Sigil 0.7.4 CRASHES all the time

JSWolf · 10-31-2013, 11:07 AM

I can get Sigil 0.7.4 to crash just by clicking on any of the dropdown menus. It doesn't matter if a book is loaded or not. I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit.

Code:

Error info: Critical: QApplication::regClass: Registering window class 'Qt5QWindowPopupDropShadowSaveBits' failed. (Not enough storage is available to process this command.)
Sigil version: 0.7.4
Runtime Qt: 5.1.0
Compiled Qt: 5.1.0
Platform: Windows SysInfo ID 144

I did rename Sigil's working directory in Users so it would not use what's there in case that was it. Still no go.

What OS and how much memory do you have? I run 0.7.4 using a 32 bit windows machine with 3G of memory and it runs fine. The error message is clear that this is a memory problem.

I have 3gig of ram here. Everything else I'm running is working as it should.

I installed over a working 7.3. Perhaps that is the difference.

Does only the OSX build of 0.7.4 ship with Qt 5.2-beta? I assumed the Windows build did too, but yours still indicates 5.1.0.

EDIT: never mind. answered my own question, by actually reading the 0.7.4 release thread.

The error message would imply you are running out of disc space or memory. Do you have something else running that uses Qt5 in perhaps a different version?

Well, I did reboot and 0.7.4 seems to be working. What's odd is that it was the only program not working that I ran before the reboot.
