seeing this since (late) RW 5 :mad:

now and then (more now than then!) the app crashes while updating stacks (not the plugin, individual stacks)  
almost always if there’s more than 1 stack needing update, almost never if there’s just 1

usually first stack is installed fine then… RW crashes while updating the second (… or third one)  
happens both clicking “Update All” or just one by one

:rolleyes:

What version of the Stacks plugin do you have?

latest (3.1.0) installed before upgrading to RW7

but, as I said, it’s been happening for years now!

hi Greg

yes: already been through this many times these last _years_  
typical scenario where one gets bounced between RealMac and Isaiah, both promising to take care of it  
though here I am once more (and, “lately”, only complaining when major version release are issued by RM or YH)

thanks anyway, both you and zeebe 🙂

RW6 + Mavericks: happened ALL the time  
RW6 + El Capitan: stopped happening

If you are getting a crash report window, make sure to send this report to RMS.

We’re looking in to this one. If someone has a crash report they can send to [support@yourhead.com](mailto:support@yourhead.com) or our slack channel please do, thanks.

… and the ballet starts (once more :-/ )

Isaiah told me the crash log contains nothing about updating stacks :-/  
weird as… it’s the one and only RW7 crash log I have (in fact RW7 only crashed once… so far :-p ) and time is right a few minutes before my OP here

sent the log to Realmac support too  
fingers crossed 😐  
(hhhhmmmm… I think… been there, seen this all already)
