Re: [freenet-support] Freenet newer than 5.0.7

From: Catalin [EMAIL PROTECTED]


 When will the next stable version of freenet(5.0.8 or 5.1.0) become
 available for download (the widnows version)?
 Until then will there be available a complete 5.0.7 (or newer) windows
 version? (like the 5.0.6-1 complete version- without webinstall). I am
 asking this because like I said before the webinstaller doesn't work for
me.

Sorry about that -  I had forgotten to upload it along with the 0.5.0.7
webinstaller. The full install should be up and accessible similar to the
webinstaller now.

I still haven't had any ideas on why the webinstall doesn't work for you -
it seems a very odd problem. More that your connection to sf.net dies,
rather than an actual error in the installer.

 It really irritating to keep being asked if I really want to download
 that mp3.

You can add it yourself you know. :)

I don't know the real reason, but if someone is using wmp (windows media
player) to play their audio it will guess the mimetype, and some media types
supported by wmp will automatically open up http sessions, breaking
anonymity.

 Dear friends,
 
 Sorry by my english.
 I can't continue the instalation, please help me. Tanks.

Do you have java installed? (A Microsoft one will not work with freenet)
If not, java.sun.com should have a jvm for download on their site.

Re: [freenet-support] windows 0.5.0.4 monolithic installer updated

2002-11-04 Thread Mathew Ryden
- Original Message -
From: Vitenka - Zen [EMAIL PROTECTED]


 Nodeconfig refuses point blank to run on my machine as of main build 529.

 * make it so that nodeconf can change every option

 Secret options are bad :)  I still seem to have an un-needed 'temporary
directory' setting - which it warns me about on every
 startup.

Can you expound on this one?

 * have nodeconf just edit the config in place (effectively, have it treat
 %'s and not have to be manually rewritten)

 It isn't doing this already?

Nope. The lifecycle of the options is as follows: defaults set in program;
options in config file read overwriting defaults; changes made; new file
written in big slew of printfs.

 * fix import/export ref on bunny

 Can we have an export all known references option?  At least until the
routing table stops getting eaten by the datastore
 bugs :)

 * popup window when # of threads is changed to equal 0

 Is that a bad option to set then?

Telling fred it can spawn as many threads as it wants? Yes.

 * make windows installer using windows installer.

 Strongly disagree - the nullsoft installer is a fine and accepted piece of
work, whereas the default windows installer is a
 horrible piece of junk.  Unless you are having some major problems with
the nullsoft explorer, what is the incentive to
 change?  If you are worried about transparence then most people would
probably be happy with a zip file and a 'run this
 first' file.

Zip files don't work. Too many users can't figure out how they work (yes,
we've had complaints on that before). This is just a longterm goal. Not
having to have an adhoc collection o things that can go wrong would be nice.

 * allow selection of java's if don't want first one found out of the
   registry

 Please, yes please.  Give us a list of all of them and let us choose.
Would it be possible to list what version each java
 is, since it's not always obvious from the directory.

 * have nodeconfig popup a window when using an invalid ip address
 (192.168.*.*, 10.*.*.*, phlemball.aol)

 Possibly unrelated, but what is the option to allow arbitary lients to
connect on the client port or the web port - or is
 this incredibly unsafe?

In the windows client, the option is on the advanced page in the FCP access
box. For mainport, there is no option in the config program yet.

 * rewrite in c++ so I don't have to deal with java sh*t.
 * automatically register dyndns if they don't have it already (until
arks)
 (freenetnode.com would probably be setup fairly easily)

 A dyndns for frenetnode.com would be kinda nice to have built in.  Make
sure the explanation of what this is, is
 comprehensible to the average user :)

 Hmm.  If we have dyndns would this make routing via dynamic IP a more
sensible thing?  In which case, might renaming
 transient mode to 'client only' or something similar help?

?

 * add messagebox before stopping the node when updating snapshot
 * add update option on systray app

 How often are updates checked for?  And is it done just by getting a
freenet message or do we poll or is it via some out of
 band method?

Fproxy will tell you when higher build numbers are available.

 * allow for negative # of threads (add checkbox. Give big warning when
set
 since FastThreadFactory = evil)

 Uh - negative threads?  What would that be?

