.NET Framework Problem, I think?

[Southstorm]

Hello to all,
Thought I could get this figured out on my own, but I was wrong.

Some Background:
Been using StaxRip 1.0.0.3 with no problems. Then saw a new beta version was available with some nice features and decided to try it out. I always uninstall previous versions whenever I do this type of thing.

Installed the latest beta of Staxrip, made sure I had the necessary NET framework installed, up to v3.5. Started using the new Staxrip and got a few minor error messages. No problem. I uninstalled it and reinstalled the previous stable 1.0.0.3 version.

Went to run the program and got these error messages:
Something Unexpected has happened
Object reference not set to an instance of an object

I have 2 option from this dialog box,
1. "Make a bug report" Which seems to just exit
2. "Cancel" Which then proceeds to open StaxRip.

So I push cancel, StaxRip opens, and a new error message:

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.




I have uninstalled and reinstalled all NET framework to no avail.

I run XP SP2.
I'm not a programmer, but am somewhat computer savvy.

If anyone could point me in the right direction i"d greatly appreciate it.

it's a bug in staxrip.

[burfadel]

Yeah it was working for me, then I played around with it and it stopped working. Uninstalled and installed the official version no problem!

[Southstorm]

I too uninstalled the beta and reinstalled the Official. This error message is from the official build.

please try another unofficial build: http://www.planetdvb.net/non_drupal/staxrip/StaxRip_unofficial.exe
