I am struggling with my Windows 10 tablet (used as a control pad running RemoteCC). It keeps crashing the app but I cannot zero in on the issue.
The error is:
PowerBuilder Application Execution Error (R0035)
Application terminated. Error: Error calling external object function recvdata at line 5 in read event of object ole_udp of w_main.
The same RemoteCC window runs just fine on Win 10 on my desktop PC. Any Ideas? Hopefully the Powerbuilder error is specific to the issue.

Resolute,
It appears that the OCX files did not properly register.
Make sure that you launched the Remote CC install using
"Run as administrator". If that doesnt fix it, then try
opening a command prompt using "Run as administrator"
and navigating to the directory where the OCX files are
located. This would be c:\windows\system32 for a 32 bit
system and c:\windows\syswow64 for a 64 bit system.
Once in the proper directory, you should see the OCX
files by doing a DIR cs???ax8.ocx.
For each file in this list, you'll want to do a:
regsvr32 cswskax8.ocx
The cswskax8.ocx is just one of the files that will be
in the list so you'll need to do it for all. Make sure
the you get the DLL register server succeeded message
and this should clear up the issue.
Hope this helps,
Dave.

Tried to register files, no ocx files exist in the system32 folder that
match the names you describe. Reinstalled (ANSI version) under
admin user, rechecked, still no ocx files matching the pattern ( cs???
ax8.ocx).
Running Win10, 32 bit

Resolute,
Try checking for other versions of the OCX files using:
dir cs???ax?.ocx
Since this is the Remote CC which hasnt been recompiled
for awhile it's possible that the OCX files are either
version 6 or 7.
Since you're running 32 bit Windows 10, the directory
should be c:\windows\system32.
Dave.

I searched for all files ending in .ocx on the entire
tablet, nothing that ends in ax?.ocx
Also searched my desktop (where it works fine), nothing
on there either. The closest I can find is cswsk32.ocx
Can you point me to another source of these files so
that I can place them there?

Resolute,
I didnt think the Remote Clients were that old. It took
me a little while but I was able to find the original
installer source on a backup and you are correct. The
file we are looking for is cswsk32.ocx.
Try running the regsvr32 command on this ocx file and it
should solve the error (as long as you get the DLL
register server successful message).
Let me know,
Dave.

I was able to register it, not sure if it was or not to
begin with. It immediately crashed again though.
Interestingly, I remembered that the problem, very
intermittent before, suddenly got much worse somehow,
like every time that I turned on a light it would crash
with that error. I switched the wireless from 5Ghz N
back to the 2.4Ghz G (it was on G before), and things
are much more stable. Maybe something with the N
protocol in the TCP/IP stack? I'm pretty sure that the
ocx file is directly related to the socket interface.

Resolute,
Based upon your last message, the registering of the
control was not your problem. I assumed that the
Remote CC was crashing EVERY time...I didnt realize
that it was originally an intermittent problem.
If that is the case, then the next thing to try is to
right-click the remote CC executable (or the shortcut
you use to launch it) and on the compatibility tab,
set it to run as administrator and set the
compatibility to Windows 7.
You are correct that the cswsk32.ocx is the socket
interface control.
Let me know how that goes.
Dave.

I changed the compat to Win7, let's see how it goes.
The RemoteCC feature of this app is what truly sets it apart from any others, extending the control over wireless to pretty much
anywhere in the most flexible of ways. Any plans to compile it using a newer framework?
BTW, I have tried uploading a screenshot, but I get a server error no matter what size, format, etc. I used different browsers as
well.

Resolute,
Definitely plan to update the Remote CC and Remote DS programs. Im also looking to combine them so you don't need separate apps and update to the latest
frameworks.
Let me know how it goes with the compatibility settings.
The screen upload feature definitely is problematic and seems to only work for some people. What is the server error you get? I just tested using Chrome and it
worked for me.
Dave.

I just gave up. Any device that relies on wireless
just crashes constantly (I tried 3 tablets, 2.4 & 5
Ghz, N,B,etc). Too bad, because the 10" win 10
tablets are perfect control pads.
I resorted to a full screen web interface that
refreshes every 90 seconds, and on any button press.
Not as responsive as the socket based interface, but
the crashing was driving me CRAZY!
As much as I LOVE PH, I am keeping my eyes open for an
alternate automation platform, something designed more
for current hardware ane OS support.

Resolute,
Don't give up just yet. Let me make an updated Remote CC compiled using the latest Powerbuilder development environment and most recent versions of the Winsock controls. It will take me a few days but shouldnt be too difficult. I can then get you a copy to test. It won't have an installer or anything so you'll need to manually register controls but won't be any different from what you've already done.
PowerHome has definitely fallen behind in updates (some of this is also due to the PowerBuilder development environment that SAP has just let sit and languish). The good news though (I hope) is that SAP has licensed future PB development to Appeon with their new updated release (PowerBuilder 2017) due out in the first quarter (Ive already prepaid). Hopefully that will help with some of the compatibility issues we're seeing with newer hardward and OS'es.
I'll let you know when Ive got something ready to test.
Dave.

Thanks for the interest, and hopefully we can get a resolution with the updated controls. I have yet to find anything as versatile and extensible as PH, so I won't likely
be doing anything soon.
Fingers crossed!!

Just wanted to post a followup for anyone monitoring this thread. No lockups or crashes so far using the latest version.
If anyone else is having issues with Remote CC clients, let me know and I'll get the latest version to you.
Dave.

Dave,
Mine is working fine, but I am curious, what's
new/changed? 
Oh, BTW, I've worked out a lame debug screen using the
CC that shows your choice of globals and the local vars,
if anyone's interested.

gg,
Nothing much really changed (that I can remember) other than compiling with the latest version of PowerBuilder and using the latest Catalyst version 8 Winsock
control.
The version that is included with PowerHome 2.1.5d under c:\powerhome\phutils\phremotecc would be real close to what I just recompiled.
I think the main issue that Resolute was having is that he was using a very old version of the Remote CC (probably from the standalone remoteclients install)
from either 2006 or 2008.
I'd definitely be interested in seeing what you've done in the CC for globals and locals.
Dave.

gg,
Yes I did  . Thank you. I havent had a chance to load it up, but hope to do so this weekend. Once I do, I'll try to export as scripts and post on the forum so others will be able to take advantage of it.
Will keep you posted.
Dave.
