It installed and ran OK then it froze, tried restarting but just fails. I have attached the bug report, it will probably show what I've done wrong :oops:

It can't find the database (or some related problem). On your desktop should be a file called trace.txt, the first line of that file should show the path Cumulus is trying to use to find the database. Have a look to see if the cumulus.s3db file was correctly installed in that location.

This is from the trace
Data path = C:\Users\Neil\AppData\Local\Cumulus\
23:53:14 Cumulus starting

However, I installed it at c:\Cumulus2

I guess I need to amend something to point it to the correct location, not sure why it got changed as it did intsall and run OK initially :?

No, it doesn't matter where you installed the application, that's where the database goes. Is it not there?

You could try overwriting it with the supplied 'blank' database, and see how that goes.

Unfortunately that didn't work so I removed evrything and re-installed which seems to have fixed it.

I will spend some time looking at all the new features and eye candy - Initial impression is it looks great :clap:
