Image does not start anymore
Hi, I have a Pharo 7 image which I normally start from Pharo Launcher on Windows. I think I saved it without problems. However, suddenly it stopped opening. As it contains data and some unsaved code I would hate to loose, I'd appreciate any help on how to debug a situation like this. I attached the debug log. Cheers, Bernhard
Hi, That is weird. It seems that you should have some debugging process running... Do you have the same error if you try again? So can also try with a squeak VM which is more simple. You can always retrieve your changes with Epicea (see Gif) and you playground code (see in the play cache folder). Worse case, I can try something to get your data back but without any guaranty that it will work because it implies to play with the image bytecode.

I'm guessing that would start by copying the ombu folders under pharo-local to a new image. cheers -ben

Not sure if it's "the way", but I've done that successfully before. ----- Cheers, Sean -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html
Hi Vincent, Thanks for taking the time to answer. Yes, I have the same error every time. I tried with the latest stable Squeak VM. However, I get an error âExternal module not foundâ for libgit2.dll. I am afraid I cannot provide the image because the data it contains is sensitive. I will look into Epicea next. Cheers, Bernhard

Hi Vincent, It occurred to me that I had probably misunderstood you. I had tried with the Squeak VM and not the latest OpenSmalltalk Pharo VM. With that my image works again. Code is saved. Data is there. Learned something for next time. :-) Thanks everyone for your help. Cheers, Bernhard
