Fatal Error OpenLP Returned -1

OpenLP upgrades the database containing things like your songs. When you open an older version of OpenLP, it will not be able to read the updated database.

OpenLP 2.4.6 should have offered to backup your files when you installed it. If you backed up the files, you can use the backup and go back to your older version. If you did not save a backup, then getting the newer version to work might be the easier option.

I would be happy to help with your issue in 2.4.6 if I can. Because of the language barrier, I don't quite understand what "the lyrics were on top of me" means. If you send a link to the form discussion you mentioned and perhaps a screenshot of the issue I should be able to help.

I think he means that the Main Screen appears on startup completely covering the service manager on a single monitor setup so that none of the service manager functions are accessable. My solution for this was to;

1. Remember what keypress I had assigned to the show desktop function.

2. Click anywhere on the main OpenLP display so OpenLP has the focus.

3. Press that key.

It would be better if on startup OpenLP knows it has a single monitor that it starts with "Show Desktop" true instead of "Show Presentation".

I have been dealing with this same issue for the past three weeks. Every time I try to open OpenLP, I get the same fatal error. I have tried uninstalling it, went through the System Edit and deleted or changed the name of each mention of OpenLP, tried reinstalling with a previous version. I just don't know what to do. The last two weeks, I have simply pulled up the songs in Word and dragged them over to the screen to be viewed. Tomorrow we are honoring the Day of the Christian Martyrs. from Open Doors with a video. I am at a loss as to how to restore our program. Can anyone help me?

I have had the same problem today.

Having seen where the configuration is stored in the windows registry, I had a look. One of the entries (media->players) had a value of "@Invalid()".

I deleted that single entry and the problem was resolved. OpenLP started up normally with all of my configuration except for the media player priority - which was easily reset.

Hi, I just had this issue myself and I have followed instructions above from other fellow members. However, it took me awhile to comprehend due to how it was written. Therefore, if you're an Windows user, try to follow these instructions:
1) Press Windows button and R on your keyboard. A search bar should appear.
2) There you need to type %appdata%\OpenLP and click enter or "OK"
3) Then OpenLP folder should appear (if you typed keyword correctly in point 2) with folder named as "data" or similar title. This should be so called 'configuration' folder.
4) If you able to see it, wonderful. Click right mouse button on that folder ->rename-> to something else. I myself renamed it into "rename data". I believe you can even delete it as once you run the program it should generate a new folder, but I myself just left it hanging there.
5) Once you rename it, try to run OpenLP. For me it worked and Sunday service was saved! Praise the Lord!

Thanks and may God bless you
