RDM has stopped working Windows Server 2008 64BIT

Hi,
Embedded Putty is a kind of hack, can you check the application log and see if there is something that can help me. it's located in the Help menu.

Thank you

Have you tried to run RDM in compatibility mode ?

When I open the application log it is blank. This is version 5.6.0.14. running on Windows Server 2008 R2 64BIT as a terminal server. I have tried this in compatibility mode, but I receive the same errors. If Putty cannot be used can another SSH client be used?

Thanks,
Larry

Hi,
For now, except the external mode, I have no other suggestion, I will try eventually to find another SSH library.

This is the events from the application log.

Unfortunately, the log is not related to your error. I will try to do more test later, but for now I have no solution. Putty was not designed to be embedded, it's a kind of hack and maybe in 64 bits, it's does not work well.

Hi,
maybe you can try this 64 bits version of Putty:

Just wanted to let you know this is not limited to Putty. I have tried to use the Command Prompt along with OpenSSH, the Command Prompt with PowerShell. Whenever we try to open any of these applications embedded, after they close RDM crashes. Yet in this case if they are opened external there is no error at all. This would be a solution if Putty cannot work. And these application are built into Windows with the exception of OpenSSH which is just called to open inside of the Command Prompt or Powershell. It would seem if you could make PowerShell work you would have a very powerful application. Just passing along some information. We really want this application to work which is why I have been experimenting. Here is the current application log.

Thanks,
Larry

Hi,
Thank you for the information, supporting Powershell is already on my list.

I will continue to enhance the application, I really appreciate all the feedback you gave.
