Software crashing every time I open #1247

Closed mcgratta144 closed 6 months ago

mcgratta144 commented 6 months ago

Issue: Opening it causes it to crash after 2 seconds. It doesn't give me a chance to work on it. Version: 0.16.0 Windows Operating System: Windows 10

can you get a log?

TheJackiMonster commented 6 months ago

I assume it crashes on your project when trying to open it on startup. But without log or debug output, there's little to be sure. You could try to open Manuskript from a command line interface or look for the log file.

Try deleting the file found at USERNAME/Software/manuskript/manuskript

mcgratta144 commented 6 months ago

Where do I find that?

TheShadowOfHassen commented 6 months ago

USERNAME should be your username.

I'm not sure how this issue never occured in previous versions but I have implemented a patch now. Once the pipeline is done, you can try the build from here: https://github.com/olivierkes/manuskript/actions/runs/7183624913

The issue seems to be that a project path was potentially inconsistent on Windows mixing forward slashes and backward slashes as path separators.
