I installed Thetis 2.9.0.8 Pre-Release(Thetis-v2.9.0.8.x64.msi),
However, I get an error when executing it.
What could be the cause?

That is not the Thetis release for Hermes-Lite 2. Instructions for installing the correct version are on the Hermes-Lite wiki.

Thank you for your suggestion.
As you indicated, after first installing Thetis 2.9.0.8 Pre-Release according to the wiki,
I downloaded and ran Thetis_x64_2_9_0_8-HL2-beta1.zip with the same error.
The error is.

Did you have thetis on there before? If so you could now have a database problem and need to delete database.xml which is located under c:\<yourusername>\Appdata\Roaming\OpenHPSDR

I have uninstalled previous versions of Thetis and deleted database.xml.
I can run up to 2.9.0.3, but later versions give me the same error.

You need to ensure you delete the HL2 database in C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Roaming\OpenHPSDR\Thetis-HL2-x64

I have deleted all files under the AppData\Roaming\OpenHPSDR and installed it, but I get the same error no matter how many times I try.
Am I missing something else?
Best regards.

Hi Ichiro-san,

I think you need to ensure that Thetis has been fully uninstalled and re-installed.

Use the windows App to uninstall Thetis.
Deleted the directory C:\Program Files\OpenHPSDR\Thetis 
Delete the directory C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Roaming\OpenHPSDR
Re-install the Thetis 2.9.0.8 Release from Richie (https://github.com/ramdor/Thetis/releases/tag/v2.9.0.8). The pre release doesn't exist any more but we only the skins infrastructure. 
Unzip the Thetis 2.9.0.8-beta1 HL2 (MI0BOT) release in to a separate directory (c:/OpenHPSDR)

The re-install should bring up a DOS window showing calculations for the DSP software.

Cheers

Hello Reid,

Thank you for your instruction.
I tried as you taught me, but the result was the same.
I tried it on a different PC and still got the same error.
Is there any possibility that I am missing something?
What is the case of what is written in the Error.txt file?
If you have time, I would appreciate it if you could tell me.

I wonder since it is different error than where this thread started, now mentioning fonts, if it is now some issue with Kanji/Katakana/Hiragana? I assume the Windows OS is Japanese?

The OS is the Japanese version of windows 11.
2.9.0.3 works fine, but later versions give the same error.

Sorry Ichiro-san, I haven't done windows development for 20 years, so I can't comment on the font issue. I might be worth while asking on the official Thetis development forum if anyone has seen this issue.

Looks like the same was seen over there last year, but never discussed further.

Hello Reid, KD,

Thank you for the useful information.
I have also looked into the following information.
https://community.apache-labs.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=4600&start=90
I found G7KLJ's version 2.9.0.31 mentioned in this thread and installed it and it works.
