UNCAUGHT EXCEPTION - HOW TO FIX

Below are a list of Uncaught Exceptions - And how to fix them

If your error matches an image, please do not report these .. we know about them ..

I am using a variety of different PeerBlock versions in the images. If part of your error says " File .\listproc.cpp " then look for the image with " File .\listproc.cpp " and follow the instructions below that image. Note: the Line: number (where shown) may vary by version.

You can also find the "Type" of your error message in the list below and click on the matching link to find a specific solution in this topic or (where that does not exist) a search link for matching topics.

This Type is also associated with many other Function names.

A search for the Type [forums.peerblock.com] will find topics dealing with nearly all of them (about 4 pages of results, newest first).

The following is a list of Function names. For better targeted (but possibly less complete) results, search for the name or a part of the Message text. Many topics returned will contain the exact explanation/fix; the rest will often have advice or some suggestion(s) but, unfortunately, little or no indication as to what - if anything - worked.

and




This error can mean multiple things.

- You could have duplicate lists.

OR

- Anti-virus/Anti-malware software is scanning the lists while PeerBlock is trying to use them.
Try adding PeerBlock to your exemption list inside your anti-virus/anti-malware software.

---

If it's a duplicate lists, follow the instructions below.
This can be fixed by doing ONE of the following options.

Option One
1. Look through your lists and make sure you do not have the same URL's


Option Two

** Warning this is intended to convert all know list URL's into iblocklist URL's **
Example:
" bluetack.co.uk/config/ads-trackers-and-bad-pr0n.gz "
into
" list.iblocklist.com/lists/bluetack/ads-trackers-and-bad-pr0n "
** If you do not wish to do this, please do Option One **

BEFORE running Option Two (Using PeerGuardian as it shows all the lists's URL's )



-----------------------------------------------------------------------


AFTER running Option Two ( Using PeerBlock )




1. Make sure PeerBlock is closed
2. Go to your PeerBlock install folder (C:\Program Files\PeerBlock)
3. Open your "peerblock.conf" (This can be done by Right clicking it -> Open -> And selecting Notepad)
4. Look at the image below and change the highlighted number to a number between 135 and 267



5. Click File -> Save
6. Close out of the file
7. Restart PeerBlock and you will receive a message like this



8. Click Yes.
9. You're Done

class std::runtime_error
Message: unable to parse configuration
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



This error means that your " peerblock.conf " is corrupted
There is currently no way to fix than other than to Update to the latest PeerBlock 1.0+ Beta.
The current Beta version of PeerBlock is set to create a back-up your your config, and if the main config is corrupted, PeerBlock will load the back-up, preventing this error from happening.

1. Make sure PeerBlock is closed.
2. Delete the file "cache.p2b" in your PeerBlock install folder ( "C:\Program Files\PeerBlock" is the default location); do NOT delete anything else.
3. Done.
4. Restart PeerBlock

Reports of this error message usually come in bunches when a list is corrupted/broken.

** See this thread [forums.peerblock.com] for a discussion of one recent occurrence. **

Note: the following steps will be quite tedious, especially if you have many lists. Attempting to download the list(s) in question may make the problem go away without having to do anything else, so try that first. The problem list(s) may be fixed before you can complete this procedure, so you might just try waiting a while before continuing.

A. Determine whether a current list is failing.

1. Close PeerBlock
2. Goto "C:\Program Files\PeerBlock\list" and delete all lists except permallow/permblock
3. Start PeerBlock
4. If the error still exists then it's one of the current lists.

B. Determine which list it is [this may be tedious and annoying]

1. Delete the lists again except permallow/permblock
2. Disconnect from the internet [so no list downloads are possible]
3. Start PeerBlock
4. Go into the list manager, disable everything except permallow/permblock
5. Reconnect to the internet
6. Enable one list and update it
7. Repeat step 6 until the error occurs [if it does]

When/If you hit a broken list, PLEASE report the name of the list in the Support forum here, or on our IRC channel via [webchat.freenode.net] or at iblocklist.com [or wherever the list originated].

Whether this exception Type/class occurs with a Message shown above or with a similar one that isn't listed here, it means that your "history.db" (the file that stores all your blocks/allows history) has become corrupted.

--
Possible causes:
Harddrive/CPU under heavy load. (This happened to one of the users while doing video editing or something)
Anti-virus software real time protection (You can put PeerBlock.exe and the PeerBlock directory ("C:\Program Files\PeerBlock") on the exception list)
History.db file growing to some outrageous size (19 GB for example (This happened to one of the users))
The drive is actually malfunctioning
--

This can be fixed by doing the following:

A. For PeerBlock 1.1 or newer.

1. Make sure PeerBlock is closed.
2. Go to your PeerBlock install folder ( C:\Program Files\PeerBlock )
3. Delete the "history.db"
4. Run PeerBlock.
5. Go to the Settings Tab.
6. History Group
7. Pick ANY options
8. Set "History Size" to a reasonable value. I recommend anything between 50-100.

Please look at the image below, I have highlighted in red what to change.



8. Click Save
9. You're Done.

B. For PeerBlock 1.0 or older (which you should NOT be using)

1. Make sure PeerBlock is closed.
2. Go to your PeerBlock install folder ( C:\Program Files\PeerBlock )
3. Delete the "history.db"
4. Run PeerBlock
5. Go to the Settings Tab
6. History Group

First drop-down list

Pick one of the following ( I recommend " Log None " as it stops the issue permanently )

-Log None
-Log Allowed
-Log Blocked
-Log Allowed & Blocked

Second drop-down list

Pick one of the following
-Remove
-Archive & Remove

7. Click Save
8. You're Done

which will take you to prior discussions of these two issues.
