recently so that you now can retrieve data back one month (where it previously was one week max). And you could get the data in chunks of max 2560 entries per query.
So, if you have a char with lots of transactions, this could take quite some time (and tries) until all data is pulled. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Yeah, in this regard Win7 (and Vista) is a real PITA.
- Close EWA
- Search your harddrive for the file EVEWalletAware.mdb. If you find multiple files. You might find more than one file. The one in question should be located under C:\Users ...
- Open EVEWalletAware.ini with a text editor. Make sure the file location to the database under the section [Database] at the line starting with "Connection= ..." matches the file you found above.
- Start EWA
Also setting the compatibility for EWA to "Windows XP SP3" might help. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

OK, let's see:
- The long download for transactions is most likely a) correct and not an endless loop and b) caused by the recent changes to the Wallet Transaction API which lets you walk back one month (whreas previously you either got 1000 transactions or one week's worth of data, whatever happened first). The API seems to also "spit out" the data in a weird order (see tech lab for details). This never cuased trouble for EWA, as it always donwloads every available data and just ignores transactions already present in the DB. Other developers relied on the API to deliver "newest-to-oldest" by the API and suffered from this change.
- The database/INI thing with Vista and Windows 7 I have no idea how to prevent that. Both files (EVEWalletAware.mdb and EVEWalletAware.ini) or supposed to be in C:\users\All Users\Application Data\EVEWalletAware (the DB in a subfolder). This is where EWA looks after the INI and that's the place you should edit the connection string.
BTW, the connection string's UserID and PW are no secrect. The Db is unprotected and "admin" and <blank> are Access' default settings. You could as well delete both. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Edited by: Hel O''Ween on 13/05/2011 09:33:53 Just to make sure: you clicked that big button labeled "Retrieve data from EVE API"?
If so and nothing happens, are you running other apps (EVEMon, for example) which uses the API? If so, there might be a caching conflict. The API serves to one IP address. If one app grabs data, all other apps from the same IP (and for the same account) don't get (that API) data until the cache timer has expired. If EVEMon grabs your market orders, no other app will get them. If EWA grabs your transactions, no other app will get them. EVEMon fetching skill sheet and EWA going for transactions on the other hand is fine.
If you need to run multiple apps using the same API calls, check the EVE Tech Lab. There are some EVE API proxies available.
Also, check the application log (Extras -> Application log) for possible errors.
And last but not least sometimes the API servers are down (patch deployment for example) sometimes. Their outage is not necessarily the same as TQ's online status. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Ermh, you're using your Full API key, right? Because only with the full API key, you're able to retrieve all trading relevant APIs (wallet journal & transaction, market orders). The Limited API unfortunately doesn't work with those APIs. There's has been a dev blog that this will change in the future, but until that happens the full API key is the way to go for trading apps. Well, anything beyond basic character info and skill sheet. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Edited by: Hel O''Ween on 14/05/2011 09:09:05 The quick view might "fool" you, just like the wallet transactions window, if you don't keep in mind that wallet transactions are plain sold/purchase information. It doesn't take your Margin Trading skill into account. Remember, the (first part) of your purchases will be sold using the escrow. Only after the escrow is spent, the remaining items will be sold using ISKs from your wallet.
So, if you're buying items, the transaction part of the quick view shows those as a negative numer (just like the ingame transaction view), whereas in reality no ISK were taken (yet) from your wallet, as the ISk have been payed upfront into escrow. This may result in a "loss" being displayed, although you're wallet has gone up in reality.
Your real wealth development is better reflected in the wallet journal, as any escrow payed when putting up a buy order is refelcted there.
Think of the transactions as a way to keep track of your margins (do you sell higher than you bought?).
I'm not sure if your "information displayed is plainly wrong" is also referring to the quick view, but that may explain it. The graphs shown are the transactions, not the journal. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

What is the best way to easily see my profit for a given time period?
If you're after "real number", i.e. escrow and fees/taxes included, try Wallet -> Balance sheet -> By journal. You might want to tick "Market related only" to filter out non-trade related journal entries like agent mission rewards, bounties etc. However, just like the ingame journal, these are raw numbers. You don't see what's selling good this way.
If you're looking for profit on trades (did you make more oney selling an item than you payed for it), try Wallet -> Balance sheet -> By transactions. All items are listed there. For a breakdown of a specific item, try Wallet -> Item details.
But with EWA there are a couple of ways to skin the cat. Play around with it and see which of its options works best for you. I myself work mainly with the Wallet Transactions and Wallet Journal windows, for example. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

