Error in VNCViewer after ver.1.3.6.0

Post by upotrebitel »

Hi!

I use UltraVNC in Single Click mode, starting on client side:

winvnc.exe -sc_prompt -autoreconnect -connect xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.:XXXX -run

On my machine I run:

vncviewer.exe -listen XXXX

But after version 1.3.6.0 when I start "vncviewer.exe", it's open a hundreds windows with error for rejected connection. On version 1.3.6.0 and earlier versions it's work fine. After a lot of experiments I found that removing option "-sc_prompt" from command line of "winvnc.exe" solve the problem and connection is estabilished with new "vncviewer.exe" v.1.3.8.1.

The problem is that I have a lot of machines, that run winvnc with option "-sc_prompt" and I can't use newer viewer. So, can you fix this bug in next version ot UltraVNC, please?

What's the error you get.
Is the password on the server set, or you just run without a ini file.

If the password is the cause.
You can disable by unchecking
Viewer 1.3.8.1
[v] only server with password

Error is: "Your connection has been rejected".

I have "WinVNC.ini" file and file "SecureVNCPlugin64.dsm" in the same folder with "winvnc.exe".

Code: Select all

One of the first things that I do is to uncheck "[ ] only server with password" in "vncviewer.exe". My file "options.vnc" in the same folder with "vncviewer.exe" is:

The result is the same - hundreds windows with error message "Your connection has been rejected" apperas. But when I remove option "-sc_prompt" from "winvnc.exe" command line, it's work fine!

Just tried it with your ini and option.vnc file ... and have the same as you.
Some combination of options seems to trigger it.

Yes, new "winvnc.exe" 1.3.9.0 work fine with "vncviewer.exe" v.1.3.8.1 and my config files. Thank you very much!

But I hope that you can make new version of "vncviewer.exe", that work with all versions of "winvnc.exe". Because I have a lot of clients, that runs older versions of "winvnc.exe" and the error appears when I run on my computer new "vncviewer.exe", after version 1.3.6.0.

Is this an all new "dev build", beyond version 1.3.8.1?

If so, it might be time to create a new area in the "Version-specific help" area.

Thanks.

Code has not yet been added to development, it a separated tree used to merge SC with 1.3.8.1
A lot of refactor...but indeed we already can create a 1.3.9 dev area for it as SC2.0 and 1.3.9 dev have the same source.

Still want to add some buildin ssh or/and a good p2p library, something more general the the repeater.

Done,
Sorry, a new viewer will not fix this server issue.

Is there a 1.3.9 area yet? Not sure if it would be linked from here.
Even if an empty "placeholder", it would indicate where to look in the future.
Thanks.

Found also a way to fix a viewer, so it can run with the old server.
