WhiteScreen

[ligi]

Just got a whitescreen with akasha:

looks like the UI froze - AFAIR after I clicked on the transactions log icon this is in the console:

Which sync method did you use normal or light?

[ligi]

TBH I am not 100% sure anymore - I remember it asked me when setting up. But now I do not find it in the settings to check what I did choose at the time.I do not see it n app preferences or user settings.

If I would guess I would say LES with p=0.85

[kenshyx]

There is a problem with contract events on LES :/. Can you try with a normal sync? Thanks!

[ligi]

where is the settings-file for this? Or is it somewhere in the UI and I am just too blind? Also as it is not reproducible I cannot really "try with a normal sync" - otherwise it works good - was just a one-off so far - thought I still report it.

[kenshyx]

You're right we don't have an option for this to modify :man_facepalming: . You have to go to 'Help' -> Clear Cache and Reset App Data. After that restart the app and the first time setup options should be available

[ligi]

Thanks. Does reset app data clear my account? Is anything lost and not recoverable when the only thing I did to backup is Backup keys? Kind of already a little bit attached to the account ..) Btw. will we have to start from 0 when going Beta->Release?

[kenshyx]

Reset app data just clears all the local dbs from electron which contain logs and transaction history.

will we have to start from 0 when going Beta->Release?

We will definitely archive and migrate good content from beta -> release

Even I got the same white screen when I clicked on the transaction log icon. I had to force quit Akasha and start it again to get it back to a normal state. I did the normal sync.
