Bricscad won't run

Carlos Le Mare

I installed BricscadClassic-V10.4.9-1-en_US.deb package into my Ubuntu installation and Bricscad works fine. After a while not using it I found it won't start up anymore.

I tried reinstalling the software without luck. The error I get on my terminal window is:

------------------------

$ ./bricscad.sh
bricscad: /home/build/dev/ddcad.autobuild/ddcad/src/utils/ut_print_data.cpp:632: void ut::PrintData::readFromRegistry(ut::Registry&, const OdString&): Assertion `!printerName.iCompare(strValue)' failed.
Cancelado

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 with this uname -a:

Linux clemare-laptop 2.6.32-23-generic #37-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jun 11 07:54:58 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux

Thanks.

same bug with me (on ubuntu 10.04 64 bits)

Try to remove ~/.bricscad folder. If the problem persists, also remove ~/.bricsys and ~/Bricsys directories. After that you will have like a newly installed Bricscad (Linux).

strangely, it works again launching with gksudo

It works because the application is launched as root, thus it uses the configuration directories from /root not from /home/your_other_username

and what's the way to solve the problem? I have already erase Bricscad directory and reinstall with the same bug.

Carlos Le Mare

Well. remove the ~/.bricscad works fine. I don't know why I don't think in that... it's obvious.

 

Thanks for the tip!
