ronski mine runs but this error poped up on launch, and whilst I was prepping the screenshot the same window popped up a 2nd time.

win 7 64bit.

its popping up at intervals, possibly once a minute, will try to count. yes seems to be about once a minute.

also for 21 days 23 hours uptime it reports I got 3 CRC and 0 HEC, I wish my connection really was that good heh, so I think the error may be related to the error stats.

also not related to this little update but I have tons of these in the folder.

Thanks Kitz, it seems that your'e still on the old firmware, and your xlog is laid out slightly differently to mine, and when viewed in Notepad++ there are a lot more blank lines.


The blank lines are probably from an older version of HG612_stats.exe.

The blank lines aren't visible when using Windows Notepad, but are visible via TextPad & as you say, Notepad++

The latest versions create xlogfile.txt & Plink logs without the blank lines, regardless of how they are viewed.

so if you release your new tools I guess ronski has nothing to fix?

also are your new tools still going to work on the older firmware?

Correct (as long as people start to use them).
They are just undergoing a bit more testing before I upload them, firstly in this forum, then followed by a general release after RONSKI has included his tested Settings Editor updates.

That's the intention, but RONSKI might have to adapt his program to cope with both formats of xlogfile.txt & Plink logs etc for users who choose to block firmware updates.

They did still work with original firmwares, but my recent 'fiddling' to make them work reliably with updated firmwares MAY just have introduced some incompatibility.

Maybe you could test the programs with your non-updated firmware when I intend to upload the latest pre-release test versions in a day or so?

ONGOING-ISRUNNING-002600-122.TXT

If you have a lot of isrunning files, then you have a problem with HG612_Stats not completing properly. A isrunning file is created with each run of HG612_stats.exe, and if it completes successfully then it is deleted.

Are they all recent files, or just sporadic over a long period of time?

If they are all recent then you should be looking in the error log to see what's going on at the time they were created.

No I dont have all the additional ongoing-isrunning text files.  I used to get them in Jul/Aug  before BE made some tweaks to HG612 stats in about Sept time.   Ive since cleared all the surplus out and dont get them anymore. As far as Im concerned issue that has been fixed for me.

>> The blank lines aren't visible when using Windows Notepad, but are visible via TextPad & as you say, Notepad++

I too noticed all the surplus spacing when I viewed xlog in notepad++ earlier. 
Hadnt looked at it in anything else as notepad++ is my default editor.

I would guess that notepad only recognises CRLF as a line ending, but the newer text editors recognise CR or LF on its own as well.

That's about the gist of it (sort of).

The data is now written to the logs in binary format which ensures compatibility with most/all text editors/word processors.

Eh? What's that?  :o  Has the Featherless Eagle finally seen the light?  :swoon:

The harvesting code would be so much better without the need to write the log file in ASCII format!

I could remove so much convoluted 'fiddle-faddling' from the original code by making the change so that the structures are written to the log file.  :angel:

I've updated the editor and attached it to the first post in this thread, should hopefully fix the problems that kitz & Chrysalis were seeing.

burakkucat, I'm not quite sure what BE means by binary format, but the logs are in plain text format.

I can fprintf() the data to xlogfile & Plink logs which creates blank lines, depending on the editor being used to view the data or open the logs in binary format & fwrite() the reformatted text data row by row for each row of data (or string by string).

The current method is the second one, which doesn't cause blank lines to be displayed unless they are intentionally blank.

fprintf() is used to write the data to modem_stats.log as plain old ASCII text.

NO!  :lol:

I could easily re-enable data record storage, but to maintain compatibility with older data logs & as no real progress was made regarding a front end to manipulate the data (MySQL etc?), it will remain as plain old text format (for the time being).

I agree, but our previous experiments with time consumingly converting the data from records to text and/or when plotting data from older logs along with the extra coding that the graphing programs might need has placed that on the back burner - for now.  :angel:
