Yes, I love that I didn't go crazy yet! (hopefully) :-D

Hey Ludek,

you found the solution. I instantly deleted the data.zip and ... there was the magic.

Thank you. It is good that you did not go crazy ;-)

OK, that it is! Found it: https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=17879

EDIT: Will be fixed in the next build (that will delete and ignore the 'data.zip')
For now feel free to just delete the 'data.zip' from the install folder and it will do the "magic" ;-)

unfortunately you aren't right. The failure isn't gone.

And don't worry about the backup software. The folder "Portableapps" isn't in the save path.

It is far beyond my technical horizon, but maybe the cause isn't in the action.js for taking the .js from a freshly installed MM5 did not have a positive effect.

Damn, so from where the incorrect version of actions.js can be taken ??
Can you please:
1) Search your PC whether you have a single actions.js file just in the PortableApps folder ?
2) Generate full debug log (with DbgView started prior to MM5) -- see item 4b here: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewt ... 30&t=86643

Thanks! This issue really makes me crazy and I would love to undestand it finally.

Yes, with this installation there is the correct actions.js script with line

Code: Select all

var list = app.playlists.getPlaylistsForTrackAsync(track);
and no longer the incorrect (old) with:

Code: Select all

cancelTask = app.playlists.getPlaylistsForTrackAsync(track);
So re-installing solved the issue and seemed to replace the old actions.js correctly this time, the question is why it silently failed beforehand.
What is the backup software that you are using and are you using it to backing up something from the "C:\PortableApps\MediaMonkey 5\" that could cause the old version of actions.js being restored ?

Hi Ludek,

in the line 8188 (and around it) there aren't such entries.

What is the correct version? I did an update over an older installation and i find there an action.js with the same date and hour. And surprise with this installation there isn't the crash issue.

There is a backiup software but i start it always manually. So it isn't working when i do updates.

Here is the link to the possibly corrupted action. js of my main istallation.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/3te9k1l0bdimm ... ns.js?dl=0

So ... when i put a copy of a newly installed MM5 in the folder of my main installation the problem will be solved?

What do you mean? There is "Open in Explorer" when rightclicking on some folder. Or you mean something else?
Hi, thanks for reply. it should works in that way, i know. I got annoyed when i was going through menu with "playlist" and was getting crash before i got to explorer menu.

Right now i can confirm that the problem is in an exceptional error on some java file which should be updated with newer version during main program update but it wasn't. Unninstaling and reinstaling "mediamonkey" solvs problem

OK,
could you check whether line 8188 in your actions.js is
cancelTask = app.playlists.getPlaylistsForTrackAsync(track);
or whether there is
var list = app.playlists.getPlaylistsForTrackAsync(track);
?

I guess that if you install 2404 to another folder then the correct version of actions.js will be there?
Couldn't be a backup software on your PC somehow preserving the old version of actions.js script ?
As for sharing, you can attach it to eSupport ticket or upload it to a free file hosting service (DropBox, MediaFire,...) and put the link to the file here.

Hello Ludek,
yes, that's me.

I swear i did not touch the action.js. Til now i even did not know about its existence, lol.
The date of the file is 12.05.2021. How shall i share it? Via E-Mail? Whereto?

By the way the js begins with: This file is part of MediaMonkey licensed for use under the Ventis Media End User License Agreement, and for the creation of derivative works under the less restrictive Ventis Limited Reciprocal License.

OK,
checking it again and now I see it here, from user user ID: fpc12 user name: Franco C.
I am not sure if it is you, but the email is at gmx.de -- so probably it is yours ?

Anyhow thanks, just strange that it has taken so long to arrive.

Checking this log and it is still the issue that for some reason you have outdated actions.js script.
In your c:\portableapps\mediamonkey 5\actions.js script there is

Code: Select all

8188.             cancelTask = app.playlists.getPlaylistsForTrackAsync(track);
8189.             cancelTask.then(function (list) { 
but in the actual code (actions.js from build 2404 should be)

Code: Select all

var list = app.playlists.getPlaylistsForTrackAsync(track);
            cancelTask = list.whenLoaded();
I still wonder how this can happen that actions.js wasn't replaced during the install ?
Can you check whether actions.js is somehow locked by an application or something like this?
By evidence it hasn't been replaced for some reason, or did you replace it by the older actions.js version somehow manually after installing 2404 ?

Another possibility is that a third party addon replaces the code in actions.js ? But in your log I see only the default scripts (created by Ventis) -- so that' probably not the case? Could you please share c:\portableapps\mediamonkey 5\actions.js for analyzing?

I am quite sure that i hit the submit button, for I even wrote a text.

In the Eureka folders i can find a mediamonkey.el. But it is not from today's morning. It is two days old. So Submitting of today must have been ok.

Hi,
unfortunatelly I don't see your 14D1FC2F here, are you sure that you submitted it?
Could you please search your PC for file 'MediaMonkeyEngine.el' ? The file should be there whenever it fails to submit.
More about the possible locations item 4a here: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewt ... 30&t=86643

Good morning,

i just upgraded to beta 2404. The crash is still happening though. Send 14D1FC2F again. In the text i spoke about 2403, did not see that you jumped from 2402 to 2404 :)).

In Germany it is a holiday today. If so where you live ... have a nice holiday.
