Command Line problems

Nov 12, 2005 1 Replies

The X-10 commandline (ahcmd.exe) function has been un-reliable. About 1 time out of 10 it will puke out the following message and lock up:



"X10 ActiveHome Scripting Commandline has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."



I'm trying to implement something to run on an un-attended computer, so this ends up making the whole thing un-usable.



X-10 "support" gave me the usual response (none whatsoever). Are there any other options for command line control of the CM15A.



Thanks, Scott Kelley


You might try the x10 cm17 "firecracker" if it is just a one-way command. I've controlled it remotely using the apache webserver in a cgi setup. There are a couple of simple conmmandline applications available for controling the cm17.
