Critical Error Upon Launching After Initial Installation #66

Closed brittonica closed 3 months ago

brittonica commented 3 months ago

Issue: Upon initial installation of the app, I received a critical error message after attempting to open the program. Restart of Windows did not solve the issue. Message text follows:

It seems COMPASS has run into a critical error ("The invocation of the constructor on type 'COMPASS.Windows.MainWindow' that matches the specified binding constraints threw an exception.' Line number '13' and line position '5'.).

That is a little concerning. I'm at an event now so I can't look at it right away, I'll try check it out when I get home.

I got the same error, reading the log, in my case the problem was:

System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Users\vicen\AppData\Roaming\COMPASS\Collections'.

So I just created the Collections folder by hand, and it launched successfully.

That did the trick. Thank you!

Ok, that tells me what's wrong, should be an easy fix when I get home, and that also explains why it only happens on fresh installs. Thank you guys for letting me know.

Glad it was an easy solve. Wonderful product!

It's fixed now, sorry for the inconvenience. I'll investigate tomorrow why my tests didn't catch this. Thanks for the kind words 😄
