Default Launch Behaviour: Auto Start Threads

[ohhdemgirls]

I had issues with 1.9.0 closing randomly maybe 3 times a day so I wrote this batch to keep it alive, not sure if I've got the same problem with 1.10.1 but the default launch behaviour is different now, the threads don't auto-start downloading...

Was this on purpose? I think it's best either way to have threads auto-start upon launching the application.

Threads only start on launch if the page didn't 404 and it wasn't previously stopped. This is intended behavior to avoid respectively unnecessary requests and unwanted thread start.

All threads are started, active and my batch is running, I close the app, wait for the batch to reopen the app, all threads are stopped.. what am I missing?

[SuperGouge]

What is the full status of your threads when they are stopped? Also what exactly does your batch do? I think you don't need it in 1.10.1 (or even 1.9.0 for that matter).

What is the full status of your threads when they are stopped?

They aren't stopped, before closing the app to test they all say Waiting # seconds so they're all active when the app closes, when the app opens again all threads are stopped.

Also what exactly does your batch do?

It's checks to see if ChanThreadWatch.exe is running and if it isn't it runs it. I made it because I need full automation and 1.9.0 would randomly close a few times a day.

[SuperGouge]

Yes but what do they say when you restart the app?

[ohhdemgirls]

Nothing, nothing is listed in the status field.

[SuperGouge]

Then it just means you have to wait for them to start. You probably have a huge thread list and they take time to all start. I improved the overall startup time but unfortunately having the auto-follow support means delaying starting the threads in order for it to work without any problem.

12 threads, waited 10 minutes, still nothing in status..

[SuperGouge]

That is weird. And when you manually start them they do work?

[ohhdemgirls]

Yeah, manually starting them works perfectly.

[SuperGouge]

Did you try the 1.10.2 version? Do all the threads get at least loaded? Also, can you post your settings and your thread list?

Yea, same results. But all threads load okay.

Also, can you post your settings and your thread list?

Settings & threads (heh, all pervy threads, no shame)

[SuperGouge]

I'm sorry but due to the nature of what you are doing with this program I cannot offer further support.

Just kidding, the settings file confirms what I thought. Backup everything just in case and run this file: http://www.mediafire.com/download/1em47xr4mr2mvh8/ChanThreadWatch.exe

You should have an error pop up. Press the "Details" button or anything similar and give me the information about the error.

[ohhdemgirls]

I'm sorry but due to the nature...

Heh, boobies.

give me the information about the error.

Here you go..

[SuperGouge]

Ok try this one and let me know what happens: http://www.mediafire.com/download/uzfzzgyc0o49qd0/ChanThreadWatch(2).exe

Also, with all the shenanigans that happened your child threads may be a little bit clunky and skew the results.

try this one and let me know what happens:

Gave this error..

[SuperGouge]

Sorry was meant to be this: http://www.mediafire.com/download/j9l2p9b1w9hrr7f/ChanThreadWatch(3).exe

[ohhdemgirls]

That one works as intended, starts, loads threads, starts downloading pages, awesome :+1:
