Verified issue does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

What happened?

When I fist downloaded this app I spent a few hours setting up my budget and then left it alone for a couple weeks. I went to open the app again today for the first time since the day I downloaded it, but I kept getting an error upon attempting to open the app. It opens up to a screen with the text "Opening last budget..." with an error stating something went wrong internally. It will just sit on this screen indefinitely. I've attempted to restart the app and got the same screen upon opening. I even deleted the software and every file associated with the app and redownloaded it from the web attempting to start fresh, but I still get this screen upon startup.

How can we reproduce the issue?

The error screen is the first thing to appear upon opening the app.

Where are you hosting Actual?

Desktop App (Electron)

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Desktop App (Electron)

Operating System

Mac OSX

Strange. If you click the view menu and click Toggle Developer Tools (or press Alt + Command + I) what does it say in the console window?

@MaceKey @panuccixm would you mind posting what logs you see in the browser? As mentioned in the other comment, you can press alt + shift + I, or press F12 and go to the "console" tab. Those logs might provide more information.

Thanks!

@MaceKey @panuccixm¿te importaría publicar qué registros ves en el navegador? Como se mencionó en el otro comentario, puede presionar alt + shift + I, o presionar F12 e ir a la pestaña "consola". Esos registros podrían proporcionar más información.

¡Gracias!
