cubernaut 0 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I get this error when I try to run Synergy.exe: "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information." I get the error with Synergy versions 1.8.4, 1.8.7 and 1.8.8. Has anybody else encountered this problem? Is there a known solution? Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Have you tried rebooting your machine already? Link to post Share on other sites

Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Can you try uninstalling it then reboot machine. Re-install after the reboot. Link to post Share on other sites
cubernaut 0 Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 I did, but I still get the same error message. Link to post Share on other sites

Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Can you try v1.9.0 from this Synergy v1.9.0 Release Candidate thread? Link to post Share on other sites
cubernaut 0 Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 I installed v1.9.0-rc3. The error does not occur anymore, but the main window takes about 40 seconds to appear. The client does not connect to the server (Connection was refused). Server log: [2017-05-22T22:20:01] INFO: connecting to service...

Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Set it up following Getting started with Synergy. Link to post Share on other sites
cubernaut 0 Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 I followed the instructions with no success. I installed 1.9.0 on the client (Win7 64bit) as well, but it has 50% CPU usage, so that won't work for me. Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Can you post a screenshot of both machine's Synergy interface? Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 How about the client? Link to post Share on other sites
cubernaut 0 Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 I'm working on it, it is very unstable... Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 So it successfully connected now, right? Can you set the logging level back to Info? This will lessen the CPU usage. Link to post Share on other sites
cubernaut 0 Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 Are you familiar with the interface? I suppose it states that it connected to the SERVICE, not to the SERVER... The clients log level is set to info, but that has no effect on the CPU usasge. 50% CPU usage is an indicator for an error and should not result from a high logging level.

cubernaut 0 Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 Due to the installation of 1.9.0 on the client I now have a new problem. The synergy service can't be stopped and is taking all the CPU time of one processor. I can't even uninstall this version, because the uninstall routine is unable to stop the service and fails.

Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Have you disconnected before uninstalling? Link to post Share on other sites
cubernaut 0 Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 The service can NOT be stopped, how should I disconnect? What do you mean? How should that help? Link to post Share on other sites
cubernaut 0 Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 I was able to uninstall the hanging 1.9.0 version on the client by manually disabling the service and rebooting. That way the service was not started and the uninstall routine worked... To sum up the situation: 1.9.0 is running with long delays on the Win 10 server. 1.8.8 is running on the Win 7 client. A connection cannot be established.

Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Can you try pinging the client machine from the server machine (and vice versa) ? Link to post Share on other sites
cubernaut 0 Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 Yes, that works. Synergy has worked in the exact same setup for years, only since I updated to 1.8.8 the problem arose. Link to post Share on other sites
