Ghost Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 As a small sidenote; For me it appeared like the codemeter update had hung it self, If it does that just wait, It can take a couple of minutes, Just as I was getting worried it finished updating 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithcorp Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Nils, an update. Still not working for me.Followed instructions, but didn't get prompted for a password. Selected Process Update etc, a progress bar starts and get a process failed message. In the CM log window (Event Viewer) it says "TCP/IP connection to Field Update Server is not available".Tried it with firewall off, reboot etc. Stick works fine and will run the sim. Maybe the update server is down?Any help appreciated.cheerssmith 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester_UK Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 In the CM log window (Event Viewer) it says "TCP/IP connection to Field Update Server is not available". I got that message a couple of times as well. Then I got something similar after putting the password in. Finally it worked (without asking for a password so I assume it's logging IP's when you request the upgrade).After it finally reported completing the update successfully I tried to start SBPro and got a CodeMeter API Error 23 message. Sorted this out by simply rebooting my PC. Working 100% now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Got the official esim mail about it today, tried a few times, everytime it ends with "Firmwareupgrade fehlgeschlagen" Hope it didn't change any existing setting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tankenator Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 I get an annoying password prompt each time i plug it in or reboot, but once the password is in it works fine now (post update) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted July 14, 2006 Author Members Share Posted July 14, 2006 You don't always have to enter a password - if you typed it in a short time before it may still be cached.It also seems that sometimes several attempts are required to perform the upgrade. What should happen after the password prompt is a period of less than a minute where the LED will be on, changing between red and green. Finally there will be a message box telling you that the upgrade was successful.If the password is wrong it will seemingly continue (without the LED flashing) and then the message box will tell you that the upgrade failed (but not give a detailed reason, like: Wrong password). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted July 14, 2006 Author Members Share Posted July 14, 2006 Not sure if there is an update server overload or something. Unfortunately the weekend has begun, so Wibu tech support will answer only after Monday. You may want to try onece or twice during tomorrow or sunday in case that the update server was just temporarily down (those of you who got the timeour message), afterwards try and contact Wibu support staff. There is nothing that I could tell you at this point beyound what we already announced. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Joe, Friday 12:30pm I just updated my CodeMeter stick, fast and with complete success, with a slight scare of a error 32 message, but a quick re-boot of system did the trick and all works fine. For any that might have a problem finding the update/site, do the following: 1. rt-clk on CodeMeter Icon in lower rt tasktray 2. select: view as window 3. select: process 4. select: update CM-Stick Firmware (wait till finished..lol) 5. reboot AND as Ssnake mentioned, LEAVE your CodeMeter stick IN before and after.. AND, as mentioned password that works if you have none is: CodeMeter, just like that. LS 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Did it that way, might be the syntax of writing codemeter is the key, but actually there should be a wrong password message, gonna try Never took the stick out since the day I installed SBProPE 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Heya, that worked: so make sure you write the (pass)word "CodeMeter" in that way (with capital C and M) if you have no other password. Ok thx for making me aware of this. (if it was a conn prob, go online during low trafic time j/k 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plummerx Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Updated ok, but a reboot and re-detection of the CM stick by windows was required. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithcorp Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Woo-hoo! Worked fine this morning. Password prompt came up and stick successfully updated. Huzzah!Only strange thing is, it's not possible to select Exit on the process window, or by right clicking the Codemeter icon in the taskbar... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Open Start=>Programs=>Codemeter and select Terminate Codemeter runtime sever, that worked for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart666 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 One thing to mention, just updated it and when loading SB Pro got an error message. Pulled out the dongle and plugged it in again and it works fine. One more thing to try if it doesnt seem to work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VegasGeorge Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 CodeMeter firmware update was successful. But, two scary moments (1) I got a "Not Responding" error message during the update process, and (2) I got an "Error 23" message when I first tried to use the CodeMeter after updating the firmware. I unplugged the stick and plugged it back in again. Then, everything was OK. The update process took a while, and the "Not Responding" message was quickly replaced by the "Finished" message. I don't know what that was all about. :roll: The "Error 23" was curred by removing then replacing the stick. What we really need is the ability to host LAN games with one stick. That would be a helpful update. :lol: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Androo Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Ssnake:If you changed your password, and forgot it, you deserve a little spanking from your mistress.Heh, heh, no comment... :twisted: Updated without a hitch- thanks for the "noob-proof" instructions, Ssnake.(And thanks also for the mention of the password case-sensitivity, TopKick, that would have got me for sure. :roll: ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-=Hawk=- Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Well i was finally able to update the firmware, but i discovered a problem between the Codemeter-Updater and the firewall Netlimiter 2 Pro. Netlimiter seems to block any connection attempts between the stick and the TCP/IP connection to the internet - Even if u deactivate the fw !! Only an uninstall has helped me - So if u use Netlimiter and also have problems - Uninstall is the best option Greetings Hawk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TankHunter Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Ok, I have a slight problemThe dongle works fine, makes the noise when I plug it in, makes it when I take it out, but no codemeter icon on the bar on the bottom right hand corner of the screen. I dont know why that is, but that is what is going on. So, any hints as to how to rectify the situation? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The5thHorseman Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 *Back from vacation*Add another successful upgrade to the list. Followed Ssnake's directions, entered CodeMaster as password (case sensitive), and waited out the apparent 'lock up' after entering the password. 60-90 seconds later, successful upgrade, no error messages.Thanks Ssnake. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ssnake Posted August 1, 2006 Author Members Share Posted August 1, 2006 ...you could have started the CodeMeter runtime through the program start menu without SB Pro PE - but if it works, so much the better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is always a plus to give myself a reason to play some SB Pro PE 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
