Put URL stopped working

Post by kolia » Thu Oct 15, 2015 8:22 am

Hello,
Of a sudden, on my Windows PC, Put URL no matter what stopped working. Compiled applications that were working stopped working. Same issue under LC dev environment. It returns an empty string. It is not a network issue, since I can access any URL with a regular navigtor. I even reinstalled LC 7.1 CE. Very very strange. On the same LAN it works under MAC OS X, iOS and Android. Any idea?
Thank you
Nicolas

What is a "regular navigator", and does that work with the specific URL in question?

All problems can be solved by identifying the differences between the working and non-working states. If the app hasn't changed, something else has.

Any Navigator (IE 11, Firefox, Google). http://www.google.fr or any other url don't give any result anymore. As said, even the previous build Windows app don't work anymore. So yes indeed something has changed, the question is what. To me, at this stage, I can't think to something else than LC itself. Or something on this PC that makes a specific LC library failing. I don't have the mean for the time being to test on another PC.

A while ago, at least a month, I installed Fiddler and this did not bother LC. For some reason, it made LC failing just yesterday. After uninstalling LC is working again.
