Ed Sybesma Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 The Program Summary tab Shows the most recent run time and status result for programs. Is there any way to keep or obtain a log which shows the history of previous runs, similar to the Log of device events available under the Tools menu? Link to comment
tmorse305 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I use NodeLink for logging. It can keep track of devices, programs and variables. It's very useful for tracking down intermittent problems. Link to comment

That now is unavailable. I am not otherwise familiar with running this type of file/program. What do you run/load NodeLink with: Polisy? Docker? Or? The instructions for NodeLink say: Download and run the latest version of NodeLink from:http://automationshack.com/Files/NodeLink.dllhttp://automationshack.com/Files/NodeLink.runtimeconfig.json Neither .dll files nor .json files run directly from Windows. I am obviously missing some basic background here, but my search of the Internet has not given me any answers. Thank you much for any help you can provide. Link to comment

Unless you have a dedicated windows machine running 24/7 for some other reason, the best bet is likely running it on a raspberry pi... more info here: http://automationshack.com/wp/nodelink/ Link to comment

I do have a dedicated Windows machine running 24/7. What do I need to do to run NodeLink on Windows? Link to comment

io_guy Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Install the Windows .NET 5 or 6 runtime. You can then run "dotnet NodeLink.dll". Link to comment

That is a great start. When I run either "dotnet NodeLink.dll" or "dotnet NodeLink.dll NodeLink.runtimeconfig.json" (within a folder where all the files are located), I get the following result ( with some numbers intentionally concealed with x's here): 2022-04-10 16:13:35 - ISY NodeLink Server v0.11.3 started 2022-04-10 16:13:35 - OS: Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.19044.0 2022-04-10 16:13:35 - Installed .NET Runtime Version: 5.0.15 [5] 2022-04-10 16:13:35 - Web config server started (http://192.xxx.xx.x:8xxx) 2022-04-10 16:13:35 - No password specified for the ISY 2022-04-10 16:13:36 - ISY resolved to 192.xxx.xx.xx (5.0.16C) The Windows Powershell Administrator window then freezes and nothing else obvious happens. So it looks like I have gotten to the first step properly, but something else is missing. Any further ideas? Link to comment
io_guy Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 That's it. Go to the webconfig with your browser. Link to comment

Unfortunately, the last tip doesn't seem to be helping. I have 16 web.config files on my drive. Some of them are human readable and some not. None of them are new enough to have anything to do with running the NodeLink. Of the ones that are readable, none have anything to do with NodeLink or ISY. What am I missing? Link to comment

There you will add the ISY credentials. The port is 8090, and the ip is the ip for the computer running NodeLink. Link to comment

I just concealed them with x's just in case (contrary to my expectation) they could have been used by anyone to hack my system. Link to comment

Yes, you said that, I included the port number in case you no longer had access to the non-redacted version. 8090 is the std port for NodeLink, common knowledge. Can you access the browser interface?

I now see that the fourth line of the original input was directing me to the web config server. Thank you very much. Link to comment
tmorse305 Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Glad you got it working. It's a great addition to your ISY environment. Link to comment
tmorse305 Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 I should be tagged with an "assist" not the solution. That goes to @io_guy for developing the app for all of us!! Link to comment
