I've compiled my viewer and InstantSupport.exe and am running the viewer, support exe and repeater on three different PCs on my LAN. I run my viewer and it connects to the repeater (Repeater xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx connection established!)
The repeater log shows:
accept() connection
Writing protocol version erro
InstantSupport.exe connects to my repeater and give me the six digit number. I type the six digit number in my viewer. It tries to connect and I see this window:
The repeater log shows:
Viewer added to list 287650
ID added 287650
After several minutes of waiting, I get this dialog:
The repeater log shows:
recv -1
Remove viewer 287650 0
Viewer removed from list 287650
No software firewall. I can run the repeater from my laptop and it worked fine, but I need it to work from the PC. Any ideas on what any of these error codes/messages mean? I have no idea how to track down what is different from my laptop to PC.
The repeater will drop the viewer connection after a timeout period if it doesn't have a server ID to match it with which will cause the error you saw.
Please post full logs of your repeater as it appears that the server was never making a connection to the server.
