Logos 4.0a SR-1 & SR-2 Release Notes

Morph line in Reverse Interlinear has tooltip explaining the morph code

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I was just getting ready to whine about what these were.

Is this suppose to be an automatic update, or is there a link to a download script?

Nevermind...shutting Logos down a second time and running "update now" got things going.

It's automatic. Just type "update now" if you haven't received it yet.

Thanks Mark!!!

Just type "update now" if you haven't received it yet.

(Only kidding!)

And for those of us OCD & addicted to updates, just write a little macro we can execute to keep typing Update Now until one happens.

(Only kidding!)

Just glad Bill, that my wife does not have a button FOR ME that says "update now".

Ah yes Bill there are those of us that just wait in "excited" anticipation for the next update [:D].

Dan, shhhhh, I won't tell the wife if you don't [;)].

LOL

Is there any chance we could get the option to pause downloads, instead of just cancel them? Especially for bigger downloads it would be very useful, and the others in my house that share the net with me would probably be most appreciative lol

Wow this is substantially bigger than SR-1 (36MB+)  SR-2 is 882.1MB or so. You guys must have squashed a BIG bug with this update[8-|]. No big deal for me on a 18Mbs connection, but was just amazed at the size contrast between updates.

The big difference is the updated resources - particularly the Interlinears - some new popup tags and some new interlinears e.g., NLT NT

Thanks Chis for shedding some light on this, makes a lot of sense.

Thanks for the fix.

How can you tell which resources have been updated?

Either:

1. Watch your indexing log, or
2. Look in your resources folder to see which files are new
3. Use an SQLite viewer to examine Logos' settings files.

Let more ambitious forum contributors tell you [:)].

Is there a download link for the new SR's?  My install dvd is corrupt, have uninstalled 2x, reinstalled.  Cleaned with revouninstaller, os-winxpsp3, solid machine/hardware...

Maybe the new SR's install clean?

Just looked at my indexer Log and see that there were some updates to the reverse interlinears. I also notice that the NLT NT RevInt is out now. Not sure if this is new to today, or not, but thought I'd report it.

I thought I made it clear that I wanted the NIV rev. int. out first. Hmm. [;)]

Earlier consensus considered that the NLT was indeed new.

Any idea why I can't use Logos while the download of SR-2 is taking place?  It opens says it's stopped working and shuts down.  My home Internet is lite and this download is going to take a while at 844MB I guess it's back to V3 for a little while...funny how comfortable you with this program after only a few weeks of having it.

As I understand it the bug that hit Logos 4 on Dec 31 has something to do with the homepage, this could account for your problems using it. If you want to get SR-2 directly, cancel the download and run the update from http://downloads.logos.com/LBS4/Installer/Logos4Setup.exe

I thought I made it clear that I wanted the NIV rev. int. out first. Hmm.

Me too! But thanks anyway!

There appears to be a problem from this release. Logos 4 crashes when I go to open it!

I understand there is a fix for this problem, is it possible to get quick access to this fix, without having to wait for the Logos server to tell me about it and allow me to download it?

Thanks.

Martin,

I think Kevin addressed this two posts above.

How do I view the indexing log?

How do I view the indexing log?

To view the log, you have to have logging enabled. Look through the Wiki (link below) and find the entry for diagnostic logging.

If you have logging enabled, the log will be in MyDocuments\Logos Log Files\

Well, my L4 stopped too, but the download is proceeding. So, hopefully it will stil update???

Yep, the download is getting the update and then you can run the update install and it should start up Logos.

I'm having problems doing Word Studies on basic words like "righteousness." "Righteous" pops up as a possibility, but "righteousness" doesn't even though "righteousness" is clearly one of the subjects in my dictionaries.

AFAIK, topics are still a work in progress. Some dictionaries are not completely tagged for topics yet, and this is how your partial lists are being generated. [sigh]

Richard,

Thanks for the quick help.

Paul

this resulted in a runtime error...  I would like to be able to use my purchase please this week when I am off to put together some new year study items while I have the time... thank you....  trying to maximize bivocational time off.... thanks for your help

the key here is should....  the runtime error on mine says to contact the application support team...

