1.8 error

Post by malc-c »

I've been getting a few errors of late, however although the red error "light" on the screen was flashing, it never generated an error report until today (which I've attached). Whilst it would be interesting to discover what the cause is, I see by the banner that V2 alpha is now available so might try installing that.

According to the stack, Cumulus was closing, so this applies: http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/FAQ#I_get_ ... se_Cumulus

If you don't think you were closing Cumulus, something on your system asked it to close.

You're using version 1.8.8, and I can't realistically support two release versions at the same time, so you might want to install 1.8.9.

The Cumulus 2 alpha is quite old now (but don't let that stop you having a play with it); I hope to have a new version out before too long. Except that the stupid impending Twitter problem in version 1 is taking up all of my time at the moment...

Thanks for the feedback. The error occurred when switching users. It had been open under my account, switched users to my wifes account as she wanted to use the PC for a few hours, and then I was switching back to my account after I returned from work.

I'll look at upgrading to 1.8.9 to see if that resolves the problem

It won't. The crash at closedown still occurs occasionally even with 1.8.9, but doesn't seem to cause any problems.
