I have Meta 9.0 installed.  When I run the Enhanced System Tester, it then shows up a "Just-In-Time Debugging" .... having clicked yes...it shows Microsoft VBScript Eorror: it doesn't support ...'Environment.IEPrint withPage=True'

I remember when I use 8.0, it show a grapic of the Disk Usage..... with the above error, it doesn't show the graphic...

How can I fix it?

Bullstock 

hey bullstock..... thats the console summary html missing the graph..... copy and paste the address below in any browser window.....click go/enter..... if the warning comes up about restricted content, click options and allow it..... do you see the page with the graph of disk usage.....h

 

C:\Program Files\Equis\MetaStock\Results\Console Summary.htm

 

 

Hayseed,

Do you mean I should copy the console summary html from MS 8.0 to MS 9.0 under the specific folder?  I have tried that, but the same error message also show up and MS 9.0 is not able to show the disk usage graphic.

However, I can run System Tester which does show result in numbers with no ability to show graphics - disk usage, bar chart for result... how can I fix it?

Bullstock 

hey bullstock..... no i meant copy and paste the address below in any browser window and click go or enter....

i'm not sure what type inter browser your using but if its ie you should see "

http://forum.equis.com/forums/thread/21283.aspx  next to address at the top of this page..... replace those words with

C:\Program Files\Equis\MetaStock\Results\Console Summary.htm 

thats if you have meta 9 installed on your c drive and in the equis folder....

it should load the last summary with the graph.... be sure to allow the active content if the warning message comes up..... do you see the graph after allowing the allowing the content....

that graph is consider active content and sometimes our local settings might not allow it ......DXImageTransform.Microsoft    ......h

Hayseed,

I am still not sure where should I copy and paste the address .....

here are some captured images when I use System Tester:-

BullStock,

Assuming you have installed your MS to its default directory.... this might get you to where hayseed is talking about:

copy this into the address line in your favourite browser:
file:///C:/Program%20Files/Equis/MetaStock/Results/Console%20Summary.htm

[edit: I should have known local link urls would have been disabled!!!!]

Wabbit,

what do you mean by "favourite browser"?

internet explorer?

bullstock

hey bullstock.....  favorite browser is just the browser your using... more on that below...

i was just wondering if perhaps your setting to not allow active content was disabling the graph....

wabbits link should work just as well, it did here..... just copy and paste it into your browser window... if the active content is not displayed after allowing it, holler back....

i had a similar problem before, can't really recall how it was resolved.... perhaps the st data file... still studying on it......

favorite browser is just the browser your using...  we can tell which type browser people are using, with so many types my and wabbits instructions had to be general.... .... there was a time when micro's  ie was almost solely used .... now days mozilla is becoming more widely used...... there are some really wild browsers, such as konqueror,  isilox,  safari ..... and believe or not there are a couple people out there using something called opra....... h

hayseed:

and believe or not there are a couple people out there using something called opra....... h

Careful h....  Jose uses Opera!  [;D]

Check out what the basic install can do : http://www.opera.com/products/desktop/

I think you will find more and more people will start using these 'alternatives' to Micro$oft Infernal  Exploder as many of these other browsers are more customisable and allow the user to install only the features they NEED.

Personally I use FireFox, but am still required to use IE (yuk) when some site don't function properly in browsers other than IE.  When will these companies wake up to themselves, and reality?!  I tried Opera too, but very few web designers are checking for Opera.

Careful h....  Jose uses Opera   .....  hehe, yes i know.... jose has been abit dissapointed lately, just trying to cheer him up.....

 

mozilla has become more popular.... being just a hayseed myself, i tend to use whatever dell ships with it.... not sure what , if any, enhancements vista will bring......  keep saying i'm going to download and try it out but never seem to have the time.....h

well, I have tried both, but it doesn't seem working.  What else should I do?  I have tried to installed MS8 and it works.  just wonder what I could do .....

Bullstock

Help please!

Can anyone give more help to resolve this?...... still can't should the graphics (disk usage and the p&L chart)....

Bullstock

-Click Start>My Computer>C:>Program Files>Equis>MetaStock>Results

-Double click on Console Summary.htm

Does the graphic display in Internet Explorer?  Do you get any messages stating Internet Explorer has blocked the content?  It you choose to allow the content through does the graphic display?

hey bullstock.......  really  need more info from you before preceding otherwise i'm sitting here guessing....  reread my prior post and explain to me what you see when you do this..... please explain indepth....

also , are you comfortable going into your metastock folder and renaming a file if need be...... h

Hi Pyradius and Hayseed,

I have followed what Hayseed's suggestion, clicked "allow blocked content".... but graphic (disk usage) doesn't show up.  Not sure why!

Regards,

Bullstock

It still doesn't show the graphic.  Strangely, I tried to installed MS 8.0, with folder name "Equis" and amend the 9.0 folder to be "Equis90".  MS 8.0 can show the graphics.  When I rename the MS 8.0 folder to "Equis80" and the MS9.0 folder to become "Equis" again.  It can show the grahics. 

However, the MS 9.0 has crashed a few times with the RT data and it used to be stable when installed alone.

My thought is that there might be a missing file / dll, etc with the MS 9.0 installation...... can anyone from Equis or others help me fixing it?