EWA version 2.0.24 along with a database update (version 21) has been released. You need to apply both updates in order for the new feature to work.
This new version lets you ignore wallet transactions, meaning those won't be shown anywhere nor used for calculations.
EWAAutoData hasen't been updated, as this is purely a change in how EWA handles existing data.
As always, see the version history for details. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Originally by: Izaac Newton Sorry but for the life of me I cant find where to hide the plex purchases?
- Make sure your version of EWA is the most current one as the "Ignore transactions" option (I guess that's what you're after) was added in the last release.
- Open the wallet transactions window. - Find your PLEX purchase in there. The easiest way to do so is to set the "Item" filter to "PLEX". (If you also sell PLEX set the "Transaction type" filter to "Buy") - Rightclick on the grid row with your PLEX purchase and select "Mark as ignored". -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

The issue I'm having is that large chunks of data are missing, and the totals for a couple of things are incorrect. The rental expenses were about 60% short of the actual figure, having missed some of the offices entirely. Wallet withdrawals, donations/deposits and sales taxes are not being listed at all. I've checked all these against the EVE ledger to get the accurate data, but I'm still about 890k short of actual income... and I'm concerned that the error may be in the totals for bounties and mission rewards/bonuses. Due to the massive number of entries in the journal for those income streams, I'm not inclined to trawl through them one by one to check them out - so I can't confirm that theory. I've looked everywhere else though.
Well, "missing" is quite a broad term with which I hardly can figure out your problem. There are some general points you need to know about the API which I might mention (again): - The API doesn't go as far back in time as your ingame wallet. Both wallet transactions and journals are restriced to 1 month worth of data - With the recent changes to the journal and transactions API, it seems that the API even then doesn't provide all available data with one fetch, but "catches up" if you query the same data again. So, I'd suggest you grab the auto downloader and let it run in the background a couple of hours and check your data again.
Also, it would be good to know which of EWA's options (wallet journal window, balance sheet ...) you're exactly using. Otherwise I'm a bit lost as to where to look at. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Ahhh, boy, do I hate it.
This new dev blog migh be of interest to you guys, too.
TL;DR Market Order API will only return active market orders.
Which is terribly annoying as I've just finally gotten around to implement an order alert feature which would let you see which orders changed their state between two API data queries. Basically the most common state would be a change from "Active" to "Expired/Fullfilled". That way you would have an easier way to figure out when and what to restock.
If the API change in the above linked dev blog goes through as it is, I can completely scrap anything I coded.  -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Incarna introduced a change to the API (basically making more room for upcoming IDs).
I had to change both the application and the database for this. I haven't published the new version yet, as I hoped CCP would publish the new database dump for Incarna pretty close to the Incarna release itself and I could just publish *one* database update with both included (changes to the API and new Incarna items), but - hey - CCP had better things to do, like coming up with a way of slapping long established 3rd party devs right in the face. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

I'm not currently boycotting CCP as things are still the way as they were in the past.
My thoughts are that I give CCP a grace period for publishing the new DB dump 'til next week (1 week after Incarna release). If there's still no new DB dump up, I'll release my new version and issue another DB update after CCP published Incarna data.
That said, the whole situation / state of the game / behavior of CCP within the last months is not exactly what I sense as "motivating". And this not just because of the 3rd party license stuff. For me it started with the security debacle of the new forums. It continued through the Incursion patchfest, the 3rd party licensing and finally peaked into the whole MT and CQ stuff.
My machine goes crazy while I'm docked. And I'm someone who doesn't care about shiny GFX. Since I started playing EVE more than 5 years ago, I have always turn my GFX settings to "low" and disabled all effects. Still my machine vents like an old steamboat.

