Updated to latest version (from I think previous latest version), and now it crashes as soon as it starts - before anything else happens a box pops up saying 'Coollector Movie Database has encountered an error and will now close' and then it opens the folder for the crash dump files, or whatever they are... (I'm running win 7 64bit)

Thanks,

I am working on it, as it happens to me too. I'm sorry that I hadn't noticed this bug before the release, but it's a very weird bug that happens only with the release version and doesn't happen from Visual Studio.

I'm doing my best to release a new version as quickly as possible, but this bug is very hard to debug.

ok, thanks Hector - don't suppose you have a link to the previous version in the meantime?

I have fixed the bug. Here is the corrected program:

http://www.coollector.com/Coollector.exe

I'm releasing a new version, but don't bother, you'll be up-to-date if you just replace the exe file.


I'm very sorry for this trouble, but it's very bad luck (I've had bad luck during the entire month :cry: )

No problem :) - but, sadly the file you've linked to there results in the same crashing behaviour...

Oh crap, then it's a different bug. :(

Just to make sure that it's not a download problem, when you right-click the file and select "properties", then "details", does it say version 3.24.9?

Yup, 3.24.9.0...

:worried:

I will create a debug version and you'll send me the crash dump. Please give me a few minutes.

Maybe the movie database didn't extract fine.

Before we try the crash dump, could you please try installing 2.24.9 (don't uninstall anything, just install):

installs apparently fine, but still crashes in the same way...

Ok, I prepare the debug version.

Here's the debug version:

When crashing, it should create 2 files. Please email me those 2 files at this address: hector at coollector dot com
