I have created 2 robos, each scrapeing around 1000 page. They without any error but fail to run on openkapow server.

It gives me different errors each time i run it.

 I am very much dependent on the output of these robots for my application. Can some one suggest me how can I either

- run the code from my server so I m not dependent on openkapow server

- or make sure my robo runs on the server

 Please help me,

My guess is that your robots are exceeding the 5 minute time limit to run.  You can try breaking down your robot to retrieve your data in chunks.

Does this mean that it´s not possible to run robots from the users´ own server?

I also would like to run my robots from my own server as the Openkapow server sometimes (I have expreienced this to times over a period of one week) seem unstable, i.e. it could not execute the robot. I was given the reply that something went wrong with the XML, some elements were not found. This is weird since it occurs at the same time with all of my robots. After a while they seem OK again...

I think the same than dng050, i also want to know how can it cost to have my own server.

You should look at kapowtech.com (the makers of openkapow) and ask them for a price quote.
