Bug Report: ARM Mac running 3.6.0 Beta 5 and VASL 6.6.2

i had an internal error and error log is below and will split into a couple of posts due to limitations

I was simply try to move a piece from one hex to another. I have to say generally improved perforemance and response with the new ARM Version, but if I cannot move a piece then really un usable.

This was in a large CG game and I have not tried in smaller scenario if same issue exists

Thanks for help and let me know if anything else is needed.

I have error log file, but since my account is new I am unable to post more information or more of the error log.

As a note, I tried with another scenario and same result

I also tried with VASL 6.6.3 and same results

I tried with a brand new setup created under Vassal 3.6.0 Beta 5 and Vasl 6.6.3 and same results. Moving on map causes the Uncaught Exception

I tried another game (LHY) and it work fine with no uncaught exceptions.

We need the entire error log to troubleshoot this. Normally when there’s an uncaught exception, it’s reported to our bug tracker, but the dialog indicates there was an additional problem with the reporting. If you can’t post the error log here, put it somewhere else that we can see it—e.g., use a pastebin and post the link here.

Thanks, here is a link to the Error Log

Let me know if you need anything else

You’re having several problems at once here.

  • Something is wrong with your extensions directory for VASL. I can’t tell what exactly. Are the extensions you intend to load actually in that directory?

  • Something is wrong with your connection to the internet. Connecting to the game server failed.

  • You seem to be missing the bdHT board, which is causing both some errors with attempting to load it and attempting to get LOS data for it.

  • Because your internet connection seems not to be working, the automatic bug reporter fails.

  • There’s a bug with the link in the automatic bug reporter dialog which I’m fixing now.

VASSAL-3.6.0-SNAPSHOT-7be0524 or any later mainline development build at Builds of vassalengine/vassal will have a fix for the last bug I mentioned.

The other problems you need to dig into more.

Great thanks, I will give that a try.

The other points regarding the extensions, bdHT etc I have those resolved.

I downloaded build

And recieved same error when trying to move a unit on the map I cleared up Extensions and Board Files, and started fresh. LOS is deactived but not sure that is the issue.

Error Logs are in Dropbox

Extending here as I am limited to what I can post as a new user

If anything else is needed, please let me know.

You’re now at the point where you’re having a problem just with VASL, so the best place to ask about that is on their forum: VASL | GameSquad Forums

Thanks, I will raise it there next

Development builds from here on have a fix, and the fix will appear in the 3.6.0-beta6 release.
