#42 0.0.98 Cannot start, hangs
Download and unpacked, opened in fresh Gambas 2 install, in the IDE, then pressed "Start" to run the program.
I get messages:
- Info: No Language set (click away - ok)
- Info: Complete settings before connecting to the database (freezes and is overlayed by the next box:)
- Error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)
This last box doesn't react on 'ok' click
The editor positions on line 198 in FMain:
MData.$hConData.Open()
After a while:
The window "Employear" is not responding. It belongs to the application employear (Process ID = 7090, hostname = localhost).
Do you wish to terminate the application process including all of its child windows?
Any unsaved data will be lost.
But I can also press "stop" in the Gambas IDE.
Discussion
Will be fixed in the next version.
Workaround:
- put TRY on begin of line 197, then the program opens with a normal blank screen. Then go to tools, configure and give the database details.
