|
Does it use ultrapeers?:confused: |
download-list hi my phex is loosing his downloadlist when shuttting down. is this normal for the 0.7.3?? jre1.3,os2. 072 didnt have this problem. i tried to delete all other phex-files,restarted and tested some times with or without 4os2, but it didnt change. :-( any ideas??? ingmar. |
Host connections The first time using 073 I had a few connections, but after about 20 min. all connections were lost. All outgoing connection attempts had as disconnect message "Error. Packet too big. Disconnecting the remote host." Now Phex just can't connect anymore. I tried to use 072 again but this version is now also affected, same behaviour as 073 I also notice the same behaviour as described by unregistred, The Phex.hosts file is empty after a restart |
For me it's the same since 070. Too little connections and only first hour (+-). After that no outgoing and almost no ingoing (1 per hour for cca 1 min.) But I don't see any error messages, just red connecting lines forever... Javier |
Connections Hello RaaF, javier, What OS do you use? Maybe you have trouble with your internet connection. I had no trouble to get as much connections as I want with phex 0.7.3 (current uptime 9h15m). Do you use a proxy? Helge |
Hi. No proxy, no troubles with internet connection. I didn't try any other gnutella client but Kazaa works fine. But I don't like Kazaa. Actually, I've had "this small number of connections" problem since 0.6.3. Then I got back to 0.6.2 but no change and since then its still bad. I think it all started when Morpheus (?) switched to Gnucleus but I'm not sure. J. |
Hi javier__d, hmm, two more questions: Are you able to connect to the Auto Connect Hosts? (If the Host Catcher is empty these hosts are tried.) Does your IP address appears correctly under My Address? Helge |
Two more answers: Yes and yes. Javier |
Hi Helge, I have no further internet problems. I use Gnucleus and Shareaza without problems, I do use ZoneAlarm, and I give Phex access. Never had problems until 073, But I noticed slow connecting, and problems keeping connections up since 070 ( not as bad as Javier describes, but we do seem to have similar problems :( ) I can connect to the auto hosts but I get "the packet to big" error And my ip appears correctly. Seems Gregor took a vacation at the right time :D Hope you can solve this, greetings RaaF |
Hello RaaF, hello javier__d, which phex distribution do you use, binary or source? On phex 0.7 there was a problem with the binary distribution, maybe also on phex 0.7.3? I've never used the binary distribution. I use Win98, I've changed some registry entries to allow more TCP connections, I never tried phex with less than 32 (8 is default). The key is: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\NetTr ans\xxxx\Ndi\MaxInstance, where xxxx is a Number and ...\NetTrans\xxxx\DriverDesc is "TCP/IP". Furthermore, I use the Hummingbird socks client generally, so I never used the phex buildin socks support. Maybe one of these points helps you. Helge |
Hi I'm on Linux using binary distribution for j2re 1.3. And now that you've mentioned the number of connections I have tried to increase number of connections (in phex) from 7 to 20 and have come to following. A try to make an outgoing connection should be dropped after some timeout value. Mostly I see this happend with an error message "Error. Timeout while opening socket.". But some of tries to connect last much longer without beeing successfull. As the other connections drop after some time, this "BAD" tries to connect move upwards in my connections list and eventually fill all allowed connection slots and stay there. So phex doesn't try to make any new outgoing connections. When these tries are removed manually phex starts to work fine (till it's not stuck with this tries again). And still the problem with too short connections. Maximum time I see connection to hold is about 10 minutes. And one more question: I have several connections (Incomming) from the same IP. Is it ok? Is it normal? Thanx that You care. Javier |

Hello Javier, have you tried putting the IP into the Phex Ignored Hosts list? Helge |

I had a lot of old phex files around and did a cleanup and reinstalled 073 Should have thought of that before :o 073 is running perfect now ! |
Hi phexers. I've just had wonderfull 3 hours with phex. Just like the old times. All connections holding, downloading ok, uploading ok. After these three hours it all simply got back to the 'BADBAD' state again. This was the first time of everything running as espected for me since 0.6.3. And I didn't do anything for it. It just worked. I don't know why. And I don't know why it doesn't work now. :o Does anyone have any idea? Javier |

Music industries trying to attack at the mom > No why should I do it? Because the music industy (the big ones) is trying to get file sharing down by blocking hosts, uploading bad files etc. |
error : connection refused Connection refused is all I have ever got from MacPhex. I tried under OS 10.15 and now under OS 10.2, but the results is the same. Lots of attempts to connect, but all refused almost instantly. Using NAT with forced IP and port 6346 opened on router. Limewire doesn't work that well, but it does connect. What am I doing wrong? |
Is there a conspiracy afoot? Hello, I started using Phex with version 0.6.4 and recently upgraded to 0.7.3. I'm running Windows 2000 behind a NAT router with my IP hard-coded for export and the Phex port open in the firewall. I share over 900MB in 301 files. I have had difficulty connecting to other peers on the network. I can connect to the auto-connect hosts to get an initial list of IPs in the host-catcher...but I can't connect to the peers. I get a lot of "503 - full" errors, and far too many "connection refused" errors. When I do manage to connect, I don't stay connected for very long. The peers drop the connection, I get "JVM error messages", or I get a "deprecated, no broadcast foward" messages (what does that mean, exactly?). As for the connection refused, I have two theories: 1. Other vendors are coding to reject connections from Phex 2. My IP address was recently rotated. The previous person with this IP may have been an evil Gnutella user (distributing viruses and the like) and has been marked as "ignore" by just about everyone. :( Are there any thoughts about this? Have I missed something vital? I've read other threads that talk about this problem, but there never seems to be any answers. I tried uninstalling and re-installing Phex but to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time, Clayton Rumley |

When you do a uninstall, make shure you delete all Phex files from your Documents and settings folder |
Problems with Phex 0.7.3 I've installed Phex 0.7.3 recently and it seems there are a lot of bugs in this release, at least it appears so on my configuration (Win2000, JDK1.3). It looses download list, there are some problems with configuration settings form (sometimes it doesn't close), and it throws a lot of exceptions in the output window. The 0.7.2 release I use today seems to work fine, except maybe connection timeout problem it has when unable to locate an IP address, and it should be removed manually from the queue (If there is such a need I have a nice workaround on the connection timeout problem in java.net.HTTPConnection class). I haven't noticed any bugs the new release removed, it certainly introduced many new ones. Am I wrong? It would be nice to see any comments on that I've just written about... |
Download list dropping At least, It seems I've found why Phex 0.7.2 loses its download list. I've been trying to work with phexdownload.xml file, and I've found the problem is in "#" characters. The software successfully writes above file with these characters (e.g. in filenames), but can't read it back!!! |