More on topic: just to be clear, the reason EWA isn't currently downloading market information is because of Incarna's API change that you mention in this post, and the next EWA version, which you're waiting to release until CCP releases their DB dump, will fix it, correct? I totally understand the rationale behind waiting, I just want to be sure I understand why EWA isn't currently working for me.
Exactly. As with the wallet journal in a previous expansion, CCP extended the data type for the ID fields in both wallet transactions and market orders with the release of Incarna.
Unfortunately, this requires a change for EWA in both the app and the DB, otherwise I would have published the update last week already.
If CCP hasn't published a DB dump by tomorrow's DT (which I don't think will be the case), I'll go ahead and release the new update.
tl;dr: You'll get a new release tomorrow, most likely followed by another database update within some days, which then includes the new Incarna items. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Edited by: Hel O''Ween on 28/06/2011 10:00:32 EWA version 2.0.25, EWAAutoData 1.0.19, DB 22 have been released.
This update implements the API changes introduced with Incarna.
In case you're not aware of it: with Incarna, the Market Order API was changed to only return active orders.
This is very bad in two ways. In general, you can't get any information about expired (read: needs to be restocked) orders any more. Specifically for EWA: I already had a new feature implemented, which would notify you of expired orders. The logic had been implemented, just the screens had to be finished. A couple of days woth of work for the trash bin ...
If you want to raise your concerns re. only active market orders from the API, use this thread and make yourself heard.
As always, see the version history for details.
[Added] CCP has not published the official Incarna database dump, yet. This means two things:
1) Another EWA database update is due in the hopefully not so far future. 2) Any NEx items you already traded will not show up until that DB update has arrived. However, those records are not lost, they simply don't show up until they can be properly referenced in the database. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Edited by: Hel O''Ween on 28/06/2011 15:18:27 Exactly.
Previously the API returned market orders with the following flags:
0 - Active 1 - Closed 2 - Expired/Fulfilled 3 - Cancelled 4 - Pending 5 - Character deleted
(Note: I've personally never have seen other states than Active and Expired/Fulfilled)
Due to "heavy API load", CCP - in all of its wisdom - decided to remove any market order from the API data with a state other than 0 - Active. Go figure ...
You still see the journal/transaction entries for the fulfilled past orders. But building up a market order history out of those is a bit clumsy. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Originally by: CCP Elerhino
Edited by: CCP Elerhino on 27/06/2011 10:03:04 We've been looking into the MarketOrder issue but finding a solution that is both simple and optimal has proven difficult. The reason is the nature of market orders, specifically how dates are stored and how they change and how the data can be retrieved in a cost-effective way. Basically us API people are arguing for simple but the DB team understandably wants optimal. Right now it looks like we'll do paging, something like the wallet transaction API, we hope that will solve the problem even though it might cost you guys some extra work. I was hoping for something simpler, e.g. include a week or a month of expired orders in the list but, like I wrote, that solution is not optimal from a DB standpoint. We'll get a solution ready as soon as possible, hopefully within the next few weeks.

There seem to be some issued with the wallet journal API lately. Over in the Tech Lab, a few player mentioned that they can't retrieve journal data correctly. I also had a case these days were instead of getting journal data, an error was returned by the API, with error number 0 (doesn't exist according to the docs ...) and some error message along the lines of me harassing Scotty ...
See Extras -> Cached XML files if there's a wallet journal entry present and if it holds any meaningful data.
That said, wallet journal is what your ingame wallet journal shows you, just like wallet transactions. So for pure trade profits, I'd say the transactions are more appropriate. For a broad overview of profits, Balance sheet -> Wallet transactions seems to a good start. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Well, this report at least shows me that my intended fix works. Before that, EWA would just crash.
Now, as for the problem: as mentioned a couple of times, Win 7 does some weird things with paths. If you search your hard drive for EVEWalletAware.mdb, you will find at least two locations.

Oh boy, I just took a closer look at the new API key system and realized that it breaks EWA in so many places. 
While I was one of the first guys to lobby for customizable API keys, the way it's implemented, or rather the way the old system with Limited/Full keys was implemented, hurts me badly. Don't take me wrong, I'm not blaming CCP for this. But from a first glance at it, the amount of work needed to implement this change isn't funny.  |

Yes, but without fees for changing orders. There's currently no way of linking those to a specific transaction.

