Bug: Logos crashing on startup
Installed the latest beta while trying to update an expired version of Mcafee. Mcafee is still not downloading.
The software installed, but crashes shortly after the logo comes up.
Will restart and see if this solves the problem.

The log shows a "FileNotFoundException" but doesn't indicate which file isn't found. Please try to Repair Logos 4 in "Programs and Features" in "Control Panel" and see if that helps.

Same report here - crashes on startup. Tried the repair, but still has the same behavior.

Just went so far as to uninstall Logos and reinstall Beta 3 from scratch, but still failed on startup.

I tried repairing from the programs and features screen. That did not fix the problem. I also tried starting Logos without being connected to the internet; same result. This release renders Logos unusuable

Has anyone found a work around?
I have been beta testing since 2005, and this is the first time that I have been unable to use the software. First time that I do not have a backup version of L4 on the same machine. So I am locked out. Lots of firsts. [H]
Fortunately, I can still access my resources via biblia.com and mobile platform. Thanks for the one lisence, many platforms philosophy Logos.
I'll just sit back and wait for Beta 4 to fix the problem. [;)]

Unfortunately no. I tried deleting L4 from my computer and then reinstalling the beta from scratch but that did not work either. This is a broken beta. Fortunately I have a backup from my netbook and can reload from there.

I am also experiencing the same problem with Win7Pro... tried rebooting and running repair. No success. Will be interested in a workaround.

Hope they fix this soon. Without iPad & Biblia, I'd be dead in the water.

I'm back in business after installing from a backup of beta 2 from my netbook. Not meaning to rub anything in but wanted to once gain publicly thank Dave Hooton for his instaling on multiple computers page on the wiki. That has saved me a lot of time a trouble a number of times over the years.
As a side note when broken betas have gone out before Logos is usually pretty quick to fix it. Very often the next day.

That is why I expect them to probably give a fix today, if they can solve the problem. Don't plan on installing the stable version, will wait.

Agreed. I usually keep a back-up of a stable version and the latest tested beta (in this case 4.6 beta 2) for that very reason. I would not think this would be too difficult to diagnose and fix.

Would someone at Logos please let us know what's going on with this?

For those users who report experiencing the issue and have not yet done so, please post your full diagnostic logs.
It would also be helpful if we could get a crash dump file.
Lynden, since we have your full logs, if you get a chance to collect a crash dump file as well, that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!0 -

If you are experiencing the crash, what anti-virus software are you using? (I'm wondering if that is a common factor across all these failing installations.)
Please check your AV's quarantined files list and restore any Logos 4 files that have been quarantined. (Sorry that I can't provide instructions on how to do this; it is different for each AV program.)

I am running Trend Micro OfficeScan. I haven't updated/patched Windows7 since Sep2011 (corporate restrictions).

Bradley,
I use McAfee; I think Lynden uses the same. Found no Logos 4 files in quaratine.

Nothing quarantined by Trend Micro OfficeScan on my Win7 installation.

OK, it sounds like anti-virus probably isn't the cause.
If you're experiencing this crash, please collect a crash dump with ProcDump (see instructions here: http://wiki.logos.com/ProcDump) and email it to logos4feedback@logos.com.
We probably don't need more than two or three, so if you see some other users posting here that they've already sent one in, then you don't need to.

Having trouble with the dos command. Somewhere I do seem to be getting the syntax right.

Ok, I might hold off installing this beta. I've got a day off -it's a public holiday in Brisbane today and I've planned some study time in the Word using Logos.
Good point though Lynden for those who are down and out: Use Biblia.com or mobile device to a least get access to the majority of your resources if you don't have a backup you can easily restore.

There is a fix for the Windows version of 4.6 Beta 3 available at Logos4Setup.exe.
Please note that this build includes a number of untested code changes which could crash the program, etc. You should only install it if you are currently unable to run Logos 4 due to the "crash at startup" problem.
We hope to release a new build sometime tomorrow which will officially fix this problem, though we wanted to provide something in the meantime for those of you who are currently unable to run Logos 4.

Same thing with B3 on Vista, crash at start, but the fix has it working.

I had to hack my registry using regedit to remove all Logos keys so that it would reinstall the prerequisites, but I was able to get mine back working too.
