Corrupt Entries in Log Crashes RUMLog

Unread post by G4FSU »

After importing a Cabrillo file into my master log, I have about 200 QSOs which are all corrupt at the end of my log. I presume the cbr file was corrupt somehow but the data still imported. The dates are all 08-01-0001 and there is nonsense in most of the fields.

Unfortunately, whenever I click on any of the entries (I want to delete them), RUMLog shuts down with an 'An exception of class NilObjectException was not handled. The application must be shut down' message.

Is there anything I can do to get rid of the offending entries in the log?

Many thanks & 73,

You can try to use a SQLite database tool to delete the corrupted entries. When you are not familiar with database works, you can send me the log and I will try to recover it.

Further it would be helpful to e-mail me your Cabrillo file, just to see where the problem was.

Hi Tom,

Many thanks for the returned file. It all looks OK now. I'll avoid the cbr import in the future & keep to adif as you recommend.

Excellent support for an excellent programme!
