This has been my experience while trying to create flagged custom content. Search the source, you can see what values it's expecting.

ya i understand that i think it should be 1's or 0's though thats how its set from the peq database. poair is set to 1 on the flag_needed section.. i changed it to not need any flags but before i did i noticed it was crashing the zone so i used that as an example to show the error i was getting with the crash.. its only an example i don't care about he flags really :P

but anyways thats how you force a crash.

I'll look into it and see what i can come up with.
dw20.exe should be the app you're looking for in task manager.

i'm not sure what dwwin.exe is - unless that's drwatson, but i thought that was drwatson.exe

[spider661]

confirmed dwwin.exe is the error message possess.

the possess information

it is related to Dr Watson which is used by the error reporting tool

when i end the prossess the popup goes away and the static zone goes down and reloads as a dynamic.

hmmm ... interesting.
i'll have to add that to the code then.

and you're sure that the 'send' and 'don't send' buttons do NOT have any letters underlined (like shortcut keys? ie the File menu usually has F underlined)

[nosfentora]

Ok, i've added dwwin to the code and checking for 'Close' and 'Don't Send' buttons without underlines (shortcut)

Links: source and win32 binaries

let me know how it works.

[spider661]

actually its (send error report) and (don't send) buttons and yes im sure there are no underlines under them.. ill give it a try.

yep it took a few secs but it closed the error message and my static zone is still running i did not noticed if it opened a new one or not the window was up the whole time but the site says all the zones are loaded. it did open my server folder but i think that is part of the server restart zone code.. not sure but it seems to be working ill let you know if i find more problems
