socket error 10060 with swisslog 5.91a and LOTW

[dl7cx]

Hello,

I need help:

I changed my swisslog 5.8 into 5.91a and also changed the PC.

With TQSL I made all the certificates and it showed into the swisslog ok.

Password to go on LOTW is also ok.

BUT :

If i synchroniced with LOTW the message came: (win64 64):

Socket Fehler # 10060 Verbindungszeit überschritten.   (Socket error 10060 time over).

I switched off my antivirus but the same result... the old PC is working with the same antivirus GDATA.

Any ideas??? Many thanks for some help.

Hi Olaf,

As explained in the FAQ section of the website (http://www.swisslogforwindows.com/english/FAQ.htm) you have to add an exception to Swisslog in your firewall. Check if your antivirus implements a firewall or it's using Windows firewall. Even if your antivirus includes a firewall mostly when disabling your antivirus the firewall is not disabled. You have to check your antivirus documentation. But this error is because your firewall is blocking incoming/outgoing connections.

Hi Olaf,

Have you configured correctly Swisslog to synchronise with Lotw? First you have to create Stations in TQSL and match them with your My QTH in Swisslog. You have to set your certificate passwords in Swisslog as well.

Please go to the Swisslog help and read this chapter:

- QSL Bearbeitung - LOTW Unterstützung

LOTW synchronization works very well and your issue seems to come from a wrong setup. Read the Automatic mode of the LOTW synch which is easier and faster. You can skip to read the manual mode.

If you are using Windows Vista or higher in your new computer, did you followed the instructions given in the download section and the first screen of the Swislsog installer? That is: disabling UAC, restart and install ALWAYS as administrator. It's a MUST to do this in Swisslog and many other ham radio software. Please read this message I posted regarding this issue:

http://www.swisslogforwindows.com/forum/...hp?tid=205

If after reading and following all the above instructions you still have difficulties contact me again to arrange a remote session via Teamviewer to check what may happen. But please, first read and follow carefully all the installation steps and the LOTW setup instructions.
