Oops, broke Sound Packager, again.

April 8, 2008 2:33:35 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

Well I believe this is another case of my hitting keys before reading. DOH. 

I did a clean up and I'm thinking I managed to delete something I needed.  I know, how could that ever happen.  

The following is what I get when I try to run SoundPackager.  I know, pictures tell the story way much easier.   

 

I can't remember how to get to the actual error report or I would post that.

I've uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled using SDC and Impulse, and haven't be able to correct the problem.

If my memory is correct I had this same problem with SoundPackager when it was originally released.

Help would be appreciated.  Yeah I know, start reading before hitting the keys.

Hey Philly what's up? I have no problem with SoundPackager. I'm thinking you have a corrupt or missing soundpackager theme that's causing this. Try moving your themes to a temporary directory and reinstalling SoundPackager with just the Stardock default themes. I'm thinking that will fix the problem, maybe, but definitely a possible. Could I be any more sure of myself here?

It might be the same bug I found last week.

Go to %AppData%\Stardock\SoundPackager\ and try to remove (or move to another location) the "Temp Packages" folder. Then restart SoundPackager. It will take some time to rebuild its cache.

If that doesn't work, you might try to remove the whole contents of the %AppData%\Stardock\SoundPackager\ folder (make a backup first!). SoundPackager will crash the first time you start it again (already reported too). Simply start it a second time and it should be fine.

Do you remember what files you deleted when cleaning up? If it is a folder under the Temp Packages folder, the issue has already been reported. Otherwise, you might want to open a new ticket with support (you can reference my own ticket SMV-389010).

BigDogBigFeet and Littleboy thanks for repling. I think BDBF got it, I deleted a dupliceate package that was showing up. I did it from within the program and that's when this happened. I think what I will do is uninstall and delete all sound packages. reboot and do a new install.

I'll post back but it sounds like that should fix the problem. Thanks again folks.
