data base updates

Tue Apr 17, 2012 3:50 pm

I have tried to update the data base 3 times. The download is ok, but a report is generated as being unable to open the files, error code 13. I am running the programme on an iMac using Lion.
Any help would be appreciated.

What version of Coollector are you using ? Have the updates worked before ?

We have several update servers. I have re-uploaded the files to all the servers, in case that one of them had a problem. Please give it another try.

I also got a (failed in GetSubBitmap0; So far, the programme crashes after about 20 entries being

Thanks for the information. The update process is different with the Mac App Store. I'll make some testing.

I'm very surprised by your bad experience. I'll try to reproduce those bugs on my computer.

At what moment do you get that message ? When you browse the database ? Or only when you add a video ?

What method do you use to enter your videos ? Do you make a barcode search ? Do you click the "ADD" button ? Do you add from an existing video ?

At what moment does it crash ? Is it immediatly after you click the "add as owned" button ?

And when you launch the program again, was your entry saved ? Or is it lost ?

No limits of course. We have users with thousands of videos.

Is it possible that you are suffering from this bug ?

http://www.coollector.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=895

Does it happen when you click while the video is not highlighted, and it doesn't crash if you make sure that it is highlighted ?

I have fixed this bug and the fix will be included with the next version of the program.

Indeed, I've been able to reproduce this bug by using a guest account on Lion.

It's the only case where this bug happens. This bug doesn't happen with an admin account, and it doesn't happen on Snow Leopard even with a guest account.

Please log in as administrator and tell me if the update goes fine.

I will modify the update process to work even with a guest account on Lion.

Thank you very much for your feedback !

Please help me to reproduce the other bugs, and I'll release a new version as soon as possible.

I have re-submitted the version 3.21.1 to the Mac App Store, to include all the bug fixes (except the GetSubBitmap0 error which I can't reproduce).

It's now one week that the status of 3.21.1 is "waiting for review". Hopefully it'll be reviewed and added soon.

My entry method is...type into search. select correct item. add as owned. close.
I have just added 8 entries and experienced a crash. This generated a crash report. The key phrases seem to be: EXC_BAD_ACCESS(SIGSEGV) and
KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS.
When I first opened the prog today, I clicked on 'Update'. Some 52K enties were downloaded, then error 13 was noted and the database failed to update.
I trust that this answers some of your queries.

When you do that, does it happen that you only use the keyboard and don't have to move the mouse ? Your mouse is still above the "add" button and you click it ? In that case, the "add" button isn't greyed as it should be, and the program will crash later. It's a bug that I've fixed, I'm just waiting for Apple to add the new version on the App Store.

Sorry, that's not enough information.

You're not using an admin account, are you ? If so, that's also a bug that I've fixed.

About the GetSubBitmap0 error, does it happen often ? And what are you doing when it happens ?

Hi, I have just changed the preferences on the .dat file. The programme updated properly. I think that I have been entering data faster than the programme could process, hence the lock up.
So at the moment, all seems to be well. Thank you for your assistance.
Regards.

I don't think it's possible to enter data too fast. Can't be the explanation :?
