Huge error string on fresh install #857

Open andyrings opened 3 years ago

andyrings commented 3 years ago

Hello,

I've got a completely clean and fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04LTS and also a clean install of OpenJRE and Xowa. With 100 percent consistency, when I attempt to interact with items in Download Central, such as downloading the English Wikipedia images, I get this popping up. I had to take screen shots as the text is not selectable. Screenshot from 2021-10-22 09-35-21 Screenshot from 2021-10-22 09-35-43 Screenshot from 2021-10-22 09-35-46

It seems I read somewhere in Github that Download Central is no longer working. Try downloading outside of Xowa. See https://archive.org/download/Xowa_enwiki_2020-08 and https://archive.org/download/Xowa_enwiki_latest After downloaded & unzipped, place all your files into ...\Xowa\wiki\en.wikipedia.org\ Restart Xowa. For screenshots see issue #844 where I helped, someone with a similar need.
