SIGABRT when starting

1

It has been a while since I needed to access manager, and when I try to start the desktop app today, it goes in error. Below you can find the output. I hope this can be repaired as I am now afraid I just lost my accounting data.

it is most unlikely you have lost any data as that is kept in separate datafiles - one for each business.

What edition & version of Manager are you using?
What O/S are you using?
have you updated something between last using Manager and now?

I am running linux.

The only thing I can imagine which would have broken it is some update. It must have been a month or 2 since I last used Manager.

Just tried downloading the latest AppImage and running from that one. This starts the app. The business list which gets shown is just a list of hexadecimal names though. As soon as I click one of them, it crashes again and I get:

*** stack smashing detected ***: terminated
/tmp/.mount_Managefasiqy/AppRun: line 4:  7376 Aborted                 (core dumped) ${HERE}/opt/manager/ManagerDesktop

When you downloaded the new version of Manager, it would have updated, or tried to update, your data files to the new version.

If you updated from an old version, then this could fail and you should update first to an intermediate version before updating to the latest version.

Search the forum for info on updating old versions

Any idea of what your previous version of Manager was?

other linux users have reported similar issues. you could have responded in the same thread.

Sorry, I have searched, but have not found the other topic. I would have posted there if I had known.

Where can I download older versions of the AppImage?
