Altap Salamander Support Forums

i just installed Servant Salamander RC1. At the first launch i get the small window asking if i want to import the old configuration etc...
But after i press start, i see Servant Salamander starting, with this small window in front:

then nothing happens.
I dunno whats going wrong. i tried waiting , installing into a different folder, not importing old configuration data... nothing helped.

Has anyone a similar problem?

hmmpf
after removing all registry keys from altap with regcleaner ic could install RC1. Problem solved

Please try following steps:
1) Install SS 2.5 RC1 (do not start it)
2) move directory "C:\Program Files\Servant Salamander 2.5 RC1\plugins\eroiica" away (to some working directory)
3) Start SS 2.5 RC1

Does it help?

On mine it didn't help. I found there was nothing in the eroiica folder. I removed the folder. When this happens the program locks up. The only way I have found to close it is to do <ctrl><alt>Delete and end the task.

OK, the problem will be in another plugin. You can try to move away other plugins and start SS 2.5 RC1.

The next version of Servant Salamander will display which plugin is about to load. It will be much more easier to identify problem.

I started moving one folder out of the plugin folder at a time. After moving each one I stated RC1. Each time it asked me if I wanted to remove beta 11. I did put a check mark in to remove it. Because I thought the problem really might be a plugin I started moving 4 plugin folders at a time. Then it started working just fine. I moved plugin folders back one at a time. Each time I moved one folder I brought RC1 back up. RC1 came up just fine every time. It seems like it does have something to do with plugins but only the first time you bring up a new version when it's working on removing registry entries from the previous version. This has happened on this computer for every new version installed on this PC since I can remember. Contact me if you would like to troubleshoot this some more when you can simulate another new version.
