Is there a 32bit Agent for Windows available?

And if so, will it run on WinXP.

@trigFox , I didn't build a 32bit Windows agent yet. I didn't think anyone wanted it, but if you do, I'll look into it.

@trigFox ,

I built a 32bit agent. Would you mind testing it for me? You can download it here.

This 32bit version works fine on my 64bit machine except:

• If I'd select "Update Agent" it would download the 64bit version. That's easy to fix though.
• When I tried "Install Background Service" it didn't work on my 64bit box, but that should be fixable too.

Please test installing the background service on your Windows XP box. I'll build an XP VM soon and try it myself too. If all goes well, I'll publish a 32bit version on the front page of this site.

Thanks @trigFox. I'm surprised people are still using WinXP.

@Russ
Thanks very much, I'm going to give this a try.
Unfortunately, I cannot upgrade that PC I need it for because in runs some industrial automation software (visualization) and upgrading it would be possibly expensive and time-consuming and I don't like touching perfectly running systems.

edit: Doesn't run on XP unfortunately.

@trigFox , thanks for testing. I now have an XP vm so I'll work on this.

@trigFox, I made it work on my Windows XP vm in a cmd window, so I'm confident I could make a non-GUI agent for Windows XP, like I did for Raspberry Pi. Are you interested in that?

If you're in a hurry, here's how you could do it now:

• Copy all subfolders except the node_modules folder from the C:\Users\(youruser)\AppData\Local\TRIGGERcmdAgent\app-1.0.13\resources\app folder on a working 64bit Windows machine to a folder on your Windows XP box.
• Install this version of node.js on your XP box: https://nodejs.org/dist/v0.12.4/node-v0.12.4-x86.msi
• Open the "Node.js command prompt".
• CD to your folder.
• Type this, and ignore the errors: npm install
• Type this: node src\agent.js --console
• Profit.

Now there's a better way to run the agent on 32bit Windows.
