[Skimmertalk] can't find SkimSrv.ini

[Marco HB9CAT]

Thank you Bob,

 

CQ Skimmer was already running as registered; but just to be safe I

*	Uninstalled Skimmer Server
*	Uninstalled CQ Skimmer
*	Rebooted
*	Fresh install CW Skimmer, it came up already as registered
*	Close CW skimmer
*	Install Skimmer Server
*	Change some parameter (telnet port)
*	Exit and restart Skimmer server: the parameters are back to default (config was not saved)

 

Looking for SkimSrv.ini in the usual directory, it is not there; only Spots.txt and TelnetSrv.txt

 

I tried it also on another PC, same problem

 

What am I missing ?

When moving to a new PC, first you have to install CW Skimmer (not the server), then enter your REGISTRATION CODE to register it, before CW SkimSrv will work properly.

1.	Exit CW Skimmer Server
2.	Start CW Skimmer (not the server)
3.	Select Help  | Enter Reg Key
4.	Enter your CW Skimmer Registration key
5.	Exit CW Skimmer
6.	Start CW Skimmer Server

Any changes you make should be saved in SkimSrv.ini.

 

To find your registration key, search for an email From: RegSoft.com or From: swreg.org <http://swreg.org> 

 

GL.

Hello,



due to a PC change I had to do a fresh install of the CW Skimmer Server; I
know I have to edit some parameters, but I don't find the skimsrv.ini
anywhere, I looked particularly in the
%appdata%/Roaming/Afreet/Products/SkimServ directory.

Moreover, if I change any parameters (for example telnet port), they don't
get stored; this just confirms that the skimsrv.ini is not being used.



I tried to start it as Administrator, doesn't change



Any clue ?
