HISE crashes when loading my project

@Oli-Ullmann said in HISE crashes when loading my project:

commit 6de7c97.

So you're not using this one?

[Oli Ullmann]

@David-Healey
No, I'm using commit 4ca17f0 (the last one).
6de7c97 is the commit since which it no longer works.

@DanH , did you have the same problem?

[DanH]

@Oli-Ullmann yup

Aha got it, I misunderstood. Yeah sounds like the same issue Dan had.

@David-Healey
Okay, I feel like a newbie! But I can't get HISE configured.

1. I deleted all HISE app data (from the Application Support folder).
2. I compiled HISE from the source code.
3. I set the HISE path in the settings.
4. I open the Export Setup Wizard.
5. The first 4 checkboxes are checked. However, the “Projucer Works” checkbox is not checked.

This means that I cannot compile networks or plug-ins.

Do I need to do anything differently or keep anything in mind with the new HISE version? Did you have this problem too, @DanH ?

[DanH]

@Oli-Ullmann no! Can you run Projucer normally? I'm using Github desktop to pull in new commits rather than downloading a new Hise each time

The export wizard is broken - it still looks at the old location so you cannot get past it at the moment. David already mentioned this but good reminder to fix that asap.

You can easily skip it by setting the "Export Setup" flag to 1 in the HISE settings for now.

@Christoph-Hart I made a PR a couple of days ago https://github.com/christophhart/HISE/pull/853

@David-Healey ah noice thanks!

Okay, I clicked “Skip Wizard” in the Export Wizard. I hope that was the right thing to do. Now I'm trying to compile a very simple project. It only contains a sine wave generator. Unfortunately, I get the following error message:

@DanH Yes, I can open Projucer normally.
