Allliance no longer works (crshes) on my Windows 7 pc #124

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Installation of the official release or the stable beta release. I used to 
have Alliance installed on this pc. 

If I install the official release, the first time it launches after 
installation, it pops up with the friends box asking me to connect etc. That 
goes fine, then after that, the program minimises to the taskbar and cannot be 
opened again. After shutting down the program, reopening etc, it launches to 
the taskbar, but the window will not display. 

I then uninstall that version of Alliance and install the latest stable beta 
release. Upon launching the stable beta, it crashes and gives the following 
error message attached below.

Please help me to get some version of Alliance working on my Windows 7 laptop 
(the stable beta works fine on my Windows Xp laptop on the same network). 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Official release and/or stable beta. Windows 7 Premium, latest updates. 

Please provide any additional information below.
- Network is sharing about 8Tb or so on average if size is a factor. 
- I did use to have Alliance installed on this pc. I thought I installed it, 
although perhaps a registry key remains somewhere and is causing problems???

Delete 'db' folder in alliance/data.

Where would that be located? I can't seem to find any such folder in my Program 
files, or in Users/App data/local (Windows 7)

In Win7 should be at
%AppData%\Alliance\data
(you can write this in explorer's address bar, but it's actually 
"Users\<you>\AppData\Roaming\Alliance\data")

Also make sure there is no data directory or portable file (would cause 
permission problems in Vista/7) in
%ProgramFiles%\Alliance

Just a note, I don't recommend to delete the SETTINGS.XML file, Make a backup 
first! You may edit the sharelist section to delete shared folders and then 
start over.

Also, sometimes helped to delete the contents of 
<your_downloads_folder>\_incomplete_ directory too

I checked the folowing path:
Users\<you>\AppData\Roaming\Alliance\data
and there is no "Alliance" folder and it drives me crasy to install the 
software again and again and to ask others for passwords...
is there any fix for this problem?? good versions of alliance and java maybe?

I never found it either. Done delete/uninstall everything and any reference to 
Alliance and reinstall and still had trouble. Ended up just using Alliance on 
my Windows Xp computer where it crashes less often. I was using the latest 
versions of Java and Alliance.
