Is already working with the new version of Linkedin?

When I execute the command ./linkedin-scraper https://www.linkedin.com/in/blablabla/
I got this error:

/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/mechanize-2.7.4/lib/mechanize/http/agent.rb:942:in response_read': 999 => -- https://www.linkedin.com/in/blablabla/ (Mechanize::ResponseCodeError) from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/mechanize-2.7.4/lib/mechanize/http/agent.rb:270:in block in fetch'

Anyone of you has the same problem?

It worked twice for me out of a few hundred times - Im assuming maybe we need new user agents?

I'm not sure but need help!

Will post if I find anything out.

I don't understand why you have to start another issue when there are 2 discussing about this already =_=

Linkedin is strict. It identifies bot requests and sends a 404 repsonse

I found using curl to authentic linkedin worked well, also I have been able to pull down profile requests as well, the issue I am running in too is processing the java script so it can be readable in DOMdocument so I can use XPATH to scrape the information. right now I have a bunch of pregmatch trickery going on sorting through json output that comes down. I wrote my script php, its a class object, anyone care to help with it ? I tried using php-phantomjs , it works well unless you hit a redirect or need to use cookies. I am sure with some time and effort it will work.
