Great new features, the UTF-8 support in particular. Thanks!

The new windows build doesn't work when I installed it on a rather ordinary Windows 10 machine. I believe you forget to include some of the required Qt 5.5.1 runtime components:

---------------------------
           glogg
---------------------------
This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "windows".

Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
---------------------------
            OK
---------------------------

I'm guessing it works for you because you have the full Qt build environment installed, with some of these DLLs in PATH?

Thanks C-J, do we think this is a problem specific to Windows 10? I have tested on Windows 7 and all the necessary files seem to be there.

Can anybody confirm if the installer is working for Windows 7?

Thanks

Nic

Hi Nicolas,

I'm not sure. I looked at glogg.exe through Process Monitor yesterday, and I noticed it failed opening the subdirectory "platforms". Then I read http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/windows-deployment.html and I believe one might need to distribute "platforms\qwindows.dll" with the installer. Could that be it?

Hope this helps,

C-J Berg

Thanks C-J, now I think I remember bumping into the 'platforms' issue before so you are probably right. It is odd it works with my test VM.

Could you try using this file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/9zv2zcceyy0sfv4/qwindows.dll?dl=0 , placing it in the same directory as glogg.exe, or maybe under 'platforms/' or 'plugins/platforms/'.

If you manage to make it work, could you send a screenshot showing the exact directory structure and I'll replicate that in the installer?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Success! When I put it in .\platforms\qwindows.dll, glogg starts without a hitch. I also tried .\plugins\platforms\qwindows.dll but that didn't work (unless one redirects the plugins folder, I think, but I see no need for that).

Thanks a bunch, Nic! Glogg is a such a nice log viewer, open-source and multi-platform - what more could one possibly ask for?! :-)

Great, thanks a lot C-J! Could you list all the files you have in the Program Files/glogg directory just to make sure I don't forget anything?

I'll rebuild the installer tonight and hopefully everything will be sorted.

Thanks a lot

Nic

Thank you for updated version.

The MD5 "55fe9e1c0b0210342fdeb6ef6164f189" mentioned here is not matching with MD5 for downloaded file, i.e. "432CBB9C1D271D0FFAC0F38D88A85CB7". 

Can you update the new MD5, we need to verify with.
