crash on startup of OCPN Draw 1.8.52.0 with OpenCPN 5.10.2-0

[gospo24]

Hi there,
OpenCPN 5.10.2-0 with OCPN Draw 1.8.46 is working properly (PC with OCPN Draw not updated to 1.8.52.0).

2nd PC: OpenCPN 5.10.2-0 with OCPN Draw updated to 1.8.52.0 crashes on launch. Deleting OCPN Draw 1.8.52.0 (with all plugins deactivated on launching) "resolves" the issue: no crash, but also no OCPN Draw available :-(

Any ideas? Many thanks

Can you please provide the OpenCPN.log file and the OpenCPN.conf/cfg file for the instance that is crashing. Also, what platform are you doing this on?

Hi,
the crash already occours when installing OCPN Draw 1.8.52.0 via the plug-in manager of OpenCPN.
System here is Windows 11, version 23H2 - with all quality updates to date.
On crahsing, OpenCPN displays a small window saying "Collecting information about the problem" and listing several lines "Dumping info for thread #####". Hope this helps, thank you.

openCPN 5.10.2 crashes on Android 14 also then try to show the plugin tab, the plugin OCPN Draw 1.8.52.0 is just installed and not actived. No chance to remove it; must wipe all data of the app to bring it back to work. Galaxy Tab A7 lite.
See Link

OCPN Draw 1.8.48.0 did work on openCPN 5.8.2.

It would appear that you are using a locale of de_DE. Would you mind changing to en_US and see if OCPN Draw still crashes? I have it installed now on a Win 11 machine with en_US and it is working fine. I did fix a problem when the language was changed from en_US to anything else when OCPN was running due to the icons being double loaded. I thought I had fixed that.

I have switched languages on my test system and it seems to work OK. Was this a clean install of OCPN Draw or an upgrade?

I am trying to identify what may be going wrong on the Win 11 system as that is easier to work with. If I find anything to fix I will put out a new version which will automatically be built for Android which you can then test to see if the problem is fixed there.

There was a crash in OCPN Draw when changing languages which 1.8.52 fixes. I installed 1.8.46 and changed language and OCPN crashed. It did restart OK. I then updated to 1.8.52 and could change languages without problems. There was a work around for the crash which was to disable OCPN Draw, restart OCPN, change language, then re-enable OCPN Draw. This seemed to work for the person who reported it.

Yes, I use de_DE. And Draw was upgraded, not newly installed. I am travelling right now. I will do testing with en_US on Wednesday. jongough ***@***.***> schrieb am Mo., 14. Okt. 2024, 09:24:

Hello,
OCPN 5.10.2 crashe since ODRAW 1.8.50 with locale fr_FR. Workaround ( change locale to en_US ) don't work for my computer ;-(
ODRAW 1.8.49.1 is ok.
Many thanks
Stéphane

The work around is to disable, and uninstall the older version of OD. Restart OCPN and re-install OD. That should work.

It is changing the language that causes the issue not the language itself. The reason I am asking for en_US to be used is that is the default language for OCPN and may help to narrow down the crash location.
