[Bug 1783321] Re: Stellarium crashes 15 seconds after starting up
. . . and apparently the urls for those JSON files have changed back again. If you used the config.ini edit workaround mentioned above it is broken again. Revert back to the original urls to fix it - again (perhaps just restore config.ini from config.old?) Looks like any data update call from a bad url writes the html error return into a new "JSON" file, then when the program loads the module and tries to read data from that corrupted JSON file it crashes. Which then triggers another update attempt on the next restart attempt. Next thing you know even your old backup copy of the JSON file is overwritten with the html error. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783321 Title: Stellarium crashes 15 seconds after starting up To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/stellarium/+bug/1783321/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The user workaround of editing the config.ini file per Tigran Aivazian's comment above worked for me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783321 Title: Stellarium crashes 15 seconds after starting up To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/stellarium/+bug/1783321/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1783321] Re: Stellarium crashes 15 seconds after starting up
I went on irc for help and alexwolf provided the following workaround which fixed the problem: Open ~/.stellarium/config.ini and change all three instances of http://stellarium... to https://www.stellarium... After making this change stellarium works absolutely fine.
