So I tried 1.4 with setting up a VPN and it turns out that it keeps crashing after it tries to connect. Any fixes?

Hi Vicpdx17,

Are you able to provide us with any errors? If you watch the log, can you see how far into the connection Viscosity get's before it crashes?

Also, what version of Windows is this on? Any extra information would be a great help.

Regards,

Eric

It crashes on Windows 7 64-bit. Pretty much what happens is I used it with a websites vpn settings and when I started viscosity connecting it would then crash and say it has stopped responding. Now I dont remember the crash number but would you think it would have to do with a network driver not being installed correctly? I Had to reinstall windows 7 cause I couldent get the tap-network driver installed.

Hi Vicpdx17,

Viscosity should work around the driver not being installed, but if a reinstall of Windows fixed the problem, there could have been another problem.

Thank you for getting back to us though, we'll try and break a copy of Windows 7 and see if we can reproduce the problem so we can make sure Viscosity doesn't crash if this happens to anyone else for the next release.

Cheers,

Eric
