<rant> Remedy Maniac <facetious>if that is your name</facetious>, In your first email from this thread, you said "I installed aradmin Version 7.1.00... ...since then any other aradmin tool (6.3 and 6.01) crashes when I try to open a form." That would seem to point to the problem starting as a result of your install. Now you say "The problem has been solved and has gone as it came. I don't know why and I actually do not care about the technical reasons." To your grandma's point: What have you learned? In Nietzsche's Twilight of the Idols, his 7th maxim was "What does not destroy me, makes me stronger." How has this made you stronger? In my humble opinion: ARSList is a group of persons who have a common interest in Remedy. It is a forum for the exchange of (often good) information geared from the newbie to the expert user. Questions range from the basic, to the very advanced and specific questions. Some participants ask questions, some answer them, some do both, and some just read the posts. It has something for a lot of people. In this case, you seem to have broken your system, done no basic troubleshooting to fix it yourself, asked the ARSList how to fix it, received a couple answers on that, possibly acted on those answers, and then left things without any kind of explanation as to what happened, or so much as a thank you for those who tried to or did in fact help you. Here are the problems I see with that: 1 - Other people may have similar problems, and may benefit from knowing what ultimately fixed your issue. You're not required to contribute in some small way, but it would be good karma if you did. 2 - If this did genuinely fix itself on it's own, you've got an intermittent problem. By not bothering to understand what caused it or what fixed it, you don't know that it won't happen again, possibly when you need to use the ARAdmin tool on a production server. As long as you're citing Twilight of the Idols, Nietzsche's third question of conscience was "Are you one who looks on? Or one who lends a hand? Or one who looks away and walks off?" Thanks for letting us know your problem is solved, but without bothering to say how, it would seem you are one who looks away and walks off. Hopefully the next problem you encounter fixes itself, as the help from the contributors of this list may not be so quick coming. </rant> Eric Cleereman
_____ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Remedy Maniac Sent: Tuesday, April 15, 2008 9:59 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: aradmin crashes ** why do you guys get so exited about small things?!? First rule my grandma taught me: "if you don't try you will never learn" Second rule is from Nitzsche. You know the philosopher: "everything that doesn't kill you, makes you stronger" I don't believe the admin tool could break your server. Someone else does have anything to add on this? I think it will appreciated by everyone. For your info Susan: I am using the admin tool and the user tool both in version 6.3 latest patch against a server version 6.00.01 patch 1454. This for at least one year without any issue against my server. You could even run 2 different versions of the admin tool against a lower server. At the same time ;-) Finally, Warren, just to put you at rest: there is no need to hack the Windows registry. The problem has been solved and has gone as it came. I don't know why and I actually do not care about the technical reasons, but as a matter of fact I am able to use again the admin tool version 6 without problem. rm Warren Baltimore wrote: first off. Try to do a full uninstall first. You may need to clean out your registry also. Second. My mother taught me that if you cant say something nice, don't say anything at all. lets keep the snark down.... OK? On 4/14/08, Susan Palmer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Biggest rule I was ever taught, which was reinforced over and over and over again and has been given here over and over and over .... was do NOT use an admin tool that is not the same version as ARS. I guess it really wasn't working fine was it? I think your name is just bringing out some of the worse in me. Maybe being less manic will save yourself time in the future. Maybe I just have more of backlog and can't play around and waste time. I try to learn from the list and all the information that people are gracious enough to spend their time posting here. And as long as I'm ranting, maybe some of you need to look in the documentation before asking questions.

Because of a migration plan, and in order to test, I installed aradmin Version 7.1.00 and is working fine against my 6.001 But since then any other aradmin tool (6.3 and 6.01) crashes when I try to open a form. I can still check/manage licences. Also I can read server info and so on. Everything can be opened (AL, filters, ...) It's only when I try to open a form that I get an error message such as: "The instruction at "0x04a7e833" referenced memory at "0x00000044". The memory could not be "read". Click on OK to terminate the program Click on CANCEL to debug the program" Any idea why that happens and how to get ride of it. Because now that I tested and saw the ARAdmin 7 I'd like to get back to my previous aradmin.
