TCP Port Error #22

Closed frmuses closed 5 years ago

frmuses commented 5 years ago

When we ping 3 servers using a text file for hosts, it allows us to create log files, but when we try to ping using a specific TCP port, it gives the following error as shown below.

This is due to the “:” character in the ping call between the IP and the port (for example - www.google.com:1492). In order to make this work, they would just need to include a character check and swap the “:” for a “_” or “-“, or swap the character they look for in their gui for an OS supported character.

Good catch. Fixed here https://github.com/R-Smith/vmPing/commit/f6df0493a2254f4002b652f0d2ad2dbc997628bc. Invalid filename characters are now swapped with _.

The next release will include the patch.

The newly released v1.3.2 includes the patch.