If the value of maxThreads is negative, a different thread factory is used
which doesn't remove threads ever, which may potentially speed things up but
other than that is similar to maxThreads = 0

 * fix the file naming of freenet-webinstall.exe to
 freenet-webinstall-{$VER}.exe

 Uh - surely the webinstaller installs whatever the latest version of
freenet there is?

Yes. The problem is that files in the webinstaller change. There needs to be
atleast some versioning of that, otherwise people are blindly downloading

 As to using the monolithic installer:  A couple of times downloading via
the normal update or web update I got an out of date
 version of the software - so I dropped back to the monolithic one, which
worked once I altered the version number in the
 url...

Is there transparent http caching by your ISP, becuase I download the new
jars VIA the update mechanism here myself.

 Right, what else would I request?   Some more sensible defaults would be
good - perhaps default choke of bandwidth to the
 kinds of levels that make sense on a cable / DSL connection.

The problem with that is that sane settings vary widely. For example, at
home I can upload at about 3 times what is safe for me to upload here, due
to additional congestion, but I can download about twice as fast here as at
home.

 Also, on windows, offerring an option to set the registry keys that frost
advises (that set your socket limits up for server
 working) might be a good idea.

what?

[freenet-support] windows 0.5.0.4 monolithic installer updated

2002-10-31 Thread Mathew Ryden
I've uploaded the monolithic installer incase anyone actually uses that
horrific thing (actually, an amazingly large amount of the freenet installs
have been the monolithic installer)

Anyways, the new installer is up, with no changes over the last monolithic
installer (0.5.0.4-2).
Hmm - I don't think I ever officially said what was changed in 0.5.0.4-2
over 0.5.0.4-1. The config program now has localhost and mp3-delete
protection built in. Both systems should be greatly improved, right now both
protections take effect when the OK button is clicked to write out the
config. Quick and dirty? Yes. Works? Also yes.


I'm looking at my freenet installer todo list and trying to prioritize it to
get something effective done this weekend (actually, probably only 8 hours
on friday). Is there anything on this list people would like to expound on?
Anything you think I need to do ASAP (is now a good time to remind everyone
that the nodeconfig program is just about the first non-console program I've
ever touched? :)

Anyways - My list of things to do (similar to this email, I often don't make
any sense):

* make it so that nodeconf can change every option

* have nodeconf just edit the config in place (effectively, have it treat
%'s and not have to be manually rewritten)

* build in search for fproxy.*, nodeinfo.*, and nodestatus.* so that we can
save those options if any

* fix import/export ref on bunny

* popup window when # of threads is changed to equal 0

* make windows installer using windows installer.

* have pathfind buttons on nodeconfig/normal work

* debug proxies for blocked port 80 on install (it has code to detect them!)

* create directories inside of directories  in createthread.c (freenet.exe)

* add 2k/xp directory security preferences on temp directory

* Popup window when nodeconfig is trying to get references

* find out why new installs always use same port (which changes)

* allow selection of java's if don't want first one found out of the
registry

* get rid of having to manually modify 7 different strings to change the
release directories  start menu folder

* have nodeconfig popup a window when using an invalid ip address
(192.168.*.*, 10.*.*.*, phlemball.aol)

* rewrite in c++ so I don't have to deal with java sh*t.

* automatically register dyndns if they don't have it already (until arks)
(freenetnode.com would probably be setup fairly easily)

* add messagebox before stopping the node when updating snapshot

* add update option on systray app

* allow for negative # of threads (add checkbox. Give big warning when set
since FastThreadFactory = evil)

* fix the file naming of freenet-webinstall.exe to
freenet-webinstall-{$VER}.exe

* do documentation changes on freenetproject.org faq and readme to make sure
everything makes sense (unlike this todo item)

* Anything else?

 I think the 'do you want to keep your freenet.ini option is working

I'll look into if it was doing anything odd. Partial installs may make

 stable release in far too long, is ready. Linux users may download it
 from
 http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/freenet/freenet-0.5rc1.tgz?download
 Windows users should download the auto-installer from
 http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/freenet-webinstall.exe

Now http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/freenet-0.5rc2.exe is also available
as a full installer (ie: with jar's attached)
Also there were minor modifications to the defualt node configuration
options to match those from fred. No other changes. The webinstaller has
also been updated to the same.

