  • Hpt os2

    From Rick Smith@1:105/10.1 to All on Sat Feb 20 21:17:42 2021
    Greetings All!

    Like Michael I am also trying to get this to work on arca.. We have got it to build, run without error ie hpt toss pack scan all run without error. However hpt toss does not toss the inb packs ie .sa0 for today they just remain there, and no errors given. In fact the toss output looks normal it just isnt tossing any packets. Is there anyone here actually running hpt on os2 where we could compare setups...?

    I have an eCS OS/2 virtual machine I can test it on. Please post your config :)

    unpack "unzip -j -Loqq $a $f -d $p" 0 504b0304

    My unpack line:

    Unpack "c:\util\unzip.exe -C -j -o $a $f -d $p" 0 504b0304

    Try to remove "qq" to see what unzip actually does. And I dont see any reason for "L" in OS/2.

    I made mine like this it did not change anything the pkts still remain in inb.. no errors and hpt toss with run
    completely clean of errors, it just shows 0 messages tossed.

    What if you manually unzip the arcmail bundles?

    Are you sure they are zips? :)

    Could it be in the build? I have to admit this was my first attempt at building it os2. here are the exe's that I
    produced maybe I am missing something?

    Did you try http://download.huskyproject.org/os2/husky-all-1.9-os2-libc066-20210213.zip ?

    Further information.

    I rebuilt all the .exe's (just because why not)
    This is the order I built

    huskylib
    smapi
    fidoconf
    areafix
    hpt

    here is the commands I used

    cd huskylib\make
    wmake -h -f makefile.watcom OS2=1 clean
    wmake -h -f makefile.watcom OS2=1
    cd ..\..

    Seems ok, however I don't have watcom installed (yet).

    I can test your watcom exes if you want, just send them to 2:221/360.

    I did notice yours is hpt-emx while ours is hpt-wc which I am we built
    -wc because -emx didnt work correctly with .jam?

    On 2021-02-14 15:10:28 UTC there was a change to the code that accidentally broke JAM on all systems, not just EMX.

    A fix was committed to the huskyproject repo (smapi module) two hours ago.

    just thought I'd let everyone know, the latest 'smapi' fix, broke hpt again, hpt wont 'see' the packets in anyway shape or form unzipping the bundles, hpt still does not see anything no errors in hpt.log

    Thanks for this. I was able to reproduce it in OS/2.

    The failing code that I removed was only relevant to 16-bit OS/2 1.x, which Husky has never supported anyway.

    I've committed a fix to the zoomosis/huskylib fork:

    https://github.com/zoomosis/huskylib/commit/a25130e5efda0d1942f1b20f275218bfd6ee64bb

    ... which should hopefully be visible in upstream huskyproject/huskylib soon.

    Ok, that's why I don't see any problems with the current version.

    Seems we are so close to this working.... Here is how golded reports reading the messages hpt tosses may provide a clue?

    Hello andrew!

    Replying to a msg dated 23 Feb 21 23:21, from you to me.
    just re-built hpt, and as of right now, it looks like everything is now working as it should, no errors, no missing headers.. everything so far so good

    Thank you for your hard work getting it fixed
