How to send a message even when receiver is offline?

Armani Mayert:

Is it possible to send a message to someone who has their PC off or asleep and when it is turned back on they can read the message?

Gabe Dare:

This messenger doesn't support this option. Some others do. Please check https://messenger.softros.com

LAN Messenger command line

Lori Lesch:



hello, is it possible to send messages to LAN Messenger from command line?



Emelie Rosenbaum:


Could you be more specific please, do you mean can you send another user messages or do you wish to send commands to LAN messenger?

Thanks


Kylie Conn:

Sorry to hijack this somewhat, but perhaps I can clarify.

We would like to automate sending messages from another process.

For example, using an external UI to send pre-fabricated messages via LAN messenger. A receptionist doesn't want to type the same message every day to different people, so she has a button that automatically sends the message.

/usr/bin/lan-messenger "office3" "Your package has arrived"

(Send the message "your package has arrived" to the computer named "office3")

LAN messenger missing clients



Marvin Witting:

I have noticed since our workstations have been upgrading to Windows 10 Creators Edition, LAN Messenger has been slow to bring up the Contacts List and is also missing some contacts. Does this have to do with the nixing of SMB 1.0? My subnet is 192.168.111.0/24 and the default multicast address is set to 239.255.100.100 TCP/UDP port 50000. 

Thanks for any help.

LAN messenger Silent/Remote Installation

Mohammad Dooley:

Hi!
Is there a way to install this software remotely with no interaction from the end user? I am using EMCO to deploy software.  Thanks for your Help!



Bertha Ritchie

USSF shows that it's a regular NSIS installer & detected /S switch. (Check also.)
We chose to deploy via GPP conditional file copy + public desktop shortcut + initial user %appdata% .ini file to silence it a little:
[SystemTray]
SingleClickTray=true
AllowMinimize=true
MinimizeMsg=false
SysTrayMsg=false

[Locale]
Language=ru_RU

[SoundEvents]
1\Event=2
2\Event=0
3\Event=0
4\Event=2
5\Event=2
6\Event=2
size=6

Lan Messenger Application Error

Matt:



When I launch Lan Messenger, I get an Application error: The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0150002). Click OK to terminate the application. Any ideas why this is happening? I have several other computers that are working fine. Thanks!
Benita J. Decamp:
Does it happen on just one computer? How often does this occur?
ginobuonpanino:
It happens even in my pcs (2 pc mounting windows xp pro) ?
Benita J. Decamp:
Does it occur randomly? Or does it always occur when you do something specific? Please list the steps you did when you got this error.

Tahmaseeb:

It doesn't work in Windows 10, i have installed it in windows 7 and its working fine. but i couldn't run it in any of the XP pro mounted windows. any fix will be appreciated.
Benita J. Decamp:
Could you send me the application logs? Next time the app crashes, go to "%LocalAppData%\LAN Messenger\LAN Messenger\logs" folder and get the five latest files and send them to me. This will help me diagnose the issue.

Tahmaseeb:

well, i checked the log folder you told me about, it was empty. for all the Windows XP Pro i installed it on the same thing, every time i try to start the application this is the error i get
The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0150002). Click OK to terminate the application.
Claude W:

I solved this problem by downloading the previous version lmc-1.2.10-win32.exe , from where are the old files.--


EspaƱol/ Spanish: Yo solucione este problema descargando la version anterior a la nueva, la lmc-1.2.10-win32.exe desde la pagina donde estan los archivos de LMC anteriores, el problema me dio solo a instalar la nueva version en el XP sp2 en una placa ECS con procesador AMD. Anteriormente instale en otras PCs con XP y no tuvieron ese problema. Inclusive instale en W7 tampoco me dio error.

Suerte..
Benita J. Decamp:
Hmm, that's interesting from a technical point of view. Version 1.2.10 and earlier used certain libraries provided by Microsoft, whereas newer versions use open source libraries. Perhaps they have some incompatibility with Windows 10. This gives me a new direction to investigate.
Harry:
The solution just install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 or 2010 Redistributable.
That's its.
