HiNo, I don't think I said this right.If you open omnirig while you monitor the
serial port, the serial port opens, then there's a little activity and then the
port closed. Omnirig remains open.Starting wsjt with omnirig open or closed
produces the same result. Failed to start com server unless you run it as
admin.TomSent from my Galaxy

server
Hi Tom,
that's not how Omni-Rig behaves for me,
if I start it manually the setup dialog stays open until it is
cancelled or closed with the OK button. Starting WSJT-X to
communicate with it doesn't change that. What version of Omni-Rig
are you using?

Hi
Omni-rig
connects just fine to the radio. When you open it there is
some initial comport activity then it closes. All this is
normal.
It
is completely reproducible on my system. There is no issue
with any other application that uses Omni-rig.
On
the groups.io list, there are people that have reported this
in the past.

Hi Tom,
OK, I've not see that behaviour. Are you
able to reproduce it? If yes, then does starting Omni-Rig
manually before starting WSJT-X work correctly?

Hi
Actually no. When you start wsjt it
immediately gives an error saying failed to start omnirig
com server. If you monitor the serial port traffic, nothing
happens at all. No serial communications at all.
If you start wsjt as administrator it
works without an issue. This doesn't happen with any other
software that uses omnirig. It's strange because this always
worked in the past.

Tom,
I am looking into this issue, you don't need to keep repeating
your query.
So far I see one problem with startup when there is a fault
condition
like the rig not being accessible, or if WSJT-X is closed down
before it
has completed all the retries it attempts before reporting an
error
(that takes up to 10 seconds). Is that consistent with what
you are
reporting? If so, then if WSJT-X is left for 20 seconds or so
to do its
own thing does an error get reported?
