Ok another update

* It should only broadcast once.
* It should actually hide itself when you minimize it. clicking on the icon in the tray will unhide it.
* version number displayed in the titlebar
* i re-did the way rule_sets, rule_values and variables are edited

let me know if there are any problems!

make sure you edit the options to log into your mysql database.
If you want to compile the source, you'll need MySQL Connector.Net 5.1.6

im not seeing anything in the server rules tab and only seeing 2 variables in the server variables tab..

just thought you would like to know.. any more info you need let me know.

Hmmm.... try re-downloading it and running the new version (1.0.0.3)
also check that you have info in your rule_sets, rule_values and variables tables.

nope got new version still same thing.. does it matter that i use peq db? ill look at the code later today see if i dont see whats up. but im sure you will find the problem.. and yes the tables have info in them

btw dont think i told you yet this is a really nice program you have done a great job thus far.

Thanks!

I'm using the peq db too - but if i'm not mistaken peq and angelox's are the same format (ie table structure is the same), just differ on content.

that's strange. i've been running it on mine and it runs and loads fine.
I've been running it on the same machine that my eq server is running on and sql server is on.

are you using 'root' in the settings to log into the mysql server?

Added an option to load the old log at startup

added some code to give feedback when there's connection/db errors that should help you trace the problem.

Also, changing settings when the program is running will take effect immediately.

yep using it on the same server as my server/db
it is connecting becuase it sees 2 peases of info from the vers table but nothing else.

i do not use root as the user for security but i am useing a valid account that has read write access..

ill give the new ver a try when the server resets next.

nope still only reading 2 server variables and no server rules.

and i skimmed the code and did not see nothing wrong with the database stuff. it did not give any connection errors in the log.

ill give it a better look when i get some time.

Just for shins & grins - try using root and see what happens. there may be some permission problems - i developed this using root access when i created the connection string

Ok, added code to make any db errors extremely verbose, and write those errors to the log (along with popup msg's)

Fixed a problem where the displayed log was getting cleared on load, rather than displayed if the 'Load old log' option was checked.

Spider661, any luck? Try this version (1.0.0.6), and pm me the log (make sure you edit out your passwords =) ) Maybe I can make heads or tails of it.

Update:

* Added a 'broadcast now' button to allow custom msg's to be broadcast at any time.
* Last broadcast message will be saved for when the program is restarted.
* All msgs's broadcast are written to the log
* Any and all error messages should be written to the log.

still no go on them tables i tryed root and the root password but says user cant connect i think its because i have it set to local host only and its connecting useing my local ip and not localhost. not sure but anyways its seems to not be able to access the account even if i am loaded on the same computer. with my normal user name it connects and reads 2 server variables only.. and only thing in the log file is this

i changed root so that it can be accessed from other then localhost and it connected fine but still same thing useing root user

log

Hmm, I'd bet there are some permissions set on mysql that's causing problems, but if it loads 1 or 2 items from the db, then it should be working....
Do you have a vb.net 2005 compiler?

yes i have vs2005
