TRIGGERcmd not starting at boot
-
Thanks @trinib, and thank you for reporting the problem. I should be able to reproduce it and fix it in the next version. I thought I had it fixed but apparently not.
EDIT: I confirmed if the agent starts and can't access the Internet, it closes. It should keep trying to connect, so I'll fix this soon.
EDIT2: Actually, when I went to fix this I found that the agent does start, but it doesn't show the tray icon until the Internet connects. Fortunately that's a smaller problem, but I think it should show the icon with or without Internet. I'll work on that for next the agent version.

@Russ yea i left out that some triggercmd services shows its running but no tray icon. Reconnecting to internet never get service to get triggercmd to become online unless i force close services after connecting to internet ofc.
-
@trinib, I just released version 1.0.47 for Windows that will show the icon with a "Waiting for internet" message until the Internet is connected, then it will show the full tray icon menu.
Would you mind testing it? I tested it and it seems to work well.

@Russ it looks like its not at startup the problem only occurs for me cause. When i close all services with no internet and start triggercmd again and shows tray with "waiting for internet" and then I connect to internet(with and without VPN), it still had issue. It just needs internet for me for it to start up properly. I tried setting the main exe and the demon exe as admin and no luck.
In short if no internet at startup, triggercmd does not start properly. I don't know if something else can cause a conflict at startup&no-internet with triggercmd. Really weird.
Startup with no internet - issue
After startup issue, connect to internet - still issue
Startup with internet - works
After startup issue, I force close and restart with internet - works -
@Russ maybe try to find a way to restart (like upgrade) when detect internet. Use ping ideology, send a small data packet to the target host and wait for response, when do, restart service. IDK just an idea. sure AI could fix this easily

@trinib, I can't reproduce the problem with version 1.0.47. For me, within 10 seconds, it always transitions from "Waiting for internet" to the full menu after I re-enable wifi. It get the same result whether I rebooted without wifi or just closed and re-opened the agent without wifi.
I don't use the background service (aka the TRIGGERcmdAgent windows service). I'll enable that and do more testing, but that shouldn't effect the tray icon because it's only for the foreground agent.
FYI, the background service is not necessary unless you want to be able to run command while you're logged out. Most people don't need it.

@Russ yes most likely issue on my end with windows . I have some troubleshooting ideas ill test and see . thanks

Hello!
I formatted my computer, and when I tried to use TriggerCMD, it didn’t start automatically. I’ve tried all the solutions mentioned here, but nothing works.
-
@Fabrizio-Holstein, does it start if you run it manually?
If not, please try renaming your c:\Users\(your user)\.TRIGGERcmdData folder, and then re-run the triggercmd agent. It will prompt again for the token.
