File blocs 5 crash when open it in blocs 6

I Need Help
1

Hello,

I’m building a site with blocs 5.

I just upgraded to version 6 of blocs and when I try to open my file (blocs 5), application 6 crashes. Is this normal?

Is there anything I need to do to open a site created with version 5?

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Have a nice day.

Would you be able to share a copy of your project file so that we can check what is causing the crash?

We will be issuing patches regularly to address any outstanding issues in Blocs V6.

Hi @Norm same problem here.
Trying to open every Blocs5 file get an instant crash of Blocs6.
Opening a new project goes flawless.
So there’s something with old Blocs5 file that trigger the crash.
Any suggest?

Exactly the same problem for me

Update:
if I create a new empty project wit Blocs5 and then try to open it with Blocs6 it does it very smooth. So the trouble is with old full blocs5 files.

I’ve tried the same procedure and it’s identical for me. :neutral_face:

Guys there is a fix out 6.0.1 should stop projects crashing. It’s related to old legacy assets being removed from the core of Blocs. If your project has them in, it can cause a crash.

You can download it here.

It could be that you upgraded Blocs 5 to 6 without updating Blocs 5 to the latest version before you go ahead and do the upgrade. It might have been that. That is the only thing that I think of at the moment. @Norm will figure this out for you. You are in good hands!
