IoX finder: Error, Not Found

[lhranch]

Every time I start up ISY Launch, the IoX finder scans my network for ISYs, finds them, then puts up a dialog box saying "Error, not found." I think this is because at one point no ISYs were coming up for some reason, so I typed in the DNS name of the ISY and managed to type it in wrong. Now it looks for that bad name every time it comes up. There's no way to remove an ISY entry that never comes up. I haven't been able to figure out where the names are stored so that I could patch it out, and clearing the Java cache doesn't do the trick. Does anybody know how I can remove that bad name from the list of ISYs the finder scans for every time it starts?

Selecting all three boxes in the Java clearance should clean everything out.

Them reload the IoX finder fresh.

In General / Temporary Internet Files / View, I deleted everything under Applications, Resources, and Deleted Applications. Then in Settings, I punched the Delete Files button, clicked all three boxes, and hit OK. Then I launched my copy of start.jnlp, and got the same error.

I finally got rid of the message by doing all of the above over again, then deleting my copy of start.jnlp, re-downloading it, and then launching it.

Thanks for putting me on the right track.

Glad you got it sorted out. Seems like you might have had an old "version" of the start.jnlp file. There was an issue several months ago (October 2023) about that happening when something changed in the background (best I can explain). I was going to ask when you were getting the "not found" error. If it was a pop up what you just did (using a fresh downloaded start.jnlp file fixed).

If you're saying you're getting it in the IoX Finder title bar that's something different. But, sounds like you got it resolved.

As to where stored addresses are kept they're probably in the .state files 

Here's some wiki info related to other issues, but I think one of them might keep the info of manually entered IP information.

Usually though manually entered IP addresses can be removed without issue.

Yup, dialog box, popup, potato, potahto. October 2023 also sounds like about the same time frame I roached my launcher and had to download a new copy. The images in 42176 are exactly what I was seeing.
