Application Error on Launch

[tangerinerick]

Hi, I'm running 5.1.2 on Kindle Touch, Jailbroken, and with KUAL. Copied the "WebLaunch" folder to /extensions. (already have the helper stuff in there that seems to work ok). changed settings.example.js to settings.js

Everytime I try and launch I get the "Application Error" Modal. "The selected application could not be started. Please try again.".

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks.

Hi Rick,

unfortunately this error message comes up when any error occurs, so it doesn't say much. The only time I experienced something like that was when I set my git client on windows to check out auto crlf and it broke my files for the kindle. I don't know how far you are familiar with this, but if you are able to connect to the kindle via ssh you can see what happens with "showlog -f" and look out for an error.

Ok, thanks for the response Paul, I'll try and investigate as you describe. Cheers!

Hey, just wanted to follow up, did you get it to work?

[tangerinerick]

Hey, thanks for the follow-up, I haven't re-tried it yet, I've installed skipstone for now and just have the menu bar showing, which is kind of ok. I'll definitely be giving web launch another go soon though. Thanks again. Rick.

I'm having this same problem on my PW 5.4.4. Any further thoughts on work around? Some have mentioned that the mesquite from PW2 that was incompatible with this app was added to PW1 on an update???

Unfortunately I don't have a kindle anymore so I can't investigate it, sorry.

Three years later. ;-)

Please add a short hint to the Readme file, that there are troubles with the current versions and/or jailbreaks.

Hello, have you a tip for fix this problem or allow to see the log error please?

I managed to get a log from clicking the button to getting the error, however, it has a lot of noise.

@PaulFreund if you have any debugging tips here, I'd love to take a shot at this.
