KDM Creator is crashing since upgrade

Post by Aswippe Johnson »

Hi, all! I just upgraded to version 2.10.2 and now my KDM Creator app is crashing whenever I try to automatically email KDMs. Sometimes they make it through to the recipient, sometimes they don't... but every time it crashes and says:

"dcpomatic2_kdm.exe has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program."

Writing KDMs to a folder works fine. Again, this only happened after I upgraded from version 2.10.1

I can email KDMs okay from the main program, but not with the KDM Creator.

I'm having the same problems, every time I try to make a KDM and set the checkbox to send by e-mail. DCP-o-matic crashes.

Also may I know what your settings are for a google e-mail account in the preferences? Thanks!

Hi folks,

It's very hard to see what might have changed between 2.10.1 and 2.10.2 to cause this as there were very few changes between those versions.

Does it happen even when sending a single KDM mail, or are you always sending lots?

According to a page like this you need smtp.gmail.com for the outgoing mail server (port 465 should work) and your gmail address / password for the mail user name and password.

Either. One KDM or numerous, it crashes every time.

OK, I will need to prepare a test version with extra debugging, I think. Remind me if I forget.

Hi carl,

I've been trying to use the kdm e-mail feature and upon checking the problem still persists. KDM creator still crashes when I try to send emails. Thanks
