It has to be related to the DLL. Try copying the latest DLL and clearing the DB (delete the trackerdb.* files) and try again.

I did that, but I'll try again. From what I can tell from .dll Properties Michael is using the same one as the old beta patch. Is that what you see too, or are you guys staying away from the beta patches?

Head-slap time. It was me. I copied the .dll from the patched root AE folder, not from inside the Beta2 sub-folder. Loads now, but I lost my 12/7/41 hisotry. Oh well.

Nothing to see here . . .

Yes, you can have java7 installed as well as Java6. You need Java6 for Tracker to work.

Steps:
1. Follow the step 1-2 on this page
https://sites.google.com/site/witptracker/installation

2. At step 3 Install Java6
http://www.java.com/en/download/manual_v6.jsp

3. Proceed to step 4

4. At Step 5 - Edit the witptracker.bat file to point to the java6 executable.

See pic.

5. If you are using the beta, copy the pwsdll.dll from the beta2 folder into the witptracker folder.

I'm sure this has been answered before but I get this error message.
I have the latest Java (32bit) and the C++ latest download.

Your point of saying the latest java indicates Java7 ... this is incompatible with TrackerAe. Read my post 2 up ;-)

Using the beta? Move the dll to the tracker folder from beta2 folder.

This one. And yes, I copied the dll files from the game folder into the WITPtracker folder.
Thank you very much for your help BTW. I once had tracker working and found it awesome when playing the Japanese side. I am about to start a PBEM game as the Japanese and definitely do not want to do it without tracker.

Guys,

It's come to my attention that when tracker creates a CSV file of Sunk Ships, it strips out the '(' and ')' that appear in some ships' types. In Tracker, ships' types and names are combined into one field, so I guess that's the name field.

What is the reason for that? Is there a chance that could be reversed with the next release? I'm doing some things with the CSV files and they are not lining with with the list of ship types. Before I started varying from that standard list, I thought I should ask.

The '.txt' file attached is actually a .zip of a sample CSV.

I have a mystery entry in my alerts as follows:

LCU, HQ Required, LCU queued as reinforcement, Delay of 9999 days

Any idea what this mean or entails??

This is not working properly ... do you have the right pwsdll.dll in the tracker folder ?

Delete all the trackerdb.* files, check you have the right dll and reinitialise..

Hi Kaleun -
Looks like you have everything correct.Sometimes the C++ patch doesn't work as expected. Could you uninstall and reinstall the C++. Do as MS update (do it manually to check). Delete all the trackerdb.* files and try again.

If this doesn't work, I'm willing to use teamviewer8 to have a remote session to see what's wrong ... but that is up to you as you must trust me to look at your machine ;-)

These are the files I have on my machine ... the 2005 C++ (but you note I have 2008 and 2010 as well) and java 6Up38

It's not on purpose... I'll look at it.