That's confusing because I don't think my margin was THAT bad...
Keep two things in mind:
1) make sure you have set the skill levels for Broker Relation etc. right for that character (see Extras -> Options)
2) EWA estimates fees & taxes. While EWA gets the bare percentages right for the skills involved, it doesn't take your standing towards the NPC corp at the station where the transaction took place into account. It therefore assumes a standing of 0. You're real margin is most likely better than the one calculated by EWA. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Yes. Disable broker fees and sales tax estimation in the options (Extras -> Options -> tab "Wallet / Assets") and in the wallet transaction window set the filter "Transaction Type" to "Buy" and "Item" to "Cap Recharger II".

I can, however, use EVE Mentat to sum up all of my change orders, taxes, and fees for that same period of time and deduct that from my gross sales which I derive from WalletAware.
You can do the same filtering in the wallet journal window. There's also the two Balance sheets.
I admit the EWA menawhile is a "beast" in the sense that there are a couple of ways to skin the cat. You just need to find out which way is the best for you. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

The issue still persists. Sometimes the (wallet journal) API returns results, sometimes an error. Just try downloading it again. It often doesn't work for the first try for me, querying it a second time works. But that might just be coincidence ... -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

My guess is that the estimates (when activated in Options) reduce the Total column based on the skill levels you input, to kind of give you a rough net profit if you subtract Total from Price.
Why guess? I linked the relevant manual part where this is explained.

Do you see where I'm going? I think the core issue here is how do you link an items buy price to its sell price. That's the only true way you can derive net from, that I know of...
Yeah, I see where you're going: you haven't read this thread as this has been asked and explained numerous times: there is currently no way of proper linking a) transactions vs. journal entries (transactions + fess/taxes) and b) identifying unique items so that you could link the purchase (price) of an item to it's sale (price).
A couple of the trader apps do some guesswork there, working with a FIFO approach, and try to link buy vs. sale. But for my taste that's too vague. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Originally by: Hel O'Ween There seem to be some issued with the wallet journal API lately. Over in the Tech Lab, a few player mentioned that they can't retrieve journal data correctly. I also had a case these days were instead of getting journal data, an error was returned by the API, with error number 0 (doesn't exist according to the docs ...) and some error message along the lines of me harassing Scotty ...
<?xml version="1.0"?>, <eveapi version="2">, <currentTime>2011-07-14 07:24:23</currentTime>, <error code="0">General Error: Scotty the docking manager heard you were talking **** about him behind his back and refuses to service your request.</error>, <cachedUntil>2011-07-14 08:24:23</cachedUntil>, </eveapi>,
edit: so the forums censor **** but its ok in the API?
Yepp, that's the one I mentioned above. Another try a day later downloaded the journal just fine for me.
And please note the <error code="0">. Compare that the the error list that the API is supposed to report: http://wiki.eve-id.net/APIv2_Eve_ErrorList_XML.
Good news: CCP finally found out what the problem was. Bad news: it won't be fixed until end of August. It seems they roll it out with the customizable API key(s) (meanwhile coined "CAK" by the 3rd party dev community) change.

Originally by: MegabitOne If the correct error message seems to be produced, I guess some error handling can be added to prevent the application crashing because of it, no?
Even better than that: I shouldn't try moving things around when min/maxed ... but if I only knew what moves.
I know I had a couple of those errors in the early days, but thought that I since have got rid of those. Have you EWA set up to minimize to the system tray?
Originally by: Inanna NiKunni
but there is no way to get your own tax contribution if you only look at your own wallet as far a i can tell.
any help with this matter will be greatly appreciated
Yes, that's because the personal API doesn't give those numbers away. However, with a bit of estimation, that should be roughly reproducable: save the output of the (personal) journal balance sheet to Excel format (or pull your personal wallet journal data into the spreadsheet of your choice) and apply the corp's tax rate to Agent Mission Reward, Agent Mission Time Reward, Bount Prices. Substract your best guess of non-taxable amounts (< 200k ISK, but I'm not sure about that) from it and you're done. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Hi I can't get any journal entries from after 1st Aug even though I've reinstalled, compacted database, etc - all the suggested stuff. Is this because of the above? EveWallet is great btw, just this recent glitch 
Most likely. Read the above messages and look at your cached XML files. If the wallet journal file has that infamous "Scotty is angry" in it, it's due to that problem. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

