Hi, I just installed the update, and RW can’t stop crashing while uploading or exporting a website. I urgently need an installer for a previous version, where can I get it ? Thank you for your help. Best wishes, Fred ---

I have the same problem sinds this afternoon after upgrading to 7.1.6. With this version this also happens when I want to test the connection to my server in the publishing setup and also if want to export a project to a local folder at my harddisk. And las but not least, this happens with all projects I want to publish. I installed a previous version but this version is also crashing each and every time when publishing. Jeu ---

@fredalpi You can get all prior downloads here: [https://realmacsoftware.com/rapidweaver/releasenotes/](https://realmacsoftware.com/rapidweaver/releasenotes/) and just install them over top of current version. I haven’t had problems with the auto / in-app installer, but there are a few here who recommend getting your updates via this URL anyway. @Jeu I saw in a seperate thread that an OSX security update fixed things for another user, so you could double check that you don’t have waiting updates elsewhere. Just a wild guess though… ---

I have the same problem. As soon as I uploaded ver 7.16, I can no longer publish. Will try going back to 7.15 ---

Sadly have to confirm 7.1.6 crashes on publish. Thought I’d give it a go but can confirm the same as others. Now gone back to 7.1.5 and all is fine. (El Capitan with very latest [24-10-16] Security update) Update - 7.1.7 fixes it for me. ---

Thank you Jabostick. I went back to 7.15 and now I can publish again… Mary ---

If everyone experiencing this can just amend their post with what version OSX you’re using that might be helpful. ---

I just updated RW to 7.1.6 and it continues to crash when I publish. I can’t export the site or publish. ---

My Rapidweaver program crashes when I try and publish…is anyone else experiencing this? Yesterday it worked fine, the problem only started after applying the update this morning. **Additional Info** \*\*\* To verify that this is not a problem with something on my site, I opened one that I have not edited for several days. I then right clicked on a page and set it to be marked as changed…with no changes made. I then published and it crashed on me again. So this is two completely unrelated sites that cause the same behavior with the program. ---
