OSCAR frozen after O2Ring data update

[doulman]

Greetings,


I followed the directions in your 1st email and Oscar is pointing to the correct file in the 'Documents' folder.

I have included a sanitized debug log file that shows several warnings and error notations for your review.

Thanks,
Don

There have been reports that some Windows updates will block access to certain directories by programs.  Try this, copy the OSCAR_Data folder to the C:\ drive.  In a command prompt, enter: OSCAR --datadir C:\OSCAR_Data.  See if this might correct the problem.

Looking at the "Critical Error : Can't create context" I would say that QT is having trouble with the video setup.

I'm not sure if this is correct:
00817: Debug: Operating system: Windows 10 (10.0)
00817: Debug: Graphics Engine: 3.0 Mesa 12.0.0-rc2
00817: Debug: Graphics Engine type: LegacyGFX

But this is where it got noticed:

Code:

00922: Critical: createContext: wglCreateContextAttribsARB() failed (GL error code: 0x0) for format:
         QSurfaceFormat(version 2.0, options QFlags<QSurfaceFormat::FormatOption>(), depthBufferSize -1, redBufferSize -1,
         greenBufferSize -1, blueBufferSize -1, alphaBufferSize -1, stencilBufferSize -1, samples -1,
         swapBehavior QSurfaceFormat::DefaultSwapBehavior, swapInterval 1, colorSpace QSurfaceFormat::DefaultColorSpace,
         profile  QSurfaceFormat::NoProfile), shared context: 0x1 (The operation completed successfully.)
00922: Critical: createContext: wglCreateContext failed. (The operation completed successfully.)
00922: Warning: Unable to create a GL Context.
00923: Warning: composeAndFlush: QOpenGLContext creation failed

Once it gets a Critical error, it should gracefully tell us and die... I'm not sure how to do that.

But it looks like a graphics system problem to me.

Greetings,

See enclosure for command prompt response.

It seems that Oscar knows where the data file resides since I am able to export the ASV data from the File menu.

Greetings,

Is it possible to download a previous version of Oscar so that I can see if that works on my system?

The command prompt you posted is just telling you that "OSCAR" isn't in the system's search path.  Here are 2 ways to run OSCAR from the prompt.  Both ways achieve the same thing.  The first one just uses the DOS alias for a directory that has a space in it, and the second shows you how to enter it when you need to include a space within the command. Use either one.

1. DOS:
C:\progra~1\oscar\oscar.exe

2. Using the directory name with spaces in its name:
"C:\program files\oscar\oscar.exe"
(The complete command is enclosed within quotes(""))

Greetings,

Is this what you wanted me to do in the command prompt to make sure that OSCAR was looking at my Oscar data folder?

Greetings,

If so, Oscar still holds at the Profile screen.

No,  You included the word, "file", in your declaration.  Everthing else looks fine the way you did it, though. . . just don't include the extra word.  The OSCAR data directory is named, "OSCAR_Data".

The command line will look like this, "OSCAR --datadir C:\Users\doulm\Documents\OSCAR_Data

Just a note; Since none of your path contains any spaces in the directory names (e.g.: "Program Files"), the quotes are not required.

Greetings,

I entered the string above in the Command Prompt with the directory set for the Oscar app, Oscar opened with the enclosed screen open. The only thing that is active on this screen are the Menus. Previously, this window would flash by and then settle on the Oscar welcome screen from which I could look at the graphical data.