EWA does work, if the API does work. The wallet journal API has problems atm, which will be resolved at the end of August. It's not a consistant error, though. Sometimes it does return journal data and sometimes not ...  -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

EWA will add anything that a) is delivered by the API and b) is missing from EWA's database. The limitation is the time frame for which the API delivers data. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

EWA version 2.0.26, EWAAutoData 1.0.20, DB 24 (Incarna 1.1) have been released.
This update implements the new Customisable API Key ("CAK") system. Please note that the old API key system will still work for the time being. However, if you decide to download and use this EWA version, you need to go to https://support.eveonline.com/api and create a new API key.
As always, see the version history for details.
This is also the last release of EWA.
I won't develop EWA anymore. The $99 dev license/Incarna/MT thing has completely destroyed my joy for this game and company. Since Incarna has been released, I've only logged in to change skills. And I don't even miss the game. My initial plan after $99 dev license/Incarna was to stop development right away, but the new API key system made me rethink my decision. It would have left you with a broken tool too soon. As CCP's shortcomings are not your fault, I decided to issue a last release of EWA which hopefully gives you enough time to find a new trading tool to which you can migrate.
My sbscription runs out in December and I will try to fix bugs related to the new API key system in that time. After that ... well, time will tell. I'm not saying I'll never come back, EVE - the concept - is still unique and appealing. It's just that the actual implemetation of this idea in the last years leaves a lot to be desired. At least to me.
Farewell my friends and thank you for your support throughout the years. Have fun and fly safe! -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Well, generally sad to hear. The part of EWA I still like most is the fact one has a course idea how much ISK the assests are worth. not only the estimation of the assets worth is a big advantage of EWA, it also sums up the the items.
As for asset evaluation, you should also give jEveAssets a try.

For a single player setup (i. e. for me) do I really need to enter the verification code and keyID for my corp or is that part not required?
If you never switch to "Corporation Data", a personal key should be enough. I haven't thoroughly tested that, but it should work. If not, just let me know. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Well, there are two new entries: keyID and vCode.
"Account name" is something you come up with yourself to identify that EWA account (you can create more than one EWA account, letting you switch betwenn different accounts/chars.
User ID ist still your User ID. Hover over your portrait in this forum and note the number after "cid". That's your User ID (which basically is your account ID with CCP). Before you ask - EWA uses the User ID basically as a "corp ID". This way (older) corporation data is still available for that character, even if he changes corps.
As for keyID and vCode - after you have created at least one new API key, you'll be presented with a table of your API keys on the new API key generation page. Just copy the contents of the accordingly labeled columns of that table to EWA. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Originally by: Endorphinchen helped me a lot thx, but I still can't save the information, filled everything accordingly but if I hit the save button nothing happens. Am I dumb?
My bad, I published the database with the wrong columns. To fix this, go to Extras -> Database maintenance -> Direct dabase query. Past each of the following lines as a single line separately in the "Your query" field and hit the "Execute query" button after each line.
alter table banav_tEVEAPIKeys add column vCodeChar varchar(255) NULL; alter table banav_tEVEAPIKeys add column vCodeCorp varchar(255) NULL; alter table banav_tEVEAPIKeys add column keyIDChar int; alter table banav_tEVEAPIKeys add column keyIDCorp int; alter table banav_tEVEAPIKeys drop column vCode; alter table banav_tEVEAPIKeys drop column keyID;
To verify success after you've done so, click on "banav_tEVEAPIKeys" in the "Available tables" list. The fields vCodeChar, vCodeCorp, keyIDChar, keyIDCorp should now appear in the "Available fields" list. Columns named vCode and keyID should not be present anymore.
Restart EWA and try storing your API credentials again.

1. My Custom Key has only 1 ID and 1 veryfication Code for my char, can I paste them in the vCode(Corp) and Corp ID ?
If you're not using EWA's corp part, you should be able to leave those fields blank.

2. tried to import characters but It didn't work
Is there any error message(s) in the application log?

3. I already gave my custom API Key full permission on everything I could.
Full access isn't necessary. I'll update the manual when time permits as to what APIs you really need. Off the top of my head you for sure don't need:
