Re: [AG-TECH] AG Toolkit 2.4 fails to start

I suspect this has to do with proxy server settings on your machine.
If you file a bug from within the software (Help->SubmitBugReport),
a recent portion of your VenueClient.log file will be included and we'll
be able to identify and resolve the problem.  I'd encourage you to do
this so we can fix it for you and anyone else who might encounter it.

I believe I already understand the problem and can help you get it fixed
quickly.

Thanks,

Tom

I installed an AG Toolkit v2.4 on an XP SP1 machine according to specs and when I try to start the venue client, it will abort. In debug mode it says "Initialization Error: unpack list of wrong size" right after it started the Certificate Request Wizard. Anybody knows what the heck this is? I am lost and would need a solution real quick!
Thanks!

        Heheh.. yea.. quite right. Ooops. I hate that word for how often I
misspell it. I really had to make sure I got it right in the source code
for AGVCR. For emails, obviously I'm still having problems. :)
