            The DXLab Launcher errorlog you sent me indicated that the Launcher cannot

download the file

http://www.dxlabsui te.com/ReleaseIn fo.txt

When I first asked if you could view this file in your web browser, your

response was "no" -- leading me to believe that the problem lies in your

Internet Explorer security settings (which govern all internet access by

applications) . If that's not the case, meaning that you can view the above

file with Internet Explorer, then the problem is likely more serious -- a

misconfiguration or defect in the Windows TCP/IP stack. This conclusion is

based on the assumption that there's no firewall or other anti-malware

software that might be stopping the Launcher from downloading the above

file.

If you can't correct whatever it is that's preventing the Launcher from

accessing the internet, then you could install DXLab applications manually.

Without internet access, however, DXKeeper won't be able to synchronize with

eQSL.cc or LotW, and SpotCollector could only be used with a single VHF/UHF

PacketCluster since it would be unable to connect to telnet or web-based

spot sources.

Here, for example, are the step-by-step instructions for manually installing

DXKeeper:

http://www.dxlabsui te.com/dxkeeper/ download. htm

You'll find similar manual installation instructions on each DXLab

application' s web page.

Still playing with this today with no luck.  One interesting thing to note. 

I do not have Pathfinder installed yet.  When I select the "install" button

within Launcher it begins the process and then fails with the error "error

while downloading: 404 Not Found".  I can visit the website from launcher

with no problems.  Any thoughts??

No certificate is required to access those two URLs, Steve, so I

doubt

that's the problem. Were you able to view those two URLs with Internet

Explorer?

Having a friend help you sounds like a good next step. I'll be around on

Saturday, and would be happy to talk with you or him in real time if needed.

still does the same thing.  I am on the phone with a good friend who is the

head of ATA Airlines IT Dept,  He seams to thing that there is a certicifate

problem.  Question: is this what you are thinking and if so.  This friend

(steve N9OI) wishes to look at the computer before i get to far inside this

part of the software.  He can"t get here till Saturday. do you think this is

Got it, thanks.

The errorlog shows the Launcher is unable to access either

http://www.dxlabsui te.com/ReleaseIn fo.txt

or

http://www.dxlabsui te.com/FullInfo. txt

Something on your PC is preventing the Launcher from accessing the internet.

Can you visit the above two URLs with Internet Explorer?

I suggest that you temporarily disable your anti-virus, firewall, and other

anti-malware software and then quickly click the Launcher's New? button to

see if it can access the internet; then re-enable your protection. If this

doesn't enable the Launcher to display the available versions, then some

part of the TCP/IP stack on your PC is likely misconfigured or

non-functional.

OK. Then please do the following on the Launcher's Config

window:

1. check the "log debugging info" box

2. click the New? button

3. uncheck the "log debugging info" box

there's a "Distribution site" selector; to what is this set?

If its not set, open it and choose any of the three distribution sites. Can

Re: Problem in WW 5.9.0

Dave AA6YQ

#59556

In WinWarbler 5.9.0, my goal was to make the explanatory popup windows that
appear when the mouse hovers over a macro button display the actual text
that would be transmitted were the associated macro invoked -- including
line breaks. Unfortunately, the standard explanatory popup mechanism
("tooltips") provided by the version of Visual Basic used to construct
WinWarbler does not correctly display line breaks -- its displays all
control characters as small square boxes. To overcome this, I implemented a
new mechanism for use with macro buttons -- but this implementation was
clearly problematic.

I've emailed a new WinWarbler release to those of you reporting problems;
please let me know how it goes. Thanks!

Subject: [dxlab] Problem in WW 5.9.0

After installing WW 5.9.0 there was the following problem:

The macro mouse-hoover facility let the multi-line window with the
content of a macro pop up but quite often it was impossible to let it
disappear again even with the mouse moved away within a very short time
to a completely different position. The window, however, stayed open
and covered a small part of Spotcollector I wanted to be fully
displayed again (WW and SC use the same area of the monitor with major
overlapping).

The only way to get rid of the problem was to shut down WW and re-start
WW again. After five of those events I gave up and re-installed 5.8.9
again.

I don't know if somebody else can replicate the problem (Dave, as you
may remember I cannot create any useful errorlogs for the next two
weeks).

Got it, thanks.

The errorlog shows the Launcher is unable to access either

http://www.dxlabsui te.com/ReleaseIn fo.txt

or

http://www.dxlabsui te.com/FullInfo. txt

Something on your PC is preventing the Launcher from accessing the internet.

Can you visit the above two URLs with Internet Explorer?

I suggest that you temporarily disable your anti-virus, firewall, and other

anti-malware software and then quickly click the Launcher's New? button to

see if it can access the internet; then re-enable your protection. If this

doesn't enable the Launcher to display the available versions, then some

part of the TCP/IP stack on your PC is likely misconfigured or

non-functional.

"July 2, 2008 (IDG News Service) Microsoft Corp. <http://www.computerworld.com/action/inform.do?command=search&searchTerms=Microsoft+Corporation> has loosened the hardware restrictions that PC makers must adhere to in order to install Windows XP <http://www.computerworld.com/action/inform.do?command=search&searchTerms=Microsoft+Windows+XP> on ultralow-cost PCs, according to documents seen by IDG News Service.

