[4.6] Main window does not appear #88

Closed yozhic closed 1 year ago

yozhic commented 1 year ago

The main window does not appear when running version 4.6 on Mac OS 10.14.6 Mojave (Build 18G103).

The new 4.6 version was installed by updating over the previous 4.5 version.

Calling the Navigate → Home page menu item fails:

Uncaught Exception:
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'loadURL')
    at click (/Applications/Diogenes.app/Contents/Resources/app/main.js:571:26)
    at MenuItem.click (node:electron/js2c/browser_init:73:1908)
    at a._executeCommand (node:electron/js2c/browser_init:81:2453)

Calling the Navigate → Reload app menu item fails:

Uncaught Exception:
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'webContents')
    at click (/Applications/Diogenes.app/Contents/Resources/app/main.js:585:24)
    at MenuItem.click (node:electron/js2c/browser_init:73:1908)
    at a._executeCommand (node:electron/js2c/browser_init:81:2453)

Quit Diogenes command fails:

Uncaught Exception:
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, unlink '/Users/yozhic/Library/Application Support/Diogenes/diogenes-lock.json'

Previous version 4.5 works fine on Mac OS 10.14.6, with no errors.

Thanks for the prompt and helpful report! I tested the new version of Diogenes on two different Macbooks running Monterey before releasing it last night, and it works there. But I have pulled out my old Mac running High Sierra and I was able to reproduce this bug. It's the same problem as issue #89. I thought the JSON.pm module was ubiquitous in Perl distributions, but apparently it's a relatively recent addition. I'll work on fixing this today.

I've fixed this (I think) in version 4.6.1. Could you test it and let me know if it works now?

The program started, the basic functions work flawlessly, and everything is working fine at the moment. Thank you very much for your kindness and good help.
