Datagram.Message text is corrupted

[jdlaw75]

I have a WindowsService which broadcasts Log mesages to a visual display application on the same machine, using XDMessaging (Compatability version).

A typical message could be 'Timer period changed to 60s', but the received text at the Listener will be something like 'AAEAAAD/////AQAAAAAAAAAGAQAAABJMT0d8b1RpbWVyLkVsYXBzZWQLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA=='

I have used the same technique between a WindowsService and desktop application on another server successfully, so am quite sure my code is Ok.

Any thoughts out there?

I have come to the conclusion that there should be a PrivateKey recorded somewhere, which has gone missing.

If this is the case, can anyone help me in retrieving it.

I would re-install XDMessaging.Lite but Package Manager is crashing on this server.!
