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 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...? 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? ;) The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.

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. -Mathew ___ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support

- Original Message - From: William_dw -- Sqlcoders [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:support-admin;freenetproject.org]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] 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. -Mathew ___ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