While June 30 marked the last day <http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&taxonomyId=89&articleId=9104878> for selling most new Windows XP licenses, Microsoft has made several exceptions for the older operating system, including its use on ultralow-cost laptops such as the Asus Eee PC <http://www.computerworld.com/action/inform.do?command=search&searchTerms=ASUS+Eee+PC>, as well as on an emerging class of minidesktops. These devices are sometimes called "netbooks" or "nettops."

Microsoft is offering Windows XP Home Edition to encourage PC makers to use that operating system instead of Linux on the low-cost machines, but it has placed restrictions on the hardware that can be offered.

Under the new terms, outlined in the documents, PC makers must limit screen size to 14.1 in. and hard-drive capacity to 160GB. Ultralow-cost PCs with touch screens will also be eligible. Earlier terms set in April <http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&articleId=9075062> did not allow touch screens at all and limited screen sizes to 10.2 in. and hard-drive capacity to 80GB. The processors are still limited to a single-core chip running at no more than 1 GHz, with memory limited to 1GB of RAM.

Ultralow-cost PCs are an emerging class of products with limited system capabilities in the $250 to $500 range. Examples include the Asus Eee PC <http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&articleId=9052520> and Microstar International's Wind <http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&taxonomyName=mobile_devices&articleId=9100838>. They are designed for basic tasks such as surfing the Internet and sending e-mail, but not for more advanced tasks like video editing.

The updated terms, especially the larger screen size, mean Windows XP can be used on machines that look more like standard low-cost laptops. But ultralow-cost PCs are not only defined by their size, and they remain a distinct product category due to their limited performance, said Roger Kay <http://www.computerworld.com/action/inform.do?command=search&searchTerms=Roger+Kay>, founder and president of Endpoint Technologies Associates Inc. "You can have a low-cost PC that's not small," Kay said.

The goal of the program is apparently to limit the hardware capabilities of such PCs so that they don't eat into the market for mainstream PCs running Windows Vista <http://www.computerworld.com/action/inform.do?command=search&searchTerms=Microsoft+Windows+Vista>, something both Microsoft and PC vendors would want to avoid.

As part of the new terms, Microsoft also added low-cost desktops to the list of products eligible for Windows XP Home, and it added Windows Vista Home Basic as a second operating system option.

Microsoft declined to comment on the matter, saying it doesn't speak publicly about the details of its agreements with PC makers.

Low-cost PC vendors may be pushing Microsoft to keep Windows XP available, Kay said. Linux is another option for ultralow-cost PCs, but is not yet a viable alternative, according to Kay. "I don't think Linux is going anywhere in the low-cost market," he said. "Linux doesn't really cut it when it comes to compatibility."

The documents show that for developed markets, Microsoft charges $32 to install XP Home Edition on standard netbooks and $47 for netbooks with the larger screens. PC makers that meet certain requirements in Microsoft's Market Development Agreement can get a discount of as much as $10 on those prices, the documents show. There is a similar discount for systems sold in emerging markets, although the starting prices are lower, at $26 and $43, respectively."

would prevent

the Launcher from accessing the internet? If so, please temporarily disable

it, and then try clicking the New? button on the Launcher's Config window

again.

OK. Please open the Launcher's Config window. Near the

upper-left corner,

there's a "Distribution site" selector; to what is this set?

If its not set, open it and choose any of the three distribution sites. Can

you now upgrade?

Welcome to DXLab, Steve!

Let's start by updating to the current versions of each DXLab applications

you're using. When you say "Launcher will not update", exactly what happens

when you direct the Launcher to update one of your applications?

Still playing with this today with no luck.  One interesting thing to note.  I do not have Pathfinder installed yet.  When I select the "install" button within Launcher it begins the process and then fails with the error "error while downloading: 404 Not Found".  I can visit the website from launcher with no problems.  Any thoughts??

            No certificate is required to access those two URLs, Steve, so I doubt

that's the problem. Were you able to view those two URLs with Internet

Having a friend help you sounds like a good next step. I'll be around on

Saturday, and would be happy to talk with you or him in real time if needed.

Got it, thanks.

The errorlog shows the Launcher is unable to access either

http://www.dxlabsui te.com/ReleaseIn fo.txt

or

http://www.dxlabsui te.com/FullInfo. txt

Something on your PC is preventing the Launcher from accessing the internet.

Can you visit the above two URLs with Internet Explorer?

I suggest that you temporarily disable your anti-virus, firewall, and other

anti-malware software and then quickly click the Launcher's New? button to

see if it can access the internet; then re-enable your protection. If this

doesn't enable the Launcher to display the available versions, then some

part of the TCP/IP stack on your PC is likely misconfigured or

non-functional.

OK. Then please do the following on the Launcher's Config

1. check the "log debugging info" box

2. click the New? button

3. uncheck the "log debugging info" box

Re: WW 5.9.0 Mouseover macro keys brings WW to front of other windows

Hi Dave,

further testing, it is the mouse-over on the frame that surrounds the macro buttons that triggers bringing the WW window to the front.

73 de Laurie, VK3AMA

Show quoted text

Moving mouse around the screen and if it passes over a WW macro key it will bring the WW main window to the front of all other windows (very annoying when using limited screen space and have multiple window overlaps). If Macro tooltips are turned off for macro buttons (good feature btw) this behaviour still persists.
