Hi, in our company we use windows XP and I had crashes every time I try to start eric 4.20. After the splash screen at start up there was a hint about a illegal address and eric4 crashed. I use eric4 often at home on linux: he is stable and I like him. So I played around with the the configuration utility and switched the auto update thing OFF (Application/Preferences/update/Check period to NONE). We use a proxy in our company and so I later switched the use proxy checkbox Use prox to ON and inserted the proxy address and port here. After that I could check for updates, manual and auto triggered.
I think, eric4 has a problem, when he is installed behind a proxy and he tries to get information about newer versions from the internet (at least on Windows XP). regards Winfried _______________________________________________ Eric mailing list [email protected] http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/eric
