Something has changed between JTALERT 2.50.7 and 2.50.8. After a QSO is concluded, logging causes Logic to crash.
After restarting Logic I can then manually use the longing window of WSJT-X to log the last QSO. This problem also
exists in all later updates to JTALERT including 2.50.9. I am currently running Logic 10.0.3 and WSJT-X 2.5.2.

Anyone else run into this.

Hi--

I understand that JTAlert monitors the ADIF file created by WSJT-X, just like LOGic does. Is this correct? Then there is no connection between JTAlert, and LOGic?

Do you get an error in LOGic? What does it say? If you take JTAlert out of the picture, does LOGic and WSJT-X then work?

I am guessing that JTAlert is locking the ADIF file and not allowing LOGic or anything else to share it. I would notify the JTAlert authors if you haven't already.

Tnx & 73,

Dennis WN4AZY

Shalom Dennis,
I am uploading one image (WSJT-X Logging Error.jpg) which shows the error message received from “Logic”.
Another 2 files:
(wsjtx_log - Error.ADI) which is the file used by WSJT
(Complete - Error.ADI) which is the file used by JTAlert
There are 3 entries that are included. The first is a QSO with S01WS which was logged successfully into Logic when using JTAlert v2.50.7. The last 2 were with SQ7BCB and were not recorded in Logic when using JTAlert v2.50.8.
I am using Logic v10.0.3 and WSJT-X v2.5.2.
I hope this helps you out.

I sent the following message to VK3AMA 6/12/2021 but have not had a reply:
Shalom Laurie,

I've been trying to figure out how to use Groups.io but I don't seem to be able to "break the code" on how to use it.
I am using "Logic" logging software for many years and it have been working smoothly logging FT-8 QSO's made on WSJT-X/ JTALERT.
However, when version 2.50.8 of JTALERT was installed, LOGIC crashed when writing the log entry. It is still a problem with 2.50.9.
I remember that to get Logic to work with WSJT-X/JTALERT, some special software implementation was required on LOGIC to make it compatible.
Something changed between 2.50.7 and 2.50.8 that directly effects how LOGIC interacts with WSJT-X/JTALERT.
Do you have any idea what that could be.
73,
Jim 4X1RU

Thanks!

Unfortunately the LOGic error doesn't tell us a lot. There might be something in the Windows event viewer.

I will install JTAlert and try to learn more. It will take a few days unfortunately.

How do the three programs interact? Why does JT-Alert have its own ADIF file? Why doesn't it use the same file that WSJT-X makes, which LOGic uses?

Tnx & 73,

Latest version of JTAlert (2.50.0) no longer causes Logic to crash when logging QSO's.
Thanks,

Jim

When I first tried JTAlert 2.51.0 it worked. The next day it was the same problem again. Still not out of the deep water.

Newest Version 2.51.2 still causing LOGic to crash

Last version that does not cause LOGic crash appears to be 2.50.7 (which is also the last version that was downloadable as either 64 or 32 bit versions)- https://hamapps.com/JTAlert/
