v2.8.2.92 won't start Hello, I downloaded the file twice and installed, each time with same result: Foxhead splash appears momentarily, then disappears, then... nothing. No window appears. I also updated to the latest JRE from Sun, no change. v2.4.2.86 still initializes and runs. Any suggestions? Win XP Pro SP1, AMD Athlon 2 Ghz, 768 MB RAM, etc. etc. no other problems (except with the new Netscape 8.0 but that's another story....) Thanks. |

I'm very interested in the file phex.error.log. It is located in a phex directory inside your user directory. On windows usually something like: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\phex Do you get some output when you start Phex with debug? |

log file Sorry, the error log file is a bit bulky, and sorry if the above debug report is too bulky for the forum.... Ishould send the log file to you in what way...? (Your profile has email blocked) Shall I use private message? HTH |
| |||
Ok that looks like a bug. You are exporting a fixed IP, or? Open the file phex.cfg with a simple editor like Notepad. You also find this file in the folder C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\phex Delete the row starting with: mMyIP= This removes the fixed IP. Save the file, close the editor and start Phex again. It should now work. Do you need the fixed IP? Usually Phex should also work fine without it, and detect the IP once you connect to other hosts. Gregor |

My IP is not fixed but changes only rarely, so I do export it. I started doing that because in the past, it seemed like things worked faster/better that way.... Your suggestion of doing without it has resolved the problem. Seems to be working fine, now, and yes, my IP was immediately detected and displayed on the Gnutell Net tab. Thanks for your help! P.S. I do notice that I have no incoming connections, however. But I this was true previously, as well. Perhaps it is because I do not frequently leave Phex running for long periods? I don't know, but imagine that my IP doesn't get into the caches much, for that reason? |
| |||
Are you sure you can receive incoming connections? Try this test while Phex is running and use the port Phex is configured to use. http://www.shareaza-france.com/test/ |
| |||
Incoming connections After leaving Phex running for several hours, I now have a few incoming connections. I also tried the Shareaza test and TCP was ok (UDP not.) So I guess that means everything is okay...? |
| |||
UDP fails test Um, sorry for my ignorance, but I'm not sure, now about UDP. And I see that Phex DOES use UDP, so... How can I make sure that protocol is functional and forwarded and not blocked somehow, etc. ? |

Hi, I've got a similar problem where Phex won't open. However I don't have a file called phex.cfg in the folder C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\phex Does anyone have an suggestions as to the problem? My error log file is the same as above except for the last bit: java.lang.NullPointerException at phex.connection.NetworkManager.setForcedHostIP(Unk nown Source) at phex.connection.NetworkManager.onPostInitializatio n(Unknown Source) at phex.common.Environment.initializeManagers(Unknown Source) at phex.Main.main(Unknown Source) WAIT ENDED Press any key to continue . . . |
