Old Versions of RadioDJ & Windows 10

So I installed a Windows 10 Virtual machine to do some testing as to which versions still ran


I installed MySQL Community server 5.5


v1.3.7.0: Managed to install the database BUT it Did not work and threw error after error at me. Yes .NET 2.0  was installed

V1.6.0: Works but I had problems getting settings to save I had to manually change settings via the .xml files. Got a couple of .net errors when trying to fire up the database setup tool.


Thats as far as I got with my testing today. Its nice to know 1.6.0. still works.

Let us know when you get to 1.8.2 because I'm thinking of upgrading my computer :cool:

AFAIK 1.8.2 should work with very little hassle on Windows 10.

Been streaming (to my private server) using 1.6.0 & SEC for a couple of days now and its been great I've had no issues.


1.6.0 really was a great version of the software, Sounds pretty slick too.  Hard to believe but 1.6.0 is 10 years old now.


I can still remember helping test it.

Hi Gary, I confirm, I have installed version 1.6.0. on a PC with Windows 10 Pro, Maria db 10.5 and amazingly it works perfectly. I regret certain vintage icons that Marius could insert next editions. I really like the ability to switch from slot mode to list mode with a simple click. I think I will continue to enjoy it for several days.  :hihi: :hihi: :hihi:

I'm running 1.6.0 with MySQL Community server 5.5 as I couldn't get the database to install on MariaDB 10.5.8


I have MariaDB installed on port 3307 as a separate service

Isn't supposed to be port 3306?

DJ Garybaldy

You can change the port SQL runs on by changing the ports in the .ini file. 3306 is the default port I've had it running on 3307 before.

MariaDB is running as a MariadB in services the Community server 5.5 is running on port 3306 and is running as MySQL service.

Because they don't have the same service name I can run the two server instances...

MaraiDB setup allows you to call the service what you want

I got bored so I downloaded v0.1.5.8 and installed it and it seems to be behaving itself on Windows 10.

I remember I used to have some sound issues with v0.1.5.8  when I initially tried it on Windows XP all those years ago but i don't appear to have any audio glitches on Windows 10

The tracks are mixing well, The Audio sounds great.

Thanks for the reports as you go down Memory Lane.
When RadioDJ 203x is finalized it will certainly be the Flag Ship on this Great Journey thus far.

Cheers

I've not had an issue with 2.0.3.1 other than the repeating artists but hopefully Marius is on the case of that one...

NICE
Only it's not storing the setting in the database.For me in portent. so i do not use this version, or test it.
Hope there will be an update of this beta version soon!

I've decided to put 1.6.0 to good use, I'm using it to play my radio stream while 2.0.3.5 plays the music  :bash:

I had 2.0.0.6 running flawlessly for a few months in a Win10 VirtualBox VM, as long as I kept the MariaDB database on the Linux host machine.  I never got past the Key Exception with the database on the VM.

My UbuntuStudio server finally had to be upgraded from 21.10 to 22.04, and it somehow broke something.  Now using any version of the database, it hangs at the splash screen.  The clock still works, but it's already crashed out in the Event Viewer with a Stopped Communicating error.  Heidi still sees the DB fine, and still exports it.  The RDJ Database utility can't connect.  I'm setting it up in another partition to see if I can isolate the problem.

Would the splash screen be where it's trying to access the database?

worldradioman

I got it back working.  It fails at the MariaDB 10.5.x to 10.6x upgrade.  I went back to 10.5.17 and installed flawlessly on the VM itself, rather than just the Linux host.
