Import Roster Error Message - CBS League

Maverick577  3/29/2016 7:22 AM

I am trying to update the rosters on my CBS league but keep on getting the following message.   Has anyone else come across this before?    Having the rosters updated throughout the year will be a huge asset to me.    

The underlying connection was closed: The connection was closed unexpectedly.

We're currently having trouble accessing CBS and expect to have it fixed today.  Sorry for the trouble.

Maverick577  3/29/2016 8:02 AM

Awesome!   Thank you for the quick response.

This problem is also happening for me. 

robertraush  3/30/2016 10:40 PM

I'm having the same exact issue.  Was the problem resolved?

ken_admin  3/31/2016 9:21 AM

This still needs to be fixed, and I'll take another shot today.

Any chance this will be fixed before season opens?

ken_admin  4/1/2016 2:26 PM

I have a workaround for basketball which should allow importing rosters.  I have my doubts about the CBS draft tracking though. Is it the importing you need?

robertraush  4/2/2016 2:02 AM

My draft happened already so I'm just looking for the ability to import the teams and track the free agents available.

Maverick577  4/2/2016 6:47 AM

I was looking to do the same as Robertraush.    I see the in season roster tracking to be far more important.    Hoping to snipe a few free agents before anyone else in my league knows they are performing well.

I'm looking to import rosters from CBS.  During the draft, in past years, I have just done the import multiple times to get the list of available players up to date to help me pick.  Any chance that this will be working again?  As of right now (11:54PM CDT on 4/2), this give the "The underlying connection was closed: The connection was closed unexpectedly."

Thanks in advance for any help.  This is a great site and I'm looking forward to you guys getting things straightened out for next year so I can keep giving you my money.

I'll have an alternate method ready on Monday.

Has there been an update on this? I'm unable to import my CBS teams. Thanks.

ken_admin  4/5/2016 6:59 AM

I should have something working today and ready for tomorrow. Sorry for the delay.

ken_admin  4/5/2016 11:04 AM

There's a test version on this site if you'd like to try importing:

No dice for me

That all looks right so I'll see what I can find.

ken_admin  4/5/2016 1:30 PM

Can you try one more time?  It will send me your data this time. Thanks

DividedByZero  4/5/2016 3:19 PM

Not working for me, either. I tried it a couple times and tried switching to source mode as well. Can email you the data if you want, but gmail is totally mangling the markup I past in. Happy to keep an eye on and help debug -- I found your interface much better for ID'ing FAs than what's available on CBS's site.

ken_admin  4/5/2016 3:50 PM

I've updated the website if you can please try again:

oconnellc  4/5/2016 4:05 PM

I just tested and I still get the error trying to import the CBS website.

ken_admin  4/5/2016 4:24 PM

I must have messed up the update.  If you try again, I believe it will work.

oconnellc  4/5/2016 4:42 PM

OK, I got it to import this time.  Thanks a ton for your help with this!

ken_admin  4/5/2016 4:43 PM

Whew! Thanks for the update.

robertraush  4/5/2016 4:55 PM

I just got it to import but haven't checked to make sure it's all right yet.  Will let you know if any issues.  Thank you!

DividedByZero  4/5/2016 5:19 PM

Import worked for me as well --thanks!

larsons45  4/6/2016 9:56 AM

Is this still working for everyone? I'm still having issues doing it the manual way.

ken_admin  4/6/2016 10:18 AM

I have your input data and will take a look shortly.

Michaels Revenge  4/6/2016 10:33 AM

I cannot get this to work.  I get an error saying imported 0 teams.

ken_admin  4/6/2016 12:56 PM

I've updated the test site again if you'd like to try there:

larsons45  4/6/2016 1:23 PM

Worked for me now! Thanks!

ken_admin  4/6/2016 1:26 PM

Great, and thanks for the update.

robertraush  5/23/2016 11:47 PM

What happened to the CBS Import function under "team players" in the settings section?  I had been able to update the teams all season up until last week, but now it just seems to have disappeared. Can you please add that back?  It's a great function to be able to track the available players and how they are playing over the past few weeks.

Please advise.

Thanks - Rob

ken_admin  5/24/2016 9:07 AM

I didn't think the CBS login version was working.  You were able to enter your league ID, username, and password to import your league?

ken_admin  5/24/2016 10:43 AM

I have restored the CBS inputs, and the CBS automated import is working correctly for those who've been using the manual process.

robertraush  5/24/2016 10:36 PM

The CBS import function had worked for me all season but for some reason isn't working now.  How can I get this fixed?  I re-entered my league ID, username and password, however I get the following "There were no teams imported" error message.

ken_admin  5/25/2016 5:40 AM

It looks like your login may be incorrect since it's not returning your teams.  Can you make sure you're using the same login that works here:
