SyncTrayzor can't start Syncthing
WhiteSp1rit opened this issue · 6 comments
SyncTrayzor portable x64 version 1.1.29
Syncthing v1.27.0
OS: Windows 7 SP1 Ultimate
Syncthing by itself when started directly works with no issues.
SyncTrayzor launches, but when I click "Start Syncthing", it will fail to launch it, with "Syncthing stopped" status.

this is repeated on each start attempt
Syncthing is no longer compatible with Windows 7. The last version that works is Syncthing v1.27.0. If you want to continue using it, you will need to manually downgrade by overwriting the syncthing.exe binary, and then disable automatic upgrades.

You didn't read the post then? I already wrote that Syncthing by itself runs fine with no issues. Already using v1.27.0
auto-upgrades are disabled.
And I am running Syncthing from the SyncTrayzor portable folder, so there is no situation where SyncTrayzor might be launching a different version.
I also checked that Syncthing process would not be running already prior to SyncTrayzor launch.
The crash message is exactly the same as in syncthing/syncthing#9282, which means that this is the same Syncthing problem being unable to run on Windows 7, not something caused by SyncTrayzor. I believe SyncTrayzor by default tries to upgrade Syncthing to the newest version immediately at launch, which then likely leads to the crash.

re-iterating - Syncthing is running with no issues. If I start it myself. Folders sync, everything works. Only SyncTrayzor can't start it.

I already said that I turned off autoupdate. Right now the version of Syncthing is the one I stated, and according to logs SyncTrayzor does not try to update it.

Please specify how exactly you have disabled automatic upgrades. There are multiple ways to do it, and something clearly isn't working, at least in combination with SyncTrayzor.
This specific crash error can only be encountered when running Syncthing v1.27.1 and newer, so there must either be an upgrade attempt going on at some point, or possibly yet another, newer Syncthing binary present in a different location that SyncTrayzor tries to start.
Also, could you test what happens if you try to start SyncTrayzor with Internet connection disabled in the OS?
or possibly yet another, newer Syncthing binary present in a different location that SyncTrayzor tries to start.
Yeah that turned out to be the case, as I misunderstood which file SyncTrayzor is trying to launch.
In SyncTrayzor portable archive, there is a syncthing.exe at the root and that is what I've replaced and then launched manually.
Turns out SyncTrayzor just ignores it, and creates a new "data" folder where it launches a different copy of syncthing from.
Very confusing behaviour. And it leaves the original syncthing.exe at the root folder, despite not using it.
After I replaced the syncthing.exe in the data folder everything is working now, so this issue can be closed.
