Error msg from Performance monitor

[GreenAcres]

Here you go.

Can you make it where if you disable it in the ini file it does not check at all then?

Thanks

Thom,

There is something very wrong with your graphs. How are you showing Homeseer threads and modules twice? You are missing System Committed Memory and System Average CPU usage (which are the two that were causing the error).

Can I suggest that you start from scratch - download the latest from my site.

Delete all virtual devices and event(s) and replace the script and ini file. See if things start behaving better.

Ok Jon I deleted everything and re installed the script and evenn assigned it new house cade numbers:

Jon,

Did you miss my below post?

Thom,

As you can see, the problem values are not creating/updating the graphs. I'm afraid all you can do is disable the first three entries in the ini file to stop the errors.

As I said before, there is nothing wrong with the script. There is a problem on your Homeseer PC obtaining these values and I do not know the reason (I've searched the Internet on this). It is possible for Performance counters to be deleted but this would be most unusual. You (so far) are the only one having this issue.

At this time I have no other suggestions.

FWIW I managed to get the same error "Jon00_Perf - Error within Sub Main at block 2 (Category does not exist)" as above and found this old thread via Google.
In case it helps anyone else, the fix for me in XP was to re-enable Performance Logs & Alerts in Services, re-enable the 4 Perf* DLLs in Extensible Performance Counter and save the changes to the HT harddrive before rebooting. Got me quite worried for a minute. Serves me right for 'fiddling' with the system.
