LoTW In Broken?

Post by K1JX »

It seems like the LoTW In function does not work in the very recent RUMlogNG update. When I click on LoTW In using the mouse or use the keyboard command, nothing happens. It's like the mouse or the keyboard has no effect. No errors or anything of the sort.

LoTW out for new QSOs works as always, with the upload verified separately by logging directly onto the LoTW website.

It worked perfectly before the upgrade. I probably am doing something wrong,

Thanks,

After clicking LoTW in check the Window menu. Most likely the window is hidden somewhere.

I agree with Clarke - Choosing QSL | LoTW in leads to no action in the latest version. (Sending new QSOs to LoTW works just fine, same as always.)

I checked under the Window menu after doing so, per your suggestion - I see only one window, my main log.

I looked everywhere, too. The window must be invisible.

Also using the latest version of Sequoia, although that same version worked fine before upgrading RUMlogNG.

Clarke, which macOS version do you use? Maybe there is a relationship to this: viewtopic.php?p=8765#p8765 ?

macOS 15.8.2 Sequoia. (No Apple Intelligence...)

Here's the thing. Before upgrading to this version of RUMloigNG, it all worked perfectly with this version of macOS which I didn't change.

I just did another test. I have RUMlogNG installed on a second machine running macOS 15.8.2, just as with the station Mac, This is the machine that's connected to the printer for making QSL labels. It hasn't been updated to the latest version of RUMlogNG - it's still on the last one. It doesn't have this problem - works as expected.

Just to be sure, I restarted the station computer in Safe Mode just in case. No change.

Did you perhaps use a different version of Xcode for the latest RUMlogNG upgrade?

I was able to reproduce this problem on an older machine. The problem probably only appears when using the latest Xcode version with the latest SDK. I found a work around (hopefully). Please check: https://dl2rum.de/RUMlogNG/RUMlogNG.zip (Version 6.6.1 (730))

When you can confirm the fix, I will release it in the app store.

Whatever you did seems to have fixed that issue. The proper window appears and I get LoTW downloads.

Funny thing is, when I moved the application into the Applications folder, I got a pop-up telling me:

The operation can't be completed because some items had to be skipped. For each item, choose File > Get Info, make sure
"Locked" is deselected, and then check the Sharing & Permissions section. When you are sure the items are unlocked and not designated as Read Only or No Access, try again.


So, I made those changes and I still got the message. No idea what might have been skipped.

Don't you love how Apple keeps breaking things that always worked and don't tell you what to do?

I spoke too soon! The LoTW In function has stopped working now.

After a few hours away from the station computer, I tried again. No window. :(

Are you sure you started the latest version?
