trouble_shooting

• Crashes on startup.
  • Probably caused by a malformed event sent by a poorly written client. I try to defend against these, but sometimes strange formats sneak through. What happens is that the malformed event gets written out to the private/messages/<date> file, but cannot be read back in when you start up more-speech at a later time.
    • The fix is to delete the private/messages/<date> file that is the culprit. Then download a new version of more-speech. I've probably already fixed it in a later version. I fix these things pretty quickly. If you don't want to search and you don't mind losing more history, just all the files since before the bad file was written. A day or two should be sufficient unless you haven't started up more-speech in longer than that.
