Thank you. Can you check for one or more of those zip files and send those to me as well? The last three, like these are fine: C:\Users\zagouras\AppData\Local\Temp\BOINC Manager_dbgrpt-8376-20151211T181459.zip C:\Users\zagouras\AppData\Local\Temp\BOINC Manager_dbgrpt-7632-20151211T183806.zip C:\Users\zagouras\AppData\Local\Temp\BOINC Manager_dbgrpt-3940-20151211T190659.zip That's on the system you sent me the stderrgui.txt from. Edit, and please answer me on my question: "Are you saying that even trying to set <http_debug> will crash BOINC Manager?" Because if it is, I have to write you a step-by-step how to on how to add the flag manually to a file. |

Are you using BOINC Manager with the Greek language? What happens if you set the language to English and then you try to add a project? (Options->Other options...->General->Language->English->OK->click OK on the message about exiting & restarting BOINC Manager; File->Exit, follow normal exit procedure. Start->All Programs->BOINC->BOINC Manager. Now try to add a new project) |

Yeah, I just set to Greek and found I can easily reproduce the problem. Should've thought of this earlier, but I only just noticed that the person in the other thread is also Greek... and then it hit me, that must be it. :) Am informing the developers further. You can take the <http_debug> flag down again. |

So that is what I have to do at the others pc's. 1. Check the "http_debug and 2. Change language |

No, the only thing that you have to do is change the language to English or another language you're familiar with. It has nothing to do with <http_debug> As I said, you can delete that out of the cc_config.xml file again, or set it to zero (0). |

Phew, way easier that I try out all the test versions the developers send to me, than that I have to send those to you and give instructions on how to use them. :) |

I have just tested a BOINC Manager version that no longer crashes when the language is set to Greek and I try to add a project. It'll appear in the next BOINC installer. Edit: 10 builds and 3 hours further, we finally fixed it for good. It'll require a new BOINC Manager and locale files, so it's really going to need a new BOINC installer. |