Matthew - could you update the sourceforge.net download?

 We found some very serious but delayed impact bugs in 0.5rc1, we had to
 fix them, this is the result. It has some default parameter tweaks too.
 The stable branch has been refrozen. This build will become mandatory due
 to these changes, very soon. Final release has been delayed to Wednesday,
 if we don't find any more critical bugs. Please upgrade.

  hello everybody
 
  after d/ling the new windows installer (what about prompting the
installer's version on startup?! i was confused if the version i d/led was
the most recent
 You should upgrade to version 520, the current snapshot, either by

 reinstalling through the webinstaller or through the rabbit, if it
 works.

 aye. does the windows installer reveal its own version number? yes or no?
if no, why not? :D

No. Why you may ask? Becuase afaict, there is no way of doing it using NSIS.
Lately everything is just being called pre5 until something else comes
around

  one) and downloading freenet.jar and -ext.jar separately (my isp is
just crap so i could only run the installer and see my connection breaking
at 90%
 ..GRR,
  d/ling these two files separately because of d/lresuming), i merged a
previous installation and the fresh installation (missing the jar's and some
config),
  adapted FLaunch.ini to point to the correct java paths and - viola -
using the bunny freenet started alright ;) congratulations to this!
  the downside is, that the configurator (which starts fine, too) wants
me to enter a value between 1 and 1024 for the max threads field. i
thougt, this can
 be
  zero, too, so there is no thread count limit set?

 Hmm. Possibly. Or it can be negative. But really, leave it at 120 unless
 you know what you are doing (it impacts other parameters).

 hm. alright.
 is a negative value == 0?
 what about a range of 0 = x = 1024 and when set to 0 display an annoying
popup or render some text into the config window saying no thread limit
set.
 this may have an impact on other parameters...?

I enabled the 0 setting without a warning. I dare anyone to try it.

  another thing, but i'm not sure if this is just because of my chaotic
installation:
  FProxy/Basic Settings/FProxy active is NOT enabled in the configurator,
but fproxy is active. either the setting of the checkbox is not processed or
the
  configurator does not parse the .ini file correctly
 
  then i pressed cancel to discard my settings - but, the windows stays
open, giving me interresting gfx-garbage: regardless which tab i click on,
the last
  page is
  always displayed, overwriting the page i wanted to see; giving me the
fuzzy feellig of oh-oh, dunno work, windows will break, everything is lost
 :D
  neither cancel, ok nor cliocking at the window-close-icon-'X' are
closing the window now, please have a look at this. i had to kill the app
via crtl+alt+del
 and
  it did not respond, so windows killed it cold
 
  last but not least: what about the configurator HELP? is it there? is
ist up to date? seems like a topic for the release of 0.5

 silence? ;)

heh - sorry. Configurator Help. It has that? I'm sure there's some help in
there somewhere but I a) am horrible at writing documentation and b) have no
idea how to edit the help files.
If someone wants to do it, I can give them a lot of information on how the
current configuration works, but it's not high on my list of priorities for
the next few days before the 0.5 release.

 I'm sure everyone's getting sick of me telling them this, but there is a
new
 windows installer up.
 I changed the noderef file to the one on sourceforge, as well as tried to
 update the updater. I still can't get it to work here, but I have no way
of
 telling what is causing that - be it my internet connection or a but in
the
 updater (i'm leaning towards the latter)

 Could someone else test the updater to see if it works properly?

I've fixed it on my computer - does the updater still work for everyone?

 New in this release is a bug which causes the node's default port to be
set
 to 8812. I'm pretty sure where it is occuring but most likely won't be
able
 to fix it until ~3 hours from now.

Are other people even getting this?

 Anyone who finds a new bug in the windows installer or brings my attention

  another thing, but i'm not sure if this is just because of my
  chaotic installation:
  FProxy/Basic Settings/FProxy active is NOT enabled in the
  configurator, but fproxy is active. either the setting of the
  checkbox is not processed or the
  configurator does not parse the .ini file correctly

 I've noticed this too on a fresh install to a virgin machine, but as you
say
 fProxy still works whether the checkbox is checked or not.

