Hey everyone, just checked my email this morning and was told that the new beta agent is available. You guys can also get it at www.netdimes.org/download.html (http://www.netdimes.org/download.html)

it's at the bottom of the page. I was told to tinker with it and see if you can find problems or what not.

is anyone else having a problem registering their account. It seems my computer cannot connect to them, or they are down.

I contacted Eran and there is a problem with the agent. This is why he sent out an email before telling everyone on the site. He is checking it out now and will be getting back to me later.

ok they found the problem and the campus servers are blocked up. Everything should be fine tomorrow at some point. So you guys can try again tomorrow. Eran had me change some things so i could get on and I'll post a screen shot for what to expect.

I've downloaded the new agent.

Should I uninstall the previous agent?

I can't get the new agent to F*@#ING RUN.

Which file are you supposed to use?

I shut off my old client and forgot to turn it back on. Now I've lost out on like 500 measurements....

I've downloaded the new agent onto my dad's system while I'm over at his house. It's doing measurements but it's not showing anything on the graph. I tried tinkering around a bit but I still see nothing.

I'm sad....does it not make the graph until it's done doing the tracerts?

Did you try clicking the "Get Info " button (midway down the left side)?
I think that refreshes the data.

I've installed the new beta agent on my home system. It's doing measurements but there is NO GRAPH. I tried hitting the Get Info button as suggested after about 20-30 measurements....nothing....

I am wondering what is up...maybe the client needs to go through a round of measurements and submit them before I can see any graphs???

In case this is an isolated problem and I can't resolve it, can someone who talks to the project managers please pass this along so they may duplicate the situation if they'd like:

AMD Sempron 2800+
512MB DDR RAM
Windows XP Pro w/ SP 2
D-Link NIC card
Comcast Cable Internet Connection
Ran version .3 beforehand, uninstalled old version, installed new version, registered and can do measurements. No graph when hitting the "GET INFO" button.

It's not an isolated case. A few AMD Users members are having some problems with the new beta client so I suggest that you run the old client.

I'm still doing measurements with the new client, so I don't see any reason to switch back to the old one. This one seems to maybe be doing a few more than I normally do? :)

I'll just keep it going as is for now so long as I'm returning results.

New beta 0.3.9.7


Per eran:


Hi Guys,
We solved some of the bugs in the new beta and created a new version (0.3.9.7) which you can find in www.netdimes.org/download.html.
It is very important that you update to this version as one of the bugs caused the paths to be cut short, thus rendering your measurements worthless.

I get the same stupid error. I really don't know what's going on!

He put a period at the end of the sentence, the URL is at the end of the sentence. Our English teachers probably weren't aware that we'd have this problem. :D

I got the new DL jasong, but it has errors connecting to server. At least I could do measurements before....

Hi guys.
we are in a big effort to solve a bug we had with communication problems. it is the final major issue we have till we come up with version 0.4
The problem is simple. once you download the new agent and start it, a registration screen apperars. when you click "Next" in attempt to register, you get a communication problem and the agent tryes to re-connect every 4-8-16-32 seconds. very annoying - i know.

also - i remind you all that this version is only Beta version - meaning were still testing it. i assure you that version 0.4 will be as bug free as any other self-respecting software.

So - if any of you had this problem, PLEASE EMAIL ME on ohad@eng.tau.ac.il and i will send you a link to the fix - (right now it is a limited version)

I've just downloaded and installed version 0.3.9.7b onto a machine here to see what this project is all about. I like what I see.

So far so good but I am not getting any stats yet. So I guess I'll wait until tomorrow to see if I've gotten this thing setup correctly.

Be afraid people, be very afraid. :sleepy:
