Amigans down time

Sorry about Amigans.net being inaccessible for the last day or so.
The apache webserver had died on us and it took some time to get to the admin that could restart it. Steps have been taken to minimize this time should Apache die on us again in the future.

@Raziel Quote: How does one do that, i don't work with TypeManager that often After installing the fonts select each one for which you have more than one of the same family, for example Arial, Arial Bold, Arial Italic and Arial Bold Italic are one font family, use change, tab 3 files, add the other family fonts and save the changes (the english text in the gadgets may be different, I'm using the german locale and didn't check the english texts). Quote: ps: did you fix your crash yet? It probably wasn't related to the fonts and the crashes you get. Please try if this executable crashes for you as well, I changed some of the font parameters and added more output if something can't be found. You have to start it from a shell to get the output.

Nothing really, i just thought a clean approach would be best to really filter out ALL possible flaws No offence, joerg, your doing a great job ps: did you fix your crash yet?

Unpack the ZIP archive, for example with UnArc, and install the .TTF file in it with TypeManager.

No. Did you unpack the CAB archives (.exe) from sourceforge.net and copy the .TTF files to FONTS:_TrueType?

... any news on this? I'm very anxious to try the "RetroPlatform Player" mentioned in Amiga Future. On the Amiga Forever homepage there is a press release dated December 18th concerning the "imminent release" of AF2008. I know, two months is nothing in Amigaland

I have everything installed as per readme.
The first time (after a reboot) i start OWB (regardless if shell or icon) it crashes with the aforementioned (by TiredofLife and Hans) crash.
Right after the GR window has popped up i start OWB again and NOW it starts, without problems, without crashes, without recoverable alerts!
After a reboot, everything is back to "normal" - read, it crashes
I don't know the inner workings of OWB, but i suspect OWB tries to read something which is created on startup (but not yet available) and crashes. The second start CAN read this "something" (because it was created on start of the first instance) and starts up normally (maybe only some little bugger in env?)
Could you give me an idea on where to look next?
Hi, I can confirm the above, until doing the above I would get a ISI crash everytime I ram OWB. This would be even before the GUI would show up. I have all the need fonts (even completely rebuilding my fonts directory. I have 4 crash logs if anyone would like me to send them. It appears there may be a problem with the ?newlib.library.kmod?. Ciao, Trev Daley.

@all If you want to check your font installations, use Fontpreviewer available here. You will have to check each of the fonts individually, but the error messages with incorrect font installations are useful. Assuming you have installed the core fonts you need to check the following fonts:- Andale Mono.font Arial Black.font Arial Bold Italic.font Arial Bold.font Arial Italic.font Arial.font Comic Sans MS Bold.font Comic Sans MS.font Courier New Bold Italic.font Courier New Bold.font Courier New Italic.font Courier New.font Georgia Bold Italic.font Georgia Bold.font Georgia Italic.font Georgia.font Impact.font Tahoma.font Times New Roman Bold Italic.font Times New Roman Bold.font Times New Roman Italic.font Times New Roman.font Trebuchet MS Bold Italic.font Trebuchet MS Bold.font Trebuchet MS Italic.font Trebuchet MS.font Verdana Bold Italic.font Verdana Bold.font Verdana Italic.font Verdana.font Webdings.font

I can reproduce a problem with 1.10 now, it's not same as the crashes others get, but it may be related.

Well just to tell you it works fine here. Just used it for the last hour without any problems.
(The only problem i did occur was a 100% usage. Its almost as if something is stuck in a loop, but im sure thats not caused by you)