Not happy it changed my default Bible to NLT as part of install, given that I dont use home page took me a bit to track down the problem/cause

Didn't do that to me. Not sure why it would. I'll be interested to see what Melissa or Bradley say about this next week/year

bigger than SR-1 (36MB+)  SR-2 is 882.1MB or so

I find it interesting that on my machine, I first had a large 882MB update and index. Then the next time I started it, there was another 36MB update. It is now showing SR2, though I didn't check in between the updates...

I think the 800+ MB were interlinear resources being updated while the smaller update was SR-2...

I think the 800+ MB were interlinear resources being updated while the smaller update was SR-2...

Was the 800 MB worth of resources an overwrite or additions? I seemed to have lost about 800 MB worth of space and I am getting close to running out.

If you go to your Logos 4 Resources folder, you will see the 15 (I think) interlinears with a new date (mine is Dec 30, I assume that's the date they were downloaded to your PC).  They add up to about 780MB, and most of them are replacements.  Someone posted here there were a couple (2-3?) new interlinears, but I am not sure about that.  If you are running Windows 7 and doing backup, I know you can right click on each file, choose Properties, and one of the tabs will let you see prior versions. I tried it on my system.

The only new file should be the NLT New Testament. Everything else was a replacement.

Logos 4.0a Service Release 1 (SR-1, v4.01.3.4737) was released this afternoon. SR-2 (v4.01.3.4767) will be released this evening (with one more bug fix).

Bug Fixes

• [SR-2] Fixed crash (System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException) opening the Home Page on December 31

Is there any significance to the fact that this crash happened exactly ten years (minus one day) after the famous Y2K prediction? <Big Grin>

still having installation problems....   Since I removed everything and tried to do a clean install, my dvd and the latest setup file has NOT worked.  I can provide screen shots and error logs that point to Logos 4 software.  I am an IT professional so I have also eliminated the 25000 other variables that point to everything besides Logos 4.  

Here is my frustration:  $200 upgrade (I own the GOLD package), $1000s of $ investment in this product = no support and waiting for forum posts, very dissappointing...  For as much as I have spent personally with Logos (please check my account), I figured that maybe my installation problem might be a priority....

Oh... I do not want FREE unlocks... (which has been the 'softeners' in the past for bad support).   I want working, operating, and usable software.... both in hard copy and downloadable file.  thank you...  I am trying to do other things besides wait for forum posts...  grrrrrr...  

Derek,

Have you tried calling Technical support? I realize that they are closed today so that won't help immediately.

I know the forums aren't the best place to do tech support, but if you could start a new thread with as much details as you can, perhaps someone will be able to help.

Thanx Kevin all good ideas and tried....  alas the frustration...

I would be willing to start a new thread however, the voluminous other parties who have the SAME issue have also posted here and it shows a pattern (hopefully).  Also, the only other helpful solution would perhaps to be able to provide screen shots... this forum does not allow this...

I will just use e-sword with what I need to accomplish for now.... in the interim....  having access to my 3,500 resources would have been quite helpful though...

[:(]

How can you tell which resources have been updated?

Either:

1. Watch your indexing log, or
2. Look in your resources folder to see which files are new
3. Use an SQLite viewer to examine Logos' settings files.

Where do I find the Indexing Log?

Actually, you can post pictures to the forum just click on the paper clip and find and insert your file.

3 vital snapshots that reveal issues with installer (to include. msi)...  Thanks Kevin.... a little closer...

I'm curious, I see on your desktop in the first two grabs that Logos installed far enough to create a desktop icon. Did you try holding down Ctrl when you click on it to enable logging. Perhaps we could get a log file for someone more knowledgeable than I to look at.

Also I saw this on another thread, http://wiki.logos.com/Creating_a_Crash_Dump_with_ADPlus It might make more detailed logs to at least email to Logos tech support to help figure out what's going on. 

Ok, well, we should probably stop clogging up the release notes thread, how bout you start a new thread so that we could attract some more attention to your problem, perhaps someone with the same problem had a solution that I don't know about.

with control key...
