Proxy For Race

To install a proxy server in Google Chrome, you must do the following steps:

Open the browser.
Click the "?" icon in the upper right corner.
Go to "Settings".
Select the "Advanced" option.
Click the "System" tab.
Click on "Open proxy settings for your computer".
Click on "Network settings".
Activate the "Use proxy server" option.
In the tab that opens, specify the IP address of the proxy server. You must enter the address in the field of the protocol to which the proxy server belongs. You can get this information from the provider. Click the "OK" button to save your settings.

When working with OpenXML, you may need to parse date values from date-formatted cells in Excel spreadsheets. The date values in OpenXML are represented as numeric values, and you need to convert these numeric values to DateTime objects.

Here's an example using C# and the DocumentFormat.OpenXml library to parse date values from an Excel spreadsheet:

1. Install the Open XML SDK:

   • If you haven't already, install the DocumentFormat.OpenXml NuGet package:

nuget install DocumentFormat.OpenXml

Write the Parsing Code:

• Create a C# script or add the following code to your project:

using System;
using DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Packaging;
using DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Spreadsheet;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        string filePath = "path/to/your/excelfile.xlsx"; // Replace with the path to your Excel file

        // Call the function to parse dates from the Excel file
        ParseDatesFromExcel(filePath);
    }

    static void ParseDatesFromExcel(string filePath)
    {
        using (SpreadsheetDocument spreadsheetDocument = SpreadsheetDocument.Open(filePath, false))
        {
            WorkbookPart workbookPart = spreadsheetDocument.WorkbookPart;
            SharedStringTablePart sharedStringTablePart = workbookPart.GetPartsOfType().FirstOrDefault();

            if (sharedStringTablePart != null)
            {
                foreach (WorksheetPart worksheetPart in workbookPart.WorksheetParts)
                {
                    foreach (Cell cell in worksheetPart.Worksheet.Descendants())
                    {
                        if (cell.DataType != null && cell.DataType.Value == CellValues.SharedString)
                        {
                            int sharedStringIndex = int.Parse(cell.InnerText);
                            string sharedStringValue = sharedStringTablePart.SharedStringTable.Elements().ElementAt(sharedStringIndex).InnerText;

                            if (DateTime.TryParse(sharedStringValue, out DateTime parsedDate))
                            {
                                Console.WriteLine($"Parsed Date: {parsedDate.ToShortDateString()}");
                            }
                            else
                            {
                                Console.WriteLine("Not a valid date format.");
                            }
                        }
                        else if (cell.CellValue != null)
                        {
                            if (DateTime.TryParse(cell.CellValue.Text, out DateTime parsedDate))
                            {
                                Console.WriteLine($"Parsed Date: {parsedDate.ToShortDateString()}");
                            }
                            else
                            {
                                Console.WriteLine("Not a valid date format.");
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

2. • Replace "path/to/your/excelfile.xlsx" with the actual path to your Excel file.

3. Run the Code:

   • Execute the code, and it will print parsed date values from the Excel file.

This code uses the SpreadsheetDocument class from the DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Packaging namespace to open the Excel file, and it iterates through the cells to parse and print date values. It checks if the cell contains a shared string (string stored in the shared string table) or a direct value. If it's a valid date, it parses and prints it. Adjust the code according to your specific needs and Excel file structure.

If your Selenium ChromeDriver with Python has stopped working, there could be various reasons behind it. Here are some common troubleshooting steps to identify and resolve the issue:

1. Check ChromeDriver Version:

   • Ensure that the version of ChromeDriver you are using is compatible with the version of Google Chrome installed on your machine. Download the latest ChromeDriver version from the official website if needed.

2. Update Chrome Browser:

   • Make sure your Google Chrome browser is up to date. An incompatible ChromeDriver version may not work correctly with an outdated browser.

3. Update Selenium WebDriver:

   • Ensure that you have the latest version of the Selenium WebDriver library installed. You can update it using:

pip install --upgrade selenium

• Check Chrome Browser Version:

  • Verify the version of your Google Chrome browser. You can find this information in the Chrome browser by going to "Settings -> About Chrome." Ensure that the ChromeDriver version matches this version.

• Provide ChromeDriver Path Explicitly:

  • Specify the path to ChromeDriver explicitly when creating a WebDriver instance. For example:

from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path='/path/to/chromedriver')

• • Replace '/path/to/chromedriver' with the actual path to your ChromeDriver executable.

• Check for Errors and Logs:

  • Examine any error messages or logs generated during the execution of your Selenium script. These messages can provide clues about what might be going wrong.

• Firewall/Antivirus:

  • Check if your firewall or antivirus software is blocking ChromeDriver. Temporarily disable these to test if they are causing the issue.

• Headless Mode:

  • If you are running ChromeDriver in headless mode, try running it without headless mode to see if the issue persists.

• Temporary Directory Access:

  • Ensure that the process running your Selenium script has the necessary permissions to write to the temporary directory. ChromeDriver may need to write to the system's temporary directory during execution.

• Try a Different Browser:

  • If the issue persists with Chrome, try using a different browser (e.g., Firefox) to see if the problem is specific to Chrome or if it's a more general WebDriver issue.

• Reinstall ChromeDriver:

  • Consider reinstalling ChromeDriver by downloading the latest version and replacing the existing executable.

• Check for System Updates:

  • Ensure that your operating system is up to date. Some issues may be resolved by updating the underlying system libraries.

• Check Browser Extensions:

  • Disable any browser extensions or plugins that might interfere with the WebDriver.

• • Replace '/path/to/chromedriver' with the actual path to your ChromeDriver executable.

• Check for Errors and Logs:

  • Examine any error messages or logs generated during the execution of your Selenium script. These messages can provide clues about what might be going wrong.

• Firewall/Antivirus:

To configure a proxy on your MikroTik router, you need the Winbox software. The following steps must be done in the application: Open the "IP"-"WebProxy" sections. Check the box next to "Enabled". Enter the parameters of the proxy-server.

After that you have to specify the data of the proxy in the browser to be used. As an example, let's take Google Chrome. What you need to do:

Open the browser.
Click on the icon "?" in the upper right corner.
Go to "Settings".
Select the "Advanced" option.
Click the "System" tab.
Click on "Open proxy settings for your computer".
Click on "Network settings".
Activate the "Use proxy server" option.
In the tab that opens, specify the IP address of the proxy server. You should enter it in the field of the protocol to which the proxy server belongs.
Click the "OK" button to save your settings.

For Telegram, it is recommended to use paid proxy servers of the Socks5 protocol. These proxies provide the user with data protection and high and stable connection speed. Telegram developers recommend using servers from European countries.
