Sorry for bad English..
When I'm running AveDesk with SysStats 2.5.8 I have a problem with PHD meters.
I'm using WinXP SP2 Russian, so all PHD parameters are in Russian. When I add a desklet (e.g. Aero Laptop) it obviously shows nothing. After correcting meters by Configure option all works perfectly until shutting down AveDesk. On exit (saving?) config file is being corrupted - all the Meters and Overlay sections are cut out.. I tried to rewrite config file manually, inserting corresponding parameters in Meters section (e.g. Counters-0=ProcessorPerformance(Processor_Number_0)Частота процессора) - but when I ran AveDesk with modified configs desklet didn't work. After shutting down AveDesk, I found config corrupted again - but in other way. Now all the meters were present, but the names of parameters were cut out.. (Counters-0= - that's all). The same corruption has taken place when I used original (English) file without any correction.
In SysStats 2.5.3 all works perfectly, no corruptions.. but configs save very slow.
Is the problem in my Windows? May I correct something without installing Euro version?

Avedesk 1.3 closes when adding widescape weather (and for example trying to change the background of the widget through configure...). Never had a problem before, but something broke with sysstats 2.5.8 and avedesk 1.3.
I'm using xp home Dutch with SP2.

When I add widescape weather, it shows up, i put my cursor over it and avedesk closes, completly.

Got a link to widescape weather?

OK where do i start....not shure at first if it was sysats prob or avedesk prob.I downloaded thewer's curved bar and spent hours setting it up works great,
off his help file i went to your site and downloaded laptop weather lovely work by the way .
So im running about 15 shortcuts for the curved bar, avetunes,
and laptop weather everthings running fine.To tell the truth sysstats scares the sh*t out of me evertime i try to tweak a config i end up screwing everthing up
but this time its not my usual ohh feck it ive done it again.i changed the font in laptop weather and realigned it and thats all no problems
Then i downloaded a new avetune skin "imac" (available at deviantart itunes section) i had to restart ave desk to load in the font (same font i had changed laptop weather to)
but ave desk didnt close properly left the icon in the task bar (ghosting) with no control and in processes was still running even thou all desklets had dissapeered so had to end task
on restart shortcuts loaded in curved bar loaded in avetunes loaded in but as laptop weather loaded in i got the lovely window message (avedesk has encountered a problem and needs to close)
i tryed all sorts to solve it but to no avail and ended up having to delette the theme file so ave desk would load (hrs of work gone and now sporting a wicked red line across the forehead from butting the desk)

So with a clean theme i redownloaded syssats and laptop weather and installed them via the aveinst route ( also try via the over write zip route) now avedesk crashes with no message (wonderfull) as soon as i load in laptop weather
ive tryed loading lap top weather into a basic theme with a few short cuts and avetunes (default skin) and again just crashes
i cant understand why laptop weather would work for a day and now crashes all the time what ever i try.
i really love this weather widgit and would hope you could suggest a why to sort it

Running Winpooh's pro service pack2 full updates

peace ARI

edit just been redownloading my fav sysstats config again after total removal of syssats ie everthing related to it in Documents and settings/application data/ avedesk/defaults etc and doing a full fresh install loaded in glossey weather by thewer and i got the same bug as boolathakid has with widescape weather i think you got a prob with 2.5.9 and weather widgets here m8

2nd edit went back to 2.5.8 and it still doing the same thing as above is there some other file i need to remove that avedesk may hold info in that relates to systats ( ps ran a reg cleaner regvac before doing fresh installs)
also weather widgit via avescripter work ok and konfab so the feeds from weather.com are ok
other sysstats configs are ok only weather ones :/
edit 3 nope other configs are doing it now DTP for example try to load a folder via control buttons kills avedesk
hmm just read a few comments about DTP and not many peeps can get it running properly so dont think this is realted to my prob

I have the same problem. I run Windows XP Home Russian and after configuring PDH meters all configs become corrupted. Could anyone suggest what I should do to fix it? Thanks in advance for any help!

Err. Well naturally I don't experience any of these problems on all of my two computers. Of course bith are US/English which might have something to do with it.

One thing you migh try is to install MSXML4 - since that seemed to fix at least one person's problems with an XML-based widget.

I tried to reproduce that person's probs (since it seemed clear-cut) but no, it all just carried on working.

Thank you for your reply, judge!
Unfortunately, installing MSXML 4.0 SP 2 hasn't solved my problem. I use ObjectDock with SysStats 2.5.8 and SysStatsPack1 (for example). I add SysStats to my dock, load system_uptime.ini and go to meters tab to configure CPU. As soon as I hit "Ok" button the config file becomes like this...

