RE: [ECS] Problem with latest beta and TVL Mark Sekelsky Fri, 22 Dec 2000 10:06:04 -0600

I have cleared the browser cache and tried this on three separate PCs
including the one the ECS resides on. The error is still the same.
I click on my shortcut to ECS Web (http://192.168.1.1:3000/home.htm on one
PC)
This takes me to the "main" ECS page.
I click on "TV-Guide"
TV-Guide is generated.
I click on a TV show.
After a second or two this error appears in the status line (drop down box
towards the top) of the TV-Guide window Bad cmd: "ITEM_SET"
After a few seconds I hear the windows error beep and the following error
message shows in ECS status line: SCK_BF rx tmo0 (rxsz=16) (TCP_API_SRV)

The error appears to be in the web stuff as none of the TVL related events
(i.e. TV-Chan Monitor) even get accessed.  The ONLY thing I have done is
load the beta (and make the needed changes to ecs.cfg).

Hi Mark,
This implies an OLD class is being used.
Clear cache on your browser and restart it.
I assume that you are using the TV web page
(it's critical that you be VERY specific in your descriptions).
