panic: runtime error: index out of range

[marxistvegan]

This is an odd situation, but i can give the context. Some one added me to a group, then a second group, both have the same name, but clearly different groups, as they asked people to leave the first one and stay in the second one. I see this on the desktop Signal App. So when I went to look at whisperfish, the app was in a moment of stasis, so when i selected it from the overview, as it was running, it restarted and asked for the password. It accepts my password, shows the messages from folks but does not show the new group and then I get the following output in the command line.

Any ideas?

[marxistvegan]

FYI I ended up reinstalling the app and so far though no group test yet, it is not constantly crashing but will report more as i test it out.

[marxistvegan]

I do rely on this application a lot so for the time being I may have to use the apk version until this is resolved.

Here is the update after reinstalling it worked for a bit with individual messages, and though group messages worked on the desktop version they did not appear on whisperfish. I then received a message from a new individual whom I had not communicated with Signal and was shown in the desktop that there was an 'Error handling the incoming message' then the whisperfish crashed. I ran the debug mode and have the info below

[aebruno]

@marxistvegan Thanks for the detailed logs. I'll take a look and see if I can fix.

[marxistvegan]

@aebruno sorry to bug but any movement on this? I am using the apk version and it is killing my battery, anxious to get this back up :)

[frefell]

Just wanted to add, that I have the same problem. There is one contact from which I won't see any messages in group chats and writing directs messages leads to same (ish) error messages until reinstall.

I had this fixed in part after reinstall and then it came back again. At the moment I am using the apk.

[aebruno]

Apologies for the delay on this bug. I'm unable to reproduce which is making it more challenging to fix. Will keep you posted if I make any progress.

I am testing it out with my alternate number (i.e. google voice number) to see if I can recreate it again. I miss using whisperfish and hope other updates are coming too!

[omartijn]

I am now getting the same error as well. Is there anything I can do to help debug this error?