Bullstock

hey bullstock... strange things happen when switching versions in that manner, after renaming the folders i usually restart the computer to clean out any lingering memory.... then start the meta 9.... i have never put my finger on it but belive its memory related conflicts.... so restart.....

It can show the grahics.   is that saying your 9.0 is now showing the graphics but meta itself crashes.... if so , crashes while doing what....

one thing i'd try would be to leave the folders named equis8.0 , equis90 , and also rename your 'metastock data' folder 'metastock data old'.... restart.... then do a complete reinstall of meta 9 from the cd.....  reinstalling is almost a cureall.....

you will be able import all your custom indicators and such.... it sounds like you handy with folders , it thats the case you likely know its far easier to just copy and paste the proper folders into your newly installed meta9....... that was the point of my question a couple posts back, are you comfortable going into your metastock folder and renaming a file if need be..... h

well, I have restarted the computer

Yes, MS 9.0 can show the graphics orso as my brower allowing active contents.  Strange!   MS 9.0  crashes  a few times a day  when updating realtime  on the Metastock File Server.  It utilize almost 100% CPU rate making the computer hang up. 

one thing i'd try would be to leave the folders named equis8.0 , equis90 , and also rename your 'metastock data' folder 'metastock data old'.... restart.... then do a complete reinstall of meta 9 from the cd.....  reinstalling is almost a cureall.....

I will try it later...

Well, I have just started on this and need to learn more.  I have not tried to just copy and paste folders (as I don't know where the indicators / Testers  are stored .... knowing that there are folders called Explore and Experts that may store the formulae).  I just use the stupid way to explore and then imports those formulae.

One thing I am thinking of now.  Is there any software that can monitor or record what files have been added into the folder of Equis, System32 when installing MS.  I still think that my MS 9.0 installation is leacking of a file(s) somewhere due to unknown reason.   This lead to unproper display of the graphics.  Installing MS  8.0 may have fill up the  error somewhere.  Therefore, MS 9.0 can display graphics even after rebooted.  You know what I mean.

Bullstock

 

hey bullstock.... not familar with any software to monitor files myself but possibly there is something... you could look in the equis folder and get a rough idea of what was installed..... here brief explanation of the  metastock folder common contents,  run mouse over item for description....

no clue on the crashes, reckon its a expert attached or something......h

Hi Hayseed / Pyradius,

I now suspect the cause of this error could be another issue.  I have installed MS 9.0 into another harddisk in which the error also happens. 

Explain it in more details as I have not.  When I click the Console Summary (I use IE 6.0 as my browser), it prompts to a security message (same as Hayseed's captured image) asking if allowing the active content.  Clicked yes, it doesn't show the Security Warning (Allowing active such as script and Active X......) as shown in Hayseed's captured image.  Then, it doesn't show the graphics.

After I switched back to use the previous harddisk (installed with MS 9.0 and then MS 8.0 that I have said that it can show the grapphics) to boot up and do the same thing on the Equis folder (MS 9.0).  It shows the Security Warning, clicked yes, it shows the graphics.  With this harddisk booted, strangely, I use the explore to click the other console summary, that it can't show the graphics with itself to boot up, located in the other harddisk.   It  can display the graphics.

I now suspect that inability to show the graphics may relate to the wrong settings of IE6 that has not prompted to the Security Warning as said.

Can you or anyone help me in fxing it?

Bullstock

hey bullstock.... the ie settings for active content or located under tools on the top bar of this page....

tools -> internet options -> advanced -> scroll down to active content and check the proper box....

all that  really does is  allow the content without going thru the permission warning step....

i've had no experience installing meta on a stand alone hard drive, so limted on help there..... i would have thought meta would show the graph in the  system tester manner  irregardless of those settings... interesting.....  

possibly   the script below is not loading.... ? .....h

Hi Hayseed,

Well, that is the error message pointing to.   When I click Enhanced Tester, it prompts to "Just-In-Time debugger", clicked yes to select it, it said "Set into Remote Procedure Call", "Choose the program types that you want to debug" (with Script ticked), clicked OK.  The Microsoft Visual Studio  Debugger opens pointing to line with word started with ".Environment......."

Mine settings are ".Add 46., ........... .Add 53., ........  .Add 1., ......"  They are different to yours.   Would these be the problem??

Also, I want to see the settings (with both MS 9.0 & MS 8.0 installed and MS can show the graphics) that the MS is working to show the graphics.  How can I open the file (which file?)?

regards,

Bullstock

Hayseed,

Could you advise what software you use and open which file in order to see the to open the following?

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript" for="window" event="onload" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"><!--

Bullstock

hey bullstock.... the difference in the numbers, yours vs mine, is of no consequence.... thats just reporting how much free space you have , how much is being used and how much is being used for simulation results...  so my hard drive has 70% free space and yours has 46%.... 

i didn't use any software to see the script.... just right click on the page and select view source.... you'll see the html code, or at least the code the page designers lets you see....

 

but you might have hit on the problem..... meta is reporting the values supposedly at those address 's you see , &H6600CC and such..... if meta is on one  drive and the os , ms windows, is on another the information might not be available at that address.... perhaps its the external hard drive causing confusion..... maybe....h
