View 8 RepliesI am making a java chat server, and a guy was able to connect to it no problem (however, he logged off for the night before I ran into any problems, so I couldn't see what he did). Here is my code on the VB form:

I am working on a chat client and server, and so far it works well, but when I close the client, the server throws an exception because it continues to try to do processes on the disconnected client. I have tried adding clientSocket.Close() in various places throughout the client and server with no luck. Does someone know how to add the disconnect code to either the server or client with this code?Server:
Imports System.Net.Sockets
Imports System.Text
Module Module1

There are a series of web requests, database handling using php as well as using mysql connector. There are at most 5 timers in one window. some window has 3 or 2 timers as needed.Among some features there is a feature for chat. and I'm doing it with Remote mysql connection using mysql data connector.I'm not much familiar with VB.NET coding environment as well as with optimization issues. However made that app running with some problem, that is, when chatting, sometimes its not working smoothly sometimes stops for 4-5 secs then again responding. I'm not sure if this is happening because of timers. However a chat window has 2 timers of 1sec each.
View 2 RepliesI wrote a Socket Client which will send the Socket Server some data and get some response from Server. This process will be running once in every 2 seconds.
Now what I need to know is How we can identify the connection lost between Server and Client?
I need this to be implemented in the Client side. If there is no connection then Client should automatically close the connection. Once the connection with the server is available in the next attempt it should connect automatically.
So, in another related post, i got the chat to send to a java server, cool.Now, it's a matter of sending it back to VB.on the server side of things, (in java), I am using the following
JAVA
public static void sendback(String what2send) throws IOException {
ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(mySocket.getOutputStream());

I wrote a server for a tcp/ip chat program using the system.net.sockets class. When I run the program and the client tries to connect to it, there's an error and it won't work. I am positive that the issue isn't with the client, as I have made a connection with the client before.
Imports System.Net
Imports System.Net.Sockets
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1
Dim server As New TcpListener(IPAddress.Any, 60)
Dim client As New TcpClient

I am trying to use a COM dll referenced from a vb.net project. Everything works fine when I reference the interop inside the IDE but when I publish the file in bin folder on my server I get:
Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {A440BD76-CFE1-4D46-AB1F-15F238437A3D} failed due to the following error: 80040154.
I can't register the original dll with regsvr as the server is with a hosting provider and I thought the point of interops was to be able to use old COM dlls without having to register them
Multi-User Chat Program (Server & Client) with Main Server?
View 1 RepliesI made a simple TCP server (I've found the example on the web) in VB to receive data from about 40 TCP clients.The clients are not synchronized but sends data about every 18 minutes; the problem is sometimes several clients sends data at the same moment, so I can't receive data.I also made a second program that reads the data (server program writes data on a file, read from the second program) scheduled.
My question is this: I've seen on the web examples about Multithreaded Server Socket Program, so I suppose this could manage my 40 clients (but now the clients are syncronized and send data at the same time in client mode) or is better get data (I have a central client that asks data to all 40 devices in server mode)?
Second question: can I make a single program where I run both TCP client and TCP server at the same time?
I am trying to create a simple chat server over vb that can relay messages back and forth using an echo server. Could someone point me in the correct direction to begin?
View 3 RepliesI am working on the client-server on my application and I am unsure which one of those method that I should use for the chat server. When I tried this:
Dim port As Int32 = 13000
Dim localAddr As IPAddress = IPAddress.Parse("127.0.0.1")
server = New TcpListener(localAddr, port)[code].....
I found that both of these methods are the same, I can connect to the server when I use either of them. tell me which one of them is the easy way and which one of them that I should use to connect to the server, send message...etc?
I have been searching for days and months on youtube,google and everywhere else about how to create a Multi user chat system, where everybody can talk to each other all at once. Some people say Winsock is the way to go and others say TCP/IP is the way to go. I have little to no experience in either one of them. So if somebody can give me a really great turtioal or show me the guide lines on how to create a server and a client I would highly appreacite it. I am using Visual Basic 2008 express.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to write a program that has a server/listener program and then 2 client programs, the 2 client programs are supposed to be able to chat with each other. Can anyone point me in the right direction on this?
View 4 RepliesI made one client-server chat application using vb.net. I want to know how can i change the form/icon color when a client sends a message and vice versa.
for eg: like in yahoo messenger or msn messenger,etc, How i user knows when he receives an message.
I have been searching far and wide for knowledge regarding how to make a server program with a client program.Think like Msn ( Messenger ) You have the client and you send a message which is then send through the client to the server, and then to some other client (a friend might be ).I want to make a semilar program where ill make the server and the client myself, i just need a hint or two to get started.
View 1 RepliesI have been looking for a really detailed tut on how to use in a server to client chat room. I looked on google but they just post the script which helps alittle but I need a lot of detail to make a working chatroom.

View 4 RepliesI've been attempting to create a Chat client/server for a while and I found some good tutorials for Visual Basic Express 2008. But I would like my client to be able to disconnect and have the server acknowledge the fact (and send the same message that it does when someone connects) that a client disconnected.

I'm using sockets to connect to servers and for some strange reason I can't identify, the socket is taking several seconds (5 maybe 6) seconds to connect when using an IP whereas is instant when using a hostname. Here is my code to connect:[code...]
In the above code, server of course is a string. I've tested this with a friend and she's experiencing the same issue and I'd like to get around it as it's sort of annoying..While debugging GetHostEntry is the line that seems to take forever when using an IP.
i took this code from another example, it works fine but it a windows console application.i took the code into a windows form app but it looks like i have to change somethingto start, it says client is not defined, so what should i use?lient.startClient(clientSocket, Convert.ToString(counter))
Dim serverSocket As New TcpListener(8888)
Dim clientSocket As TcpClient
Dim counter As Integer

transfer this from a Console app to a WinForms app? I'm still new to this and I want to build on top of this once I get more acquainted with VB.net. I don't know if this may be helpful, but I'm using Visual Studio 2008 (not express).
The Server Code I Found Online:
Imports System.Net.Sockets
Imports System.Text
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Net

i'm creating an IRC server and I already have a few base classes complete like logging and Config. I was about to start with programming the socket class(es) when I realized that I have no idea how to make such a complicated socket system. I do not under any circumstance want to use any other code than my own since that would not help me learn sockets. I am familiar with a single connection socket system like most tutorials use.

I was wondering if its possible to create a chat that runs off of mysql and not a server?
View 4 Repliesi want to create a simple chat and server application but i dont know where to start in socket hope someone will help me to create the application.

Im using VB 2008 express but dw any code i get ill just use the tool 2008 has to put the code in 2008.Anyways what im trying to do is make a chat program for about 100-200.How can i get a server on my comp so i can update the list of usernames of passwords without updating the program? How can i get the program on there PC to check my server on my comp if there input is validate? How can i get several users into the chat?How can i get it to display there names when they join the chat and get it to disappear when they leave?
View 14 RepliesThe server connects, the clients connect, one client sends a message to the server, and the server broadcasts it to the other clients. But what I want to do now is to also have the server communicate with the clients. But when I click on the server form, it freezes, and I cant do nothing.
I think this is because of me not creating a thread for the communication(I saw this on another forum), but I dont know how to do that. I copied basically all the chat program code from a site, and I dont know much of sockets and what not.

View 2 RepliesI have google it but I couldn't find the answers. So basically I want to make a Client-Server chat. I just want to creating each server for the clients to entered the chat room with each different server, e.g: client 1 and client 2 entered chat server 1 (just a name of a room), client 3 and client 4 entered chat server 2 and so on. How I can do that?
