Littlenavmap LNM Crashes to Desktop

[merma25 0]

Installed LNM v 2.6.7 today for the first time and placed a shortcut on my desktop (W10 PC)
The LNM app crashes to desk top after about a minute of opening. Is there something I overlooked when downloading and installing this application?

Thanks in advance,

Ron M

This is most likely fixed with the next upcoming release (very soon).

Can you send me the log file per email: C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Temp\abarthel-little_navmap.log ?
Replace YOURUSERNAME with your login name.

It might help to remove or better rename the settings folder C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\ABarthel
But save the log file before.

Hello. LNM it's throwing me this error "Caught unknown exception in file ..\atools\src\gui\application.cpp line 85." and it crashes... is it the same? Thx 2.6.8

The problems is the download of PACOTS tracks. Something has changed on their site. I have to check. Maybe this will be fixed with their next update or I have to publish a hotfix. Have to see.

For now keep track downloads disabled. You can take your ini file (C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\ABarthel\little_navmap.ini), open it in a text editor and replace the line

Widget_actionRouteDownloadTracks=true

with

Widget_actionRouteDownloadTracks=false

This way you can keep all your settings.
Alternatively delete the file.

You can try to download tracks manually to check if the problem is solved on their site. But do not enable the download at startup.

Best regards,

Alex

It worked Alex. Thank you

I can confirm, it throws the same error when pressing "Download tracks". So, for now the best action is to keep away from downloading the tracks until it's solved. All my settings are safe btw.

 

Thank you kindly

Thank you for the confirmation, Johnny.

I'll probably have to release hotfix to get the tracks working again.
