I've had no help from MarketCircle Support at all on this - no response to any emails I send.

Using DL 3.0.3, upgraded to 3.1. Now my db (the sample one works fine) won't launch. Open Base Mgr gives me this error log snippet:

"2006-07-31 16:20:43 -0400: &DyerBase: Recovering Data...{}

Any help?

Hi Ed,

There is a relatively painless way to get Daylite going again: Please download Daylite 3.1 again and reinstall. It will replace OpenBase with the correct version. (I would also recommend that you backup your database).

There have been a few users who have this issue and it seems they've all been caused by the installation of the SOHO series of applications by Chronosnet. Those apps install a much later version of OpenBase and Daylite is currently not compatible with that version.

I hope this helps!

I've actually already done this twice. I wouldn't normally bother jumping in OpenBase Mgr otherwise, but the normal trouble-shooting methods did not appear to be working.

I believe the current installer of DL 3.1 includes OpenBase 9.1.something....ideas?

So what version of OpenBase is installed on your machine?

OpenBase Mgr says 9.1.6 (build #1) 01.12.2006

I assume DayLite 3.1 should have installed version 9.2? I'd previously removed all instances of OpenBase that I could find, as a trouble-shooting step after having reinstalled DL twice, but to no avail.

The separate daylitedatabaseengine installer says I have the same version, so nothing will be installed. Running the installation appears to "upgrade" the installation, but nothing changes.

I don't want to have to sack my entire contact and calendar database! Again, the sample works fine - do I simply need to get OpenBase 9.2? The current version offered on their site is only 9.1.5 I think. What gives?

Have you actually gone back to the MarketCircle web site to download the latest version of Daylite? It changed only 2 days ago.

I believe it should be installing OB 9.1.9, not 9.1.6. It sounds like you aren't using the most recent installer.

I apologize for not responding earlier. The 3.1.1 release of DayLite worked beautifully. I guess I got an early-ish release of 3.1.

Thanks again for the help.
