Two folks saying .11 wont start in Windows .. #4617

Closed derwin12 closed 3 weeks ago

derwin12 commented 3 weeks ago

The logo shows (atleast 1 user is dark mode) then quits. Not sure how to troubleshoot. Going to rollback to .10 and see if log shows anything.

(works fine for me btw). Daryl.

If you have someone that doesn't work on 11 do a package sequence on 10 and upload it

derwin12 commented 3 weeks ago

The package logs was from 10. I think two of them were on 10. I am on 10 without issue.

2024.10.zip This is a test sequences packaged from 2024.10 (Joe)

blun23 commented 3 weeks ago

I'm on the TestFlight on Mac and I am having issues saving a sequence. Beachball is just spinning after doing the latest update. Way longer than usual.

derwin12 commented 3 weeks ago

Duplicate #4618

geoffhoops commented 3 weeks ago

I am having the same problem with the new version .11. The logo flashes up briefly then nothing. the Scheduler and Scanner do exactly the same, nothing happens. Go back to version .10 and everything is fine. reinstall .11 and nothing happens again.

Downloaded and opened your sequence image

So if the crash is not specific to your show folder it is going to be down to settings or something else environmental. The only way to troubleshoot may be builds with additional debugging until we isolate the issue.

Looking at the log above in daryls post there is a lot that happens after that log message. In my log the first thing i see is a message about the download cache ... purging the download cache in .10 and re-upgrading to 11 may help ... but equally may not.

Folks having problems, could you verify that this nightly works No. 924 https://github.com/xLightsSequencer/xLights/actions/runs/9378451618 And this one does not.. No. 925 https://github.com/xLightsSequencer/xLights/actions/runs/9395371749

AzGilrock commented 3 weeks ago

Even if it appears that commit is where it broke I can't see how its that code that broke it. It makes me think its more likely to be a case where there's bad code somewhere else that stomps on something and this change just shifted around the code that gets stomped on into something that has a worse reaction. If it really was this code the only thing that seems possible is the creation of the canvas object failed and its a null pointer. Could add a null check to this just to test but again adding the null check could potentially shift other code around and make us think its fixed when all we did was shift where a bad pointer is writing.

derwin12 commented 3 weeks ago

Agree ,.. but need to start somewhere. Ideally we get a second or third confirmation on these commits. Then put in some debugging and track it down.

derwin12 commented 3 weeks ago

Gil - is your code blocks older? Curious that when I just open the mhpanel, it updated with the following changes. Could wxWindowID vs long be an issue? (we dont get a core dump though)

AzGilrock commented 3 weeks ago

Yeah its highly possible my CodeBlocks is older. There's not really any announcement when one of the guys changes the version so its easy to be behind until a problem reveals itself. I seem to remember running version 16.

924 worked
925 same as 2024.11 just flash startup screen

computergeek1507 commented 3 weeks ago

924 was build using the 20240511 Windows github action image, which used the VS2022 17.9 MSBuild compiler. 925 used the newer 20240603 Windows github action image, which used the VS2022 17.10 MSBuild compiler. Maybe a optimization bug in VS2022 17.10. If Keith used 17.10 his release may have the same issue.
