I think a version for the Mark II Colossus rebuild (at the National Museum of Computing, Bletchley Park) should be your immediate priority . . .

Well I just installed the 50.1 version on my W2K system and will wait and see. For now I've turned off monitoring it for failure so hopefully if it does barf I will see what the error was. Mine is an HG622 in case that matters.

Still running for me 

[broadstairs]

Mine is still going as well....

Thank you both.

[broadstairs]

Mine is till going stong this morning so I would suggest whatever you changed fixed it.

Thanks Stuart. The code in question is the section which extracts the modem/router firmware version from the output of the command <command prefix> info --version. It appears that, occasionally, this command fails to produce a proper output, and it was the code which parses this output which tried to read data that wasn't there. That error is now trapped.

I have the Windows version of DSLstats and like others I today I have had several instances of the "List index (1) Out of Bounds" error. Also just had the Windows pop-up message tell me "dslstats has stopped working".

As you are invesgtigating this already I will be interested to see what the issue may be.

Yes, it's been under investigation for a few days. I have a slightly modified version 4.50.1 as described here: http://forum.kitz.co.uk/index.php?topic=13708.msg258516#msg258516 which hopefully corrects the issue.

[OldTimer]

Many thanks for the quick reply. I have installed the updated version.

When the program is sampling, would you expect to see a message that reads "no data returned in latest sample"? That only appeared briefly, but seems to be working normally again.

For me v4.50 on windows was running for many hours without any errors so far.

What do you think about adding a counter which shows the amount of resyncs, maybe on the stats tab?

If it only appears once (or very sporadically) it has no significance. It just means what it says, namely that for some unknown reason the modem/router didn't return the expected data in that sample. You'll commonly see it in the first sample after an unexpected re-sync, for example, or it may be that the CPU in the modem/router is fully loaded with other processing tasks at the time.

Hi Eric was wondering why the User Account Control does not popup when running DSLstats not that I am complaining as UAC is a pain in the backside and whish all apps were UAC quiet like yours and the same for HG612_Modem_stats.

[roseway]

I'm afraid I hadn't even heard of User Account Control until you mentioned it. DSLstats and HG612_Modem_Stats don't touch the Registry, so perhaps it's something to do with that.

Code: [Select]

User Account Control (UAC) is a feature in Windows that can help you stay in control of your computer by informing you when a program makes a change that requires administrator-level permission. UAC works by adjusting the permission level of your user account. If you’re doing tasks that can be done as a standard user, such as reading e‑mail, listening to music, or creating documents, you have the permissions of a standard user—even if you’re logged on as an administrator....used with program installation, changing windows firewall settings and such like.
