I disagree - I think we had this discussion before. A user can review the log-file if he/she wishes, but programmatically parsing the log-file is not really sensible, unless we are able to guarantee the text, content and meaning of messages will not change beyond a rigid specification. One way to tackle this might be to add ftp-style codes to error messages, but it still doesn't solve the issue of needing to identify when something has *stopped* working (if it's stopped working unexpectedly it won't be able to log a message saying I've stopped working unexpectedly ...) Probing FNP and fproxy ports is the obvious solution. d ___ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
[freenet-support] ugly bug
hi there, i just found a bug that fucked me up the ass for the last two days. if you enter a non-existent hostname in the allowedHosts field, the freenetnode crashes with a BadHostName exception, but does not indicate this on the system tray (windows). ___ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
Re: [freenet-support] ugly bug
yeah the BadHostName exception is in the logfile (thats how i found out of course..). the web interface does not start up.

See my earlier email. I'm currently modifying the windows tray app to probe the FNP (FreeNet Protocol) and web interface ports to see if the freenet node is actually running. This will visually indicate precisely this sort of problem. As general advice, if you're having problems with freenet and it seems like it isn't working as it should, you can right click the tray and pick View Logfile to see the most recent logs which should include errors and exceptions. Alternatively use the 'most recent exceptions' (I forget its name) in the web interface. Can you describe the 'crash' ? Does the web interface actually stop working? Does the BadHostName exception actually not appear in freenet.log (as shown by View Logfile) ? d ___ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support ___ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