Known issue. The checkbox currently looks for a fproxy or a nodeinfo on the
services line. Since neither of those actaully will ever be on the services
line with the new mainport, i'm trying to stick them together. I will
hopefully come up with a way of seperating the two, but at this time there
isn't a clean way of telling the node I know I'm telling you to create this
class, but don't really do it.

I just updated the webinstaller again. The checkboxes in question are
disabled and there are quite a few more steps being taken in the installer
to make the install process more smooth.

  then i pressed cancel to discard my settings - but, the windows
  stays open, giving me interresting gfx-garbage: regardless which
  tab i click on, the last
  page is
  always displayed, overwriting the page i wanted to see; giving me
  the fuzzy feellig of oh-oh, dunno work, windows will break,
  everything is lost  :D

Hmm. Haven't seen that one yet. :)

 Cancel works fine for me, clicking OK tries to pop up a box telling me my
 changes require a node restart,
 but the focus isn't on the popup window and so I assumed my settings had
 automatically taken effect.
 Any chance of focusing  making that dialog a system-modal oh windows
 configurator people?

Yeah, it's on the big-list-o-things to fix. I'll see how soon I can get it
done.

[freenet-support] Yet another freenet windows release

2002-10-20 Thread Mathew Ryden
Okay - let's see if this has gotten any better. I think the weird
flaunch.ini bugs are fixed so the node might almost work.

Please, anyone who I haven't turned off of freenet entirely, test the again
updated installer at
http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/freenet-webinstall.exe .

Also, send any bug reports please :)

 the link on the main page still points to an installer date oct-17.
please
 update the /snapshots directory too

It is--the news page isn't updated for every iteration of the windows
installer. Just download it again and it should work.

[freenet-support] Yet another windows release

2002-10-19 Thread Mathew Ryden
Here's another windows-webinstall.exe release. This should hopefully fix the
javafind found java, then install told me it still couldn't find java
problems. Also some changes on temporary directory settings to allow one
setting for them all.

Everyone, please download and test it (save your freenet.ini first if you
already have a permanent node setup as I don't want to hurt the network).
After the install runs, DO NOT run freenet, then copy over the saved
freenet.ini, then run NodeConfig again, then save via NodeConfig and start
the node.

Hopefully there should be no issues in the config file.

(As usual, the release is at
http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/freenet-webinstall.exe )

  it looks like these installers are not installing UpdateSnapshot.exe
  either.

 Ah, so are people actually using that? I found it quite handy (wrote it
 basically for myself) but never got any feedback for that.

I'm not sure if running it will cause any problems with a running node - it
deletes the $TEMP/freenet directory which happens to now be the default for
where fproxy's and FEC put their temporary files.

Until I look more into it (timing, etc) I would suggest you stop the node,
run the update, and then restart rather than letting update restart the node
for you.

 Mathew: the source for that little .exe is in wininstal/update and the
 created binary needs to be put somewhere where it is included in the
 installer (I put it in wininstall/freenet/tools)

I've built it an included it in the two new builds:
http://hawk.freenetproject.org/~oierw/freenet-0.5_pre1_0.5.exe and
http://hawk.freenetproject.org/~oierw/freenet-0.5_pre1_0.4.exe

again, 0.5 is the msvc7 build (There are no other changes than the inclusion
of the UpdateSnapshot.exe), and 0.4 is the msvc6 build.

 Sebastian

Any new problems, email either myself or the support list if you are on it
and I'll add it to the ever growing list of things we want to fix with the
installer. Enjoy.

 Can people test the pre1_0.3 build and see if they have any new issues
which
 haven't already been brought up? (if you get the unable to find mfc70,
 download the above file).
 
 
 i just tried out the freenet-0.5_pre1_0.3.exe  ... it says i am missing
 msvcr70.dll

I hate microsoft, really i do.
I'm adding http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/msvcr70.zip . same directions
with this as mfc70.zip

 Any help would be much appreciated.
