cronlazersnow.exe won't run

That gives the same symptoms as the previous version.

Opens with error, LRTimeLog.exe reads sensor, dosen’t post messages to cronlazersnow

Dennis

what is the error this time?

Device cannot be opened.

Dennis


are you sure you are using that latest update
what is the modified date/time on the .exe file

I’ve been trying to be careful.

cronlazersnow.exe 13,289,088 11/09/2018 16:47

Dennis

that has the wrong time stamp
try downloading again?

Zip contains the same file, with date time that I just sent you.

I get 11/10/2018 10:47 AM

Just tried the DL on another computer, same file as previous 11/09/2018 16:47

Brian,

I would like to break until tomorrow, I’m preparing a late dinner.

Thanks for your help.

Dennis

OK after testing the latest version it does not recognize the laser or take any readings. It also does not start LRTimelog.

First screenshot is previously working version. version dated 4/6/2018 LRTimelog correctly starts.

Second screenshot is the latest version.

Third screenshot is what is shown after several minutes, but LRTimelog doesn’t start.

I’ve been reading this thread and can only provide my 2 cents worth that my “cronlazersnow” is running perfect and I have no issues. It ran great all through last season and is running great now. I’m very happy with the program and don’t want to download any modified versions as the current version is fine (at least for me). “If it isn’t broke don’t fix it”. Maybe there is some other related file that is missing or corrupt?

Perhaps some of the other 8 or 10 users can comment on their current experiences when the snow arrives at their locations.

Mikeym, try another download
(vers 2.9)

HI Brian
Looks like 2.9 is working correctly. I checked the 2 boxes in WD “Setup/Advanced Misc” “Enable” USB Laser sensor and “use cronlaser.exe”, “Save & Exited” WD and when I restarted it “cronlasersnow” and “LRTimelog” started normally. I’m taking 5 minute readings now and they are correct. Also the logging in “Input Daily weather” “Snow Input” is updating correctly.

Thanks

:smiley:

I still get the ERROR: Device cannot be opened at time/date message. After pressing Start LRTimelog runs and logs measurements.

After about 5 minutes the “restarting LRttimelog.exe” message appeared and LRTimelog started up again.

Dennis


for some reason the program can not connect to your device
which is a hardware issue on hour end
try a pc reboot

Dennis check to see if you have the file “HID.dll” located in your Weather Display folder. If so, copy and save this file to another location in case you need to reinstall it. Then delete this “HID.dll” file from your Weather Display folder and see if the program will run correctly. Just a thought … Worth a try.

Check out this forum link. Maybe helpful, maybe not …

Thanks Jeff, I have confirmed HID.dll has been renamed, now deleted.
