From Mystic logs, I see that the arefix message is reconginized and

similar to the below logging

Has anyone experieinced something similar?

Yes, with my own Mystic A46. I just thought it was a contamination from my current situation, with Mystic not being the primary receiving agent as it's aligned _behind_ a regular tosser.

Just an FYI... I've been working with g00r00 on this bug which he's just fixed. Will be available in Mystic a48.

What triggered the bug? And why did OpenXP trigger it and other software doesn't?

Not entirely sure but g00r00 indicated that there were some changes made
in a46 to packet handling, particularly to the areafix processor. His
guess, before the bug was fixed, that is was probably a memory leak in the code.

Excellent! I've had a hankering for A47 for the longest time. ;) I haven't seen the release announcement yet.

Cheers,
Paul.

Excited to say that OpenXP is again... working as expected!

g00r00 has actually fixed the bug and compiled it into the a47 pre-alpha.
If you are willing to install a pre-alpha, you can pick it up at the below URL. I updated this morening and confirmed that both areafix and filefix requests are now working again :)

Good luck

Way cool. Thanks. I used up all my luck already by updating through five versions in an afternoon, once. Since then I have toyed with a pre-alpha. That's the extent of my luck, I'm thinking. No more.

Good luck

Gracias. Be well.

Cheers,
Paul.
