RomRaider

I read the windows 7 thread and still cannot get the logger to connect. My laptop was stolen, and my new laptop is nearly identical yet I cannot seem to get it to work no matter what I do. Please help me.

Using win 7 64 bit here and all connects and works fine, a posting of error messages you get would help though...

No error messages other then "unable to send ecu init"

I realize it can work with 7, as I said I had it working before my laptop was stolen. Ecuflash works fine, learn view works fine but RR won't recognize the cable.

Tried running rr and ecuflash in xp mode, and still will not recognize any cord. Once again ecuflash worked fine.

What cable?
What version of RR?
What version of Java?
Have you loaded and pointed the editor to the latest editor defs and the logger to the logger defs?

2.0 cable, newest beta rr, newest beta ecuflash (but I tried older ones too) and the latest java as well. I haven't bothered with the editor yet, and I have pointed the logger to the defs, but it won't even try to connect.

Is your Java 64 or 32 bit?
Try the 32 bit version.

32 bit

For RomRaider, open the file "log4j.properties" found in the install directory in NotePad. Make sure the first line reads:
log4j.rootLogger=trace, stdout, file

Then delete the 'romraider.log' file also in the installation directory, try the Logger again.

Zip up the romraider.log after you close RR and post it.

To keep the log file clean set the first line of "log4j.properties" file back to:
log4j.rootLogger=info, stdout, file

here you go

Anybody have any ideas? I find myself without the ability to log my own vehicle after a couple years of having no trouble at all.

I don't think you set the log4J file to trace mode. There is very little info in the log you posted.
But from what I can see from it, RR logger is not getting any connection info from your computer. It's not finding the J2534 driver for your Openport2 nor any serial ports.

Make sure in the "log4j.properties" the first line reads:
log4j.rootLogger=trace, stdout, file

Delete the romraider.log and start things up again.

You could also try deleting the setting.xml file then reset you logger def location and your Log File Output locations.

What version of ECUFlash are you using.
Maybe also send the Comms Log of LV after a successful read.

Here another log, and as I said above, I have tried several versions of both romraider and ecuflash. I am currently on the newest betas of both. Ecuflash works fine, rr won't recognize the cable.

No change, did you try what I suggested about the settings.xml file?
Do you have an LV log?

I don't know what an LV is. I will try deleting the setting tomorrow, but I have tried several installs with no success. Wouldn't that do the same thing?
