Impossible to re-open OPENLP version 2.4.6 after installing 2.9.2

Pji

Hello,

We tried to use the last beta, but it was crashing really bad for us. So we also tried to revert to hold version, but now getting this error below... please your help recovering old and cleaning new version will be appreciated.

Traceback (most recent call last):

@Pji Please tell us you made a backup of your data and settings files! Both get changed during the upgrade process when loading 2.9.2. When you remove 2.9.2 sometimes not everything gets removed.

What OS are you running? The process is the same, but locations can change between different Operating Systems.

@Pji Also, if you still have the Traceback or log file from 2.9.2 that would help us fix the next version. It's troubling to hear you had so much difficulty with 2.9.2, it is supposed to be somewhat stable.

JohnM and ninjakiwi ... thank you for answering.

Yes, saved the Data.. at least I think so. Because more than 40 error windows were popping up while trying to export settings prior upgrade.

This is our Mac config

and output for OpenLP

The Log from 2.9.2 ... not sure. Things were so much screwed up that I tried to do a "Command + Z" to undo the quickest possible the changes, but Helas! it was too late. Though it was deleted, yet could not open the previous version.

Thanks

Pro Presenter is a monster, but it did teach me a few things! Can you

and see

a file exists? The location is /Users/<user>/Library/Preferences/org.openlp.OpenLP.plist this should have been removed, but if it is still there removing it may help....too little and too late we know....just wondering!

Pji

THANK YOU johnM

yes the file was still there.

I have removed it... it's working back now... :-(

JohnM

@Pji Glad we could help!
