When I log in to the app inventor page an error message appears saying

"An internal error has occurred. Report a bug?"

I can't access any of my projects : (

Help please...

Cheers, David

It sounds like the last project you worked on was corrupted,

and you are trapped by AI2 trying to load the last project you worked on

at login time.

I'm going to bounce this thread to MIT, where some

one will hopefully reset your session.

You will probably need to tell MIT your login ID.

Hi David

This is the unfortunate consequence of App Inventor auto-loading the last Project worked on. If the Project gets corrupted (on save, or a rare AI file fault), auto-load can't load it and grrrrrrrr.

You can try:

Clearing the Browser Cache
Closing all tabs except App Inventor (no competition for bandwidth)
Using a different Browser (For nb174, the best choices are Chrome and FireFox)

If you regularly backup your Projects to your PC, then you could create another App Inventor account with a different email address temporarily whilst waiting for the original account to be rescued by MIT.

Try again, it is definitely there and running

Check your network / internet settings

A network connection timeout is a networking problem. Your browser isn't getting through the App Inventor at all. You may need to check with your internet service provider for help.

@Nathan What browser are you using? Do not use Edge, it often does now work with App Inventor 2. If you are using Edge, consider trying a Chrome or Firefox browser.

Ok Nathan, so no easy fix. Are you using a plug in or a virus checker that is blocking mit? Are you attempting to log in using perhaps a public server or a school network? What happens if you try accessing the web page from a home router?

Dear Jeffrey,

I have tried for the last 48 hours to log in. Please kindly advise on the next step as my ISP cannot guarantee full broadband. please kindly delete any app I had in my account to reduce the points of trouble shooting
