02:49:18 <vampy> anyone in here actually watching the room this time ?
02:49:25 <vampy> looking for some assistance
02:50:19 <AluisioASG> vampy: I'll stay here for a few more minutes.
02:50:47 <vampy> ok ... number one ... whenever i try to post in the support forum it tells me i've activated the spam filter
02:51:29 <AluisioASG> Try not including links. That should work.
02:51:46 <vampy> no links being posted
02:51:55 <AluisioASG> hmm
02:52:10 <AluisioASG> What's the length of your posts?
02:53:09 <vampy> anywhere from "whenever i try to post in the support forum it tells me i've activated the spam filter" to me describing the problem i'm having with developing an app
02:53:32 <vampy> number 2 .... when trying to build my own app i am getting an error message saying that my ini file cant launch my program
02:54:02 <vampy> error message: "filepath\coretemp\app\appinfo\launcher\coretemp.ini is missing [Launch]:ProgramExecutable - what am i to launch? "
02:54:59 <AluisioASG> Is there a ProgramExecutable= line in the given file?
02:55:16 <vampy> ive followed one of the tutorials ... ive also tried just using the portable apps template ... ive also tried doing it by pulling apart oneof the already created portables and changing everything to match my program
02:55:47 <vampy> ive deleted the app now .. but yes there was ...
02:56:21 <vampy> tried: [launch] programexecutable=appname.exe
02:56:23 <AluisioASG> Was the [Launch] line the first one?
02:56:50 <AluisioASG> I assume ProgramExecutable= was on a different line that [Launch]
02:56:58 <vampy> also tried: [launch] appnameexecutable=appname.exe
02:57:01 <vampy> yep it was
02:57:21 <vampy> and funny thing is that in the app that i pulled apart i couldnt even see a [launch] line at all
02:58:02 <AluisioASG> Older apps don't use the new launcher, so they don't have that file at all
02:58:19 <AluisioASG> How did you save the file? Do you remember the encoding?
02:58:55 <vampy> well i used the template and/or the original apps file so it would be the same encoding as reqd
02:59:04 <vampy> utf-8 isnt it ?
02:59:25 <AluisioASG> Yes. It should be UTF-8 with no byte-order mark.
02:59:55 <AluisioASG> You can try saving as UTF-16LE (which Notepad calls "Unicode")
03:00:13 <vampy> well i didnt change the type of file from within the template or pre-existing app so the encoding shouldnt be an issue
03:00:18 <vampy> ok
03:01:13 <vampy> now to number 3 .. which is really just more of a query
03:01:39 <vampy> is there any way to force a category onto a standalone or other non-paf app ?
03:02:27 <vampy> i have a large number of standalone portables (single file/sfx types) and I want them in there but i really need them in their correct category
03:03:11 <vampy> its the reason I was trying to create apps like the core temp one that i was having the issues with the ini file
03:03:23 <AluisioASG> Right-click on them in the Platform. There should be an item called "Category" or something like that.
03:03:39 <vampy> oooh ok ... thanks
03:03:46 <vampy> didnt think of that one lol
03:04:52 <vampy> any way i can get into contact with anyone who can resolve my posting issue ... since it would be nice if i could post my apps once created so that someone can help test them etc
03:05:29 <vampy> could it have anything to do with my account being only a day old ?
03:05:37 <AluisioASG> possibly
03:05:48 <vampy> ok ty
03:06:31 <vampy> ok so the launch line needs to be the first line
03:07:46 <vampy> i am going to test one now
03:08:20 <AluisioASG> Not necessarily. The issue is that, if it is and the file has an UTF-8 byte-order mark, we won't recognize it.
03:08:43 <AluisioASG> We are expecting [Launch] and get <gibberish>[Launch]
03:09:02 <AluisioASG> This shouldn't be a problem with UTF-16
03:09:15 <vampy> ah ok i see
03:09:47 <vampy> ok ... do u mind waiting just a cpl more mins while i do this quickly
03:09:59 <AluisioASG> ok
03:13:50 <vampy> hmmm ... the template doesnt have a basic appinfo.ini file in it
03:14:56 <AluisioASG> hm, I think it should have
03:15:18 <AluisioASG> Anyway, I'll have to leave now
03:16:05 <AluisioASG> You can try posting in the forums later (the website goes for automated maintenance in 5 hours for 15 minutes, so you could try after that)
03:16:20 <AluisioASG> Good luck

If you use a PublicKeyFile for authentication it will be stored as a parameter called "PublicKeyFile" in the session files. If the key file is stored on the same drive letter it doesn't change if you switch the computer and get on other drive letter. With the Putty Portable Launcher this was not a problem.
