Failed to create keys and stops

Updated a 2 weeks ago to version 37S b15 for Windows

Now and then (but this morning) have errors and WD stops (can open program but no reaction at save and exit:

Restarting solves the problem but then back again (once in 2-3 days)

What could cause this ? (Nothing on the forum since years ago)

Thanks so far

any error related to failed to create key
is a failure with reading or writing to the registry
in normal operation that should not be happening
you could running a registry cleaner maybe

Hi

Thanks for reply,

As I searched in the internet for this to do - registry cleaner - it’s not recommended for win 7.
Windows has no errors so I leave that possibility

The previous version 37R b 81 had no issues like this, it started with this new vers of WD
I only noticed new moviemaker is not working so I went back to previous version (see error txt)

As I said I did a disk control (and a sfc/ scannow), no problems.
It’s new to me this errors.

Any other suggestions ?


moviemaker error.txt (1.62 KB)

also make sure there is not 2 versions of WD running

if it really was a problem with the new version then you would have thought I would have had reports of the problem before (which I have not)?

also make sure there is not 2 versions of WD running

nope everything checked

if it really was a problem with the new version then you would have thought I would have had reports of the problem before (which I have not)?

did not see anything here on the forum either
updated win7, restarted, started WD (no errors)

now have to wait and see. (remember it was not the first time it happens)

cross my fingers

thanks so far

So ‘only’ new charts and warmest day/coldest night cause most errors

Any idea?

PS: WD still running

if I remember correctly, I think you had access violation errors with build 81 too?

Whole day no problem till 'resetting day/night value’m starts at 18h and 6h

its just a log entry..just some debug info..and not an error I will move it to the debug info, where it belongs

Ok thanx that’s one thing, great !

Less ‘failed to create keys’ for the moment (after did a chkdsk/r again, uninstall/install 37Sb15) that feels good , but:
Now I have a ‘System.SysUtils at time/date’ error for minutes and then it quit (but it happens before and there was a thread about it in juli/2015)
http://discourse.weather-watch.com/t/60295 but that was not the clue for me.

I do not know what happens at that time what can cause this error, there’s a lot of create/uploads at that time :?

WD is still running with approx 230Mb memory stable [-o<

I remember correctly, I think you had access violation errors with build 81 too?

yes you did.

What I did in the meanwhile:

Went back to Win7 firewall
Another AV program (Avast)
several times harddisk investigations (disk is ok)
memory check (2GB and ok)
back to 1037R b 81
Then all runs like a charm since that. What left is '151: HTTP protocol error. 301 Moved Permanently.
Above error or program log occured at :04:05 30/10/16’in program error log: that’s WU moved to https so no problem.

Unfortunately I cannot update to latest version of WD; it runs good till about 02.00am, after that all settings in WD disappear !
Back to the latest reg settings in backup solved that but then at aprox 02.00am same issue.

So I’m happy with 1037R b 81 now as long it has no other problems, but (offtopic:) as Awekas change to another server I cannot update with WD, and that should be a pain.

Ed,

Maybe I’m wrong but try diconnecting a day or so from the internet, turn off all your antivirus & Firewall and see if WD works properly. If so, turn the Firewall on and see. I that works ok, then try the AV program.

Where you are at, I would be to the point of trying anything.

Then all runs like a charm since that. What left is '151: HTTP protocol error. 301 Moved Permanently.
that will be lively that you have setup the mesomap, and have the wrong URL for the wunderground download (it now needs https)

yes I mention that in my post :

Then all runs like a charm since that. What left is '151: HTTP protocol error. 301 Moved Permanently.
…: that’s WU moved to https so no problem.
It’s redirecting by WU so no problem for the moment

I did before, for one night; next day same issue :?

Maybe have to try once again if necessary (WU, Awekas do not redirect) but I don’t got it WD lost his settings in that version

Thanks both for reply !

Just a thought, | when you updated to latest version, did you start WD with Weather Display.exe or weatherdisplay.exe? notice the space

you will need to change any references for wunderground http to https (i.e http://www.wunderground.com to https://www.wunderground.com
e.g in the mesomap setup
as I do not think any redirect is working

Install 37Sb26 yesterday 9.24u looks oke (att 1)

First error was at 15.06h : ERROR: 3: System.SysUtils (???)

Then at 17.06h :

error with do timer 1 via units Failed to create key Image download ani seq Above error or program log occured at :17 06 01 01/11/2016

error with timer42 Failed to create key Web cam capture

error with timer42 Failed to create key Web cam capture
Above error or program log occured at :17 06 03 01/11/2016

etc etc

At 17.58 it all blows up:

error with timer42 Failed to create key Web cam capture Above error or program log occured at :18 56 47 01/11/2016 ERROR: ''1 0'' is not a valid integer value at time/date 18:58 01-11-16 Above error or program log occured at :18:58 01-11-16

WD looks like this: no more settings (see att 2) looks to me like a ‘out of memory’ issue

Logfiles mashed up; this is VPlogfile (see att 3)

#-o

Back to 37Rb81 works good again (corrected WD/VP logfiles first before start)

So what else to do ?

Brian: when I click on http://www.wunderground.com/ above its redirecting to https://www.wunderground.com/
Bashy: with ‘the run WD’ in setup :wink: (WeatherDisplay.exe) thanx


wdisplay_new_version.jpg

wdisplay reg error.jpg

Brian: when I click on http://www.wunderground.com/ above its redirecting to https://www.wunderground.com/
yes, but the redirect will only get followed if the HTTP download for the mesomap is set to follow redirects

Last try

New power adaptor with 4,75A power
4Gb Extra RAM now 8 Gb win 7 CPU 1.8Ghz
updated to Version wdisplay10.37S Build 59

It runs from yesterday 22.50 h till this morning 7.05h
then all my settings disappear

with daily backup reg file set it back all and now Version wdisplay10.37R Build 81 (last good acting version date 27072016)

etc etc

whats that 'to get data for ‘do option’ ?

I have not seen other reports of this problem you are getting so not sure why you are getting it
are you running WD as administrator?
what other programs run at the time this problem occurs?
(i.e they might be interfering with WD)

do you though happen to have WD set to create a animated web cam image (e.g from a http download)
that might be where the problem is

as a test you could try turning that off
