Forest 0 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) Somehow my synergy has stopped working, tried resetting the configuration uninstalled and reinstalled synergy checked all IP address is correct checked that my LAN cable is connected /s looked online for solutions to similar error messages (something about hyphens in screen name but removing them did not fix it) None of the above has worked The client no longer shows synergy on start menu and when I try to uninstall synergy it says a file is missing, so I ran repair, and then restarted and now synergy is not installed at all -- so I reinstalled on client; says watchdog status: ok This is what the server is saying: [2017-05-18T08:59:31] INFO: watchdog status: error [2017-05-18T09:00:12] INFO: starting server [2017-05-18T09:00:12] INFO: config file: C:/Users/C3DREM~1/AppData/Local/Temp/qt_temp.Uhg812 [2017-05-18T09:00:12] INFO: log level: INFO [2017-05-18T09:00:12] INFO: service command updated [2017-05-18T09:00:12] INFO: service command updated [2017-05-18T09:00:13] INFO: starting new process [2017-05-18T09:00:13] INFO: activeDesktop:Default [2017-05-18T09:00:13] INFO: starting new process [2017-05-18T09:00:13] INFO: drag and drop enabled [2017-05-18T09:00:13] ERROR: cannot read configuration "C:/Users/C3DREM~1/AppData/Local/Temp/qt_temp.qHp812": read error: line 9: duplicate screen name "Unnamed" synergys.exe: no configuration available [2017-05-18T09:00:14] ERROR: failed to launch, error: process immediately stopped [2017-05-18T09:00:14] INFO: backing off, wait=2s, failures=1 [2017-05-18T09:00:16] INFO: starting new process [2017-05-18T09:00:16] INFO: activeDesktop:Default [2017-05-18T09:00:16] INFO: starting new process [2017-05-18T09:00:16] INFO: drag and drop enabled [2017-05-18T09:00:16] ERROR: cannot read configuration "C:/Users/C3DREM~1/AppData/Local/Temp/qt_temp.qHp812": read error: line 9: duplicate screen name "Unnamed" synergys.exe: no configuration available [2017-05-18T09:00:17] ERROR: failed to launch, error: process immediately stopped [2017-05-18T09:00:17] INFO: backing off, wait=4s, failures=2 [2017-05-18T09:00:21] INFO: starting new process [2017-05-18T09:00:21] INFO: activeDesktop:Default [2017-05-18T09:00:21] INFO: starting new process [2017-05-18T09:00:21] INFO: drag and drop enabled [2017-05-18T09:00:21] ERROR: cannot read configuration "C:/Users/C3DREM~1/AppData/Local/Temp/qt_temp.qHp812": read error: line 9: duplicate screen name "Unnamed" synergys.exe: no configuration available [2017-05-18T09:00:22] ERROR: failed to launch, error: process immediately stopped [2017-05-18T09:00:22] INFO: backing off, wait=6s, failures=3 [2017-05-18T09:00:25] INFO: service command updated Note: read error: line 9: duplicate screen name "Unnamed", this was due to me changing configurations, i tired these as named, when I copy/pasted they happened to not be named Yay... while retracing my steps to write this post, now it works.
