program crashing after auto update to latest version

Tue Feb 12, 2019 12:21 pm

I open the database and have auto update checked; after it updated to the latest version any attempt to add a movie causes the error "Coollector Movie Database has encountered an error and will now close. I am not able to do anything. Cannot add any movie due to this error happens every time. Please advise. Thanks

Please detail precisely what actions you're doing (what you click, etc...) so I can try to reproduce on my computer. Do you have a Mac or a PC?

I have a PC. I choose movie title search; put in the name of the movie; find the correct one I own by bar code; select it; and then select add title. When I click on add title is when I get the error message.

Ok.

Do you mean in the "existing videos" box?

Do you mean "Add as owned"?

If that's how you do it, I have no problem on my computer. Maybe there's a problem with your coollection file. Please send me your coollection file so I can test it on my computer.

How to find your coollection file: https://www.coollector.com/help.html#coollection

Yes, I am referring to Add as owned. I have sent you an email with my database file.

Good news: I've finally been able to reproduce the crash.

Another good news: your coollection file isn't corrupted.

I'm working on a fix, I'll tell you when it's ready.

Sorry, I have no idea. I have only fixed the bug. It's working fine on my computer. Maybe a problem with your antivirus.

In a couple of days, I will release the new version. It's probably better if you wait for it.

If you need the old Coollector.exe, I've put it back on the server:

I got it working now with the new .exe that you posted. Found out that I was trying to use the old shortcut to access the database. Deleted previous shortcut and .exe and now it works. Thanks for your help. This database is always awesome!! Keep up the good work.
