The timer on form one was continuing to run and turning off form 3.

Support Questions / Show and Hide
« on: October 03, 2019, 06:22:11 PM »
I am running an app with basically three forms. The first form (MainForm) does a line of code
operator_reports.Show()
That is the 3rd form. After .5 seconds it does another line of code.
operator_reports.Hide()
That all works fine, and I can see the form display and then go away. Now I change to the second form (Parameters)
It has a button on it that runs a routine as follows.
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Me.Hide()
operator_reports.Show()
End Sub
When this button is clicked it goes to the operator_reports screen for a second then bombs out back to visual studio. The program is still running but the forms are not displayed? If I remove the Me.Hide() from the above it will go to operator_reports for a second and then right back to the parameter form. Any suggestions?

Support Questions / Pc to Pc communications
« on: August 14, 2019, 10:36:05 AM »
Can I set up AdvancedHMI running on one PC to communicate to another PC running AdvancedHMI via ModbusTCP. I need to transmit a few bytes from one computer to another (but not back). It seems Modbus would be the easiest way to achieve this. Currently I am writing a file over a network but I get a lot of errors because of the conflicts involved with one computer reading while the other is writing. Or do you have a better suggestion?
Thanks,
Dave

I changed the content of the email I changed the subject heading and it still locks me out after 5 emails.
If I send five emails via my laptop from one site to another it will lockout, but change the subject and it will start again. I have tested sending 10 emails via laptop with different subjects and it works.
It locks out because of my computer or the VS software. For example, I can send emails between excite and mail. I can also send emails between Rackspace and gmail. If I send 5 emails between excite and mail, I am now locked out and cannot send between Rackspace and gmail. Is having VS Community the problem?
Thanks,
Dave

Seems no matter what I do it won't work. I have changed the body the header, but after 4 or 5 emails lockup with this error.
8/7/2019 9:20:17 AM - Send Message : This operation cannot be performed while a message is being sent.
8/7/2019 9:20:17 AM - An asynchronous call is already in progress. It must be completed or canceled before you can call this method.
I have gotten out of VS and restarted, rebooted, even sent an email between the servers manually. It will not allow more than 5 via software.

I think I found it! I sent 7 emails from excite to Rackspace all exactly the same and vice versa. Only 4 showed up.
After that I sent another email different header and different body and it went thru. I am going to set MessageHandler1.MessageSubjectPrefex = Now
Hopefully this will change the email enough to allow it to go thru.
Hope I don't have to wait the 4 hours to test.
Thanks again,
Dave

That rings a bell, server.
Message Handler Problem.
I have used 4 different email providers excite, gmail, mail, and Rackspace. I have used two laptops and a tablet. They all send 4 or 5 emails then lock up for four hours.
Lets look at what I am doing. I set MessageHandler1.Value to a 1 the system starts emailing to the person in the emailer list based on what I have in the file Emailer. Currently Emailer looks like this.
1,1,1,1,1,1
2,1,1,1,1,1
3,1,1,1,1,1
Emails look like this
1,ddddd13@excite.com
2,ddddd13@mail.com
After I set MessageHandler1.Value to a 1 I wait 10 seconds and then set it to a 2. At this point I should get an email from alarm 1 then 2 then after a minute from 1 again then 2 after another minute from 1 then 2.
I only get 4 or 5 emails. Then the system locks up for 4 hours. I can reboot change the properties in the message handler to send from a different email provider and change the emails file to send to a different email address. Nothing, its locked up for 4 hours.
Are there any other properties for the MessageHandler that are not on the messageHandler properties window?
Im baffled,
Dave

That's it. Five emails then it locks out until 4 hours have elapsed. I will compile the program and load it on the customers computer and try it.
On the Data Base side, I still don't see anything that looks like a file address. Do you remember if we did that FTP?
Thanks,
Dave

Version 21 is acting the same way now. It worked for a while then one email does not go out, and it does not report an error. The next email errors because the last one is still in the Q. I wonder if this is related to the 5 emails every 4 hours. I will let you know in about 3 hours.
As for the Data Base View/Other Windows/ Data Sources brings me to the DataBase setup for the variables being passed but I don't see anything that looks like a path.