[General]

author=Judge

description=Display CPU, RAM and uptime. You may need to configure the CPU and RAM meters for your PC

dversion=1.0

height=128

name=CPU

version=200

width=128

Shortcut=taskmgr

StartIn=

[label]

format=%s

MeterIndex=4

[meter]

Meters-Count=5



[meter-0]

Counters-0=

CPU meter works and shows CPU usage until I restart OD. After that - only Big Blue Question.
In any case I thank you for your help and for your wonderful program . I haven't try previous versions of SysStats (couldn't find them) but I wonder why SysStats 2.5.3 worked perfectly (according to K0styan)...

Thx's Judge this sorted it out all weather widgets working fine now. Thinking back there was a windows update around the time everthing went south. Hmmmmm what a bloody suprize!!!

Support for independant (from the one for Application's field) variable (meter values) on Shortcut Class' Arguments.

I don't know if it's just with me but using %p for getting am/pm string in an overlay isn't working! I've tried several clocks but none succeeded... Is this a bug with current release of SysStats? I'm running AveDesk 2 beta.

Any help, please?

[Kapitan]

IMHO a very nice feature would be an "Array" Meter...
Especially for logs and displays histories...

I'm modding judge Net Monitor beacause it doesn't work
in the latest version (the History Class was deleted?),
i've developed a solution using a number "n" of fixed meters,
where "n" is the hystory lenght...

Thanks and bye!

hello,

i'm new to this and i received this error after installing SysStats2.5.11. i am using rocketdock. it only happens when i right-click anywhere on the dock...

---------------------------
RocketDock: RocketDock.exe - Unable To Locate Component
---------------------------
This application has failed to start because YzDocklet.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

any help? i don't want to re-install since i just spent an hour playing with it and tweaking it to my liking!!

[picld]

Don't believe that Judge is still monitoring the post, but here goes anyway:

using Sysstats 2.5.11 and RKLauncher there appear to be a problem saving a config file whenever local character (ie. east european diactrical mark) is about to be written to the file. the saving process is stoped before that char and the config file becomes corrupted
looks like unicode encoding isn't used ??

another 'feature' seems to be the middle mouse button not working as an event (used in shortcuts section).

Anyhow, it's a brilliant piece of open source software. Hope it makes to release 2.6

cheers

BUG:

SysStats is not working with ObjectDock 1.90 and Vista x64. (At least not for me, and I saw another documented case on these forums).

When I try to Add Docklet > SysStats, I receive "ObjectDock has encountered a problem and needs to close..."

I'm assuming this is a compatibility bug, and ideas?

edit: I'm going to try rocketdock just to see if it's an OD thing only, but I think it may be x64 related?

edit2: Ok, tried rocketdock, added SysStats docklet, rocketdock crashed with windows popup "RocketDock has closed unexpectedly, windows is trying to find a solution to the problem." I cannot load RocketDock again, I get the same window when I try. So this isn't isolated to OD.

Hi there,

I started receiving the same message as 8jebus8. I eventually managed to find that it was a .dll file in the sysstats parent directory. Not the sysstats.dll file, but another for a config ini file which failed to load.

www.customxp.net/forum/showthread.php?t=6526 - I used Babelfish to translate and then dug around the sysstats folder.

Hope it helps.

regards

I'm also using Russian WinXP and think that problem is in unicode, which is not supported by Sysstats. So it doesn't work in Russian Windows XP, unfortunately.
Hope that will be fixed in future versions. for now we have to use other programs(

please add this info on how to install sysstats on vista...because many ppl are deterred from using this program on Vista b/c it crashes docks...but its just an admin issue...

in order to get sysstats to work on Vista all you need to do is...

quit rocketdock

go to C\programfiles\rocketdock\

right click on rocketdock.exe

select properties

select compatibility tab

check run as administrator

apply


now extract sysstats to c/programfiles/rocketdock (it should put all files in necessary folders without you doing anything

start rocketdock

right click a space bar

select add item

select sysstats (blue "?" should appear)

right click "?"

select load

find doclet you want to load

select config. folder

select .ini file


and you should be good to go

also sometimes you may need to configure a docklet to get background to show...

this is done by right clicking icon

selecting configure

opening overlay tab

highlighting background

select configure

I have this problem with Vista Home Premium(тоже русской). Config files aren't being save, so all parameters are in Russian.
