RCC: "Error String is too long" when starting

Post by JuergenF »

I connect to HM Server via RCC
During the connection process I see in the LOG-Window this as last message:

Code: Select all

Retrieving test list... Error: String is too long. File may be currupt.
And a Popup Error-Window tells:

Code: Select all

String is too long. File may be corrupt.
I deleted test by test from my testlist.
This one causes the error.

Code: Select all

I suppose, you are using old version of RCC from version 6.42 to access to the HostMonitor version 6.51. You should use RCC from 6.51 installation to make it work.

Hi Max,

shame on me :oops:

I could tell you a long story how that happens .....
.... but in fact you are right.
I used file version 1.80.0.35 - that produced the error.
I reinstalled RCC, now file version is 1.80.0.38 - and no error.

Sorry again for beeing such a fool.

Best regards and many thanks

Juergen
