Hey all,

My PlayOnLinux worked perfect a few hours ago but now it refuses to start and when i try to start it from a terminal i get the following error: "IndexError: list index out of range"

Anybody know what is wrong?

r `{', expected character `='

Hi!
I had the same problem.
And I fixed it with updating to newest PoL.

Hi

PoL is PlayonLinux. There are some straight forward instructions to update on Ubuntu. Just go to the downloads link at the top of the web page, click on the ubuntu icon, and follow the terminal instructions for your version.

However, I've got the same error (above) word for word, in Slackware 13.1. The version of PoL is 3.8.3, using the script from SlackBuilds. I'm not sure I've got a newer PoL to update to.

Removing and reinstalling PoL didn't have an effect, but the window for updating the scripts and downloading the fonts worked, but that was it.

EDIT

Or perhaps I do have a version to update to. Looks like I posted in the middle of an update. pinch:

Hi,
This is a major bug that affect POL 3.8.3 AND 3.8.4.

You should upgrade to 3.8.5.

POL 3.8.4 and 3.8.3 was unable to launch for now.
