[GLE-general] Problems with QGLE on windows 10

[Laurence A. <lau...@yo...>]

Hi,

I'm in the process of replacing some computers that were running windows 10
for some that are still on windows 10 but a lot more locked down.

Having installed gle (either the VC or the other version) and ghostscript
9.27, gle itself works (run from the command line or launched from, e.g.,
notepadd++) but QGLE gives me issues...

It will initially open a gle file (from double-clicking on it)and will draw
it fine, and I can edit the file and QGLE updates the figure as expected.
However, if I try to zoom in it crashes with something along the lines of:


The following is the error code and memory location of the error.

We use this to find the line in GLE's source code where the error occured.

Error code 0xc0000005 in module gsdll32.dll at 0023:1021e4ec.

Read from location 00002126 caused an access violation.

Stack trace:

Call: 0x1021e4ec (module gsdll32.dll)

StackWalk end offset: 1021e4ec - error code = 299

GLE version: 4.2.5.

Time: 08/12/2019 11:18:12.


Once this has happened, QGLE immediately gives the error when I try to
restart it.

The same thing happens when I try to change the display resolution within
QGLE, and it happens with whatever (working) gle file I try.

Has anyone come across this issue? If so, did they manage to sort it out?
Running QGLE from the command line gives no helpful output.

It's a bit of a problem for me: gle is the main application we use to
generate all publication figures! I use it under linux. My boss on the
other hand..!

Cheers,

Laurence
