Jonathan:

After you click on the Logos 4 icon in the Dock does it say Logos 4 next to the Apple in the top-left-hand corner? If so can you click on Go>Home and tell us what happens?

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/125202#Comment_125202

When I click Go>Home, nothing happens. No home page, no resources, nothing. But the icon has the light lit under it and the Logos 4 links are showing next to the apple.

I have put this post in 3 days ago and still have NO resources. I REALLY would like a fix so that I can have my resources back. I just upgraded to Platinum and I don't feel like I am getting my money's worth.

Jonathan,

I see this in your Logos4.log

2010-05-03 17:44:36.1858 3 Error SyncManager Unexpected exception encountered during synchronization - System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteException: The database disk image is malformed

Can you try closing Logos4 and deleting /Users/jonathansmith/Library/Application Support/Logos4/Documents/wrbkmweq.ncv/SelfTests/SelfTests.db and then restarting?

Thanks,

Tom

If that doesn't work, please post your logs again.

I want to make sure that I understand. I apologize for asking this question, are you ONLY wanting me to delete SelfTests.db?

Yes. That's exactly what I'm suggesting

I had to delete the wrbkmweq.ncv folder and then restart. IT WORKED!!!! Thank you.

Tom,

I am experiencing the exact same thing on my MBP. I tried what you suggested to Jonathan and I believe it worked the first time, but no longer works.

I would appreciate any other suggestions, as Jonathan testified, it is pretty frustrating.

Appreciate your help.

To help Tom (and Logos development team), please post logs.

Directions to delete file(s) and/or run command(s) is based on information in posted log files and console messages.

Forum http://community.logos.com/forums/t/6731.aspx has tutorial for posting logs. Few days ago, learned from Tom that Alpha 18 and newer releases have logging enabled, hence step 1 configuration not needed.

Vito,

You seem to have either a corrupted database or a disk problem based on this statement in your logs multiple times:

I wonder if running "Disk Utility" and verifying the disk and optionally repairing it would help?

I verified the disk and it all checks out to be OK. How would I go about determining or fixing a potentially corrupted database?

It looks like your ResourceManager.db might be corrupt. That file is located at: /Users/Vito/Library/Application Support/Logos4/Data/hagbd0v1.0j6/ResourceManager/ResourceManager.db

Could you upload this file so we could take a look at it?

The file you uploaded is 74 bytes which is a bit of a problem. Can you rename "ResourceManager.db" to "ResourceManager.db.corrupt" and restart Logos 4?

Here you go Tommy. When I double click the L4 application , it proceeds to "Sign in" then disappears as if I never attempted to open the program.

I had the same problem as the op. I tried all the things suggested to no avail. I finally went in under Users and Logos 4 and deleted everything. when that didn't work, I deleted the app, not the resources. I then redownloaded A19.1. When it started to download my resources I canceled it. Then after about 20 minutes it began to index. After a full re-index it is working great.

BTW, I think the whole thing was my fault, when I orginally downloaded A19 it kept freezing due to indexing so I force quit a couple of times. Then A19.1 fixed it or so I thought but then it quit working as well.

This may or may not be helpful, just wanted to let you guys know that deleting the app and starting over works, prob already knew that though.

Vito:

Could you update to A20 and tell us if anything has been resolved?

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/129673#Comment_129673

What is A20? Where do I get it? and if it's an update, can it update if the the program won't load?

I reinstalled my OS and started fresh. I tried loading L4 again and the same thing is happening... 'Signing in' then 'Loading resources' then crashes.

Here is the most recent log report.

Hi Vito

A20 is the latest Alpha version of the program.

You can find a link to it in the first post on this forum.

If you download and install it it will replace the existing version of the program.

You do not need to be running the program to download and install a new version.

Re-installing the OS rarely improves matters - OSX and Windows are not the same and neither are the cures for problems on a Mac most of the programs are effectively isolated from the OS.

Can you try renaming this folder "/Users/vitomazz/Library/Application Support/Logos4/Documents/bi4rg8qi.ke0" and restarting Logos 4?

You seem to have some kind of systemic corruption of many of your document databases. I wonder if letting them all be recreated and resync'd with the server will fix the problem.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/130420#Comment_130420

I renamed the folder "/Users/vitomazz/Library/Application Support/Logos4/Documents/bi4rg8qi.ke0rename"

Logos icon will bounce in the doc, then a message that it 'quit unexpectedly' with options to ignore, report, or reopen.

Vito,

In going over your crash reports, it looks like a crash loading a dynamically linked library needed by Logos 4, although I can't tell which one. Have you tried just removing the Logos Bible Software 4.app from /Applications, re-downloading and re-installing?

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/133147#Comment_133147

Numerous times. I even back-up all my data, did a clean reinstalled of the os, then re-installsed LBS4. It opened once, then crashes each time since.

Tom Philpot (Faithlife)

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/133151#Comment_133151

OK... Well, that's frustrating. I'll keep going through your logs then.

Tom,

I'm experiencing the same problem and have not been able to use the program for the last two weeks since updating to A20. I had opened up a previous blog with my logs and was wondering if you could look at it. Thanks.

OK, Tom,

I removed the program and deleted everything that said 'LOGOS' (that I could find), and did a re-install again. It seems to be working fine, but indexing is taking hours and has yet to finish. Is this normal for the initial startup?

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/133290#Comment_133290

Yes, the initial indexing will consume a number of hours to complete.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/133293#Comment_133293

OK, Well.

When I initiated the indexing it originally said 3 hours, then 4. After letting it set for about 2 hours it came back saying 12 hours, then couple minutes later 13 hours. It just keeps increasing. this normal too?

The library opens and seems to function, however the MBP is running hot enough to fry an egg. I fear letting it run too long attempting to index if it's not indexing.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/133314#Comment_133314

The change in time estimates is normal.

The heat is also normal. However, if you want to keep things cooler, you can do what I do, put a house fan next to your computer.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/133318#Comment_133318

OK I'll wait this thing out. 3 hours later It says 23 hours now.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/133330#Comment_133330

Make sure that your hard disk is not going into hibernation when you are away. This will pause indexing.

A utility like Caffeine will make sure your computer does not sleep

http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utilities/caffeine.html

Ultimately, it wont take anywhere near 23 hours to index (something under 5 depending on the size of your library).

Blessings

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/133336#Comment_133336

I have "Insomnia" to keep the computer running when I'm away. 30 hours and counting.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/133330#Comment_133330

Vito,

Close any applications you don't need to free up as much memory as possible. Indexing needs about 1 GB of RAM while it's running. If you run low on free RAM while it's indexing it can really increase to indexing time.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/133341#Comment_133341

Everything has been shut down, for the most part. Now at 44 hours remaining. How long should I wait before I realize it's not working? Or how do I know if it is?

Tom Philpot (Faithlife)

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/133355#Comment_133355

You can use Activity Monitor to see if your CPU is working hard while indexing. You can use Console to view the Indexer.log. Sometimes the indexer appears to pause when Logos 4 is shutdown, but I haven't yet detemined the cause. If it appears that nothing is happening in the CPU in Activity Monitor try starting Logos4 again.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/133363#Comment_133363

I restarted. The indexer begins without me opening LBS. The Activity monitor is showing the indexer working hard and using about 500m memory. Started at 47 minutes remaining, now up to 9 hours. Waiting it out.
