Just come back to using Vassal after a few month absence
I was using 3.2.13 and it was working fine
But now it shuts down after about 60 secs whether a module is selected or not.
No error report is given
Tried Updating to 3.2.15 but this is behaving the same, I have tried updating Jave…no change

I have just tried disconnecting from the internet and turning off firewall …problem still apparent.
Tried running several times and checking the log file… still appears to be socket issues but different numbers are appearing each time I run the program ie 51156, 51171, 51181 and 51187.
Java version “1.8.0_31”
Java™ SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_31-b13)

We randomize the port we use, which is the explanation for seeing a
different port on each run.
It looks like the Module Manager is unable to connect to the socket over
which the Module Manager talks to itself. That could happen because
the OS is blocking it or because you have a stale or corrupt key file.
It’s safe to delete C:\Users<username>\AppData\Roaming\VASSAL\key when
VASSAL isn’t running. That would be the first thing I’d try.

I have already tried a clean install
made sure all roaming, regedit references to vassal were removed after an uninstall
Issue now resolved …had to completely reinstall laptop good job I had all the disks
Must have been some sort of registry clash …But needed Vassal

Glad to hear that you got it working. Nothing but VASSAL reads VASSAL’s
registry keys, so it’s unlikely to have been those. Java itself has a
history of being flaky on Windows—I’m not surprised that a completely
fresh install fixed the problem for you.
