libprs500 failing to start on Vista

Dave Qua · 04-10-2008, 02:30 PM

I've just installewd librs500 on Vista and it just won't start.

Looking in the Process Viewer, I see the libprs500.exe process start and then just exit.

Is there any way of seeing whats happening (debug output or such)?

There's a FAQ entry in the FAQ section of the user manual at http://libprs500.kovidgoyal.net/user_manual

Glad I found this thread. I had installed libprs500 and I was wondering if it was going to work, since it never started up properly. After following the FAQ entry (found and deleted library1.db), it started up. Thanks.

(I suppose that makes this thread worthy for a bump too, since this thread was a little difficult to find)
