Exception on start up

Version 4
1

Hi,
Sambapos is throwing an exception on start up:

“There is a problem.
Message:
The type initializer for ‘ExtentPlaceholderCreator’ threw an exception”

Its version 4.1.82 and its on a windows 8 tablet.

Ive had this running for about a year with no issues. Ive uninstalled, reinstalled, deleted all the folders, done this many times…

Help appreciated…

Can you click details tab and provide the real error log?

There is no details tab. Just a standard dialog box with an ok button. When I click this it shuts down…

From the log file :slight_smile:

Seems like a file corruption. I’m not sure which library contains that file but a SQL Server or .net framework re-installation will probably solve it.
