WinXP_64/Server2003_64 + crash of 790a-32

#1 Post by DrOli » 01.12.2019, 22:06

Does the 64-bit donor version work with WinXP_64/Server2003_64?

I am happy to make a donation, but the public 790a 32-bit version crashes on launch (it launches with an error message and fails to work, and must be exited by deleting in TaskManager). Here is its error report/log

You sould check the 804 beta first https://freecommander.com/en/downloads/.

Cheers for that 804 beta works on WinXP64 (at least following only a cursory test).

Still, is that either a necessary or sufficient condition that "donor 64bit" will work?

If 804 32 bit beta works then it is very likely that the current donor version 806 64 bit works too.

Again, many thanks.

Though when I click donate, it states that the download (and I copy/paste from their page) is: FreeCommander XE 2019 Build 790 64-bit $8.25 CAD

... that looks like v790, which is crashed. Where would the 804/806 etc 64 bit be found?

UGH.

OK, so went for 1-year w/update. But that provides 790a 64, which, what a surprise, fails to work at all. It won't launch, and it doesn't even appear in TaskManager (at least with 790a 32 there was basic Interface (not much worked) and a TaskManager entry. I thought I would be able to get at least that far, and then use the update ... no joy.

Please advise on access to 80x 64-bit

Cheers

Well, made some progress. There were multiple emails rec'd following "donation", in part due to FastSprings "complications", in part to FC's emails. The immediate email provided a direct dload link to the donor version (which was 790a, already known to fail in 32, but failed also on 64, as per above).

Eventually, we did find an email with links to the donor/member site, and found 80x 64's. May we suggest not sending multiple emails with conflicting information.

Unfortunately, they failed also: tried both 804 64, and 806 64 under WinXP64, each failed to launch on the error - failed entry point for GetTickCount64 in Kernel32.dll.

After that we did not try other versions.

The correct entry point, and you are welcome to the dependency walker read out, is GetTickCount (i.e. without the 64) in Kernel32 ver 5.2.3790.5295.

This is a common problem with developers cross-compiling for WinXX 64, since those entry points are only in later versions of Win (I believe after Vista??).

Any chance on cross-compiling with an "overloaded" version, or whatever, so that it will actually work with WinXP64 etc?

Cheers

What would be the benefit to compile or debug a tool for such an exotic and unsupported OS as WinXP x64 ?
Windows 11 Home x64 Version 23H2 (OS Build 22631.3296)
Everything Version 1.5.0.1371a (x64), Everything Toolbar 1.3.2, Listary Pro 6.3.0.67
FreeCommander XE 2024 Build 905 64-bit donor

You could try 806 32 bit.

I have made change for the next release: GetTickCount64 is used for Vista+.

Cheers for that

Though we are not sure if what you mean by making changes to the next release. Does that mean a WinXP-64/Server03_64 compatible version? Please advise.

We had tried the 32 bit version, but only to confirm that 806 works at that level (as per earlier exchanges). Those tests show results further underscoring the need for a 64 bit version.

We would add, it would seem a little unfair to end up without a 64 bit version, since:

1) The product is advertised as supported for both WinXP 32 - 64

2) This entire discussion began and continued with the explicit question of WinXP_64/Server03_64 support. Our consideration of testing/using FC was explicitly predicated on that.

We continue to assume it was not your intention to "string us along" had you known at the outset the product did not support the specific objective.

3) Your condemnation of WinXP64 is misplaced, and also wrong. WinXP64 is a slightly de-tuned version of Server03_64 (cf. anything actually resembling WinXP32). It is a common mistake to conflate those. Server03 etc is still in some reasonably wide use. Also, in-spite of the "unsupported" assertion, it continues to be supported. For example, there were updates provided every year, up to and including this year.

Even MS is it not so stupid as to "screw over" the server community, as MS's does with its standard practice in connection with the retail community.

Should you change your mind about WinXP_64/Server03_64 support, which is your privilege, our preference would be: do not advertise or cause (unintentionally even) anyone to make payments or invest substantial resources/time on what has been promised/discussed, but not delivered

We look forward to the fix.

Please try the 807 release.

Cheers for that.

... alas, no joy, FCXE.exe is still looking for the GetTickCount64 entry, and fails.

Running Agent Ransack shows GetTickCount64 showing up in both FreeCommanderXE.exe and ielib64.dll (though GetTickCount, without the "64", is also there).

We expect you have considerable expertise. So, we would not presume to tell you how to manage such things, but it is possible that the manner in which GetTickCount64 was left in the package, while it may not actually be called explicitly via 807 under Server03_64, may still cause FC to look for it in Kernel32 as part of its "check libs/entries" process.

If you like, and If you are willing to let us know what language/env etc you are using, and what specific implementation you use (e.g. compiler pre-proc, overloading, cross-comp, or whatever ..), we might be able to make a contribution (where "might" is being careful to manage expectations :-).
