From looking at the log I saw that it was choking on invisible .onetoc2 files in each folder that must have been created with Microsoft OneNote. I recursively deleted all of them with a shell script but it still crashes at about 7% of the import without those files.

Mind you this is about 200MB of probably over 100k hands, so it might do me some good to split up the files in mini folders so it can take it in chunks. Still, it would be cool if the app were smart enough to ignore files that it can't read, without just crashing.

At any rate, I checked out the log file after the latest import and there are no errors. It just decides to stop 7% in and the program crashes without any errors reported. I'm also wondering, how does the app handle duplicate hands? Since this is taking many tries, I hope the app doesn't see two identical hands as two instances.

That would be amazing for those who wish to analyze their hands in the non-free Poker apps out there! Maybe eventually someone could figure out how to get a HUD going in another program.

Now this might be an incredibly stupid question, but since my installation of FPDB is working off my existing Posgres install from PT4, is it at all possible for PT4 to read the PTDB since it's part of the same universe? My guess is no.

Yeah, it would be nice if all the people that donated hundreds of hours of their time to this free project were infallible.

Duplicates should be correctly recognised as such and stored exactly once.

Unfortunately due to the way it's done, the error log is wiped every time FPDB is run. It's possible there are errors reported there that you can see if you open it using notepad (or whatever) rather than running FPDB to look at it through the help menu.

Alternatively (or if that doesn't work out) if you can isolate a particular file causing problems and email it to me I can investigate further.

I would be shocked if the PT4 people bother to support the FPDB database schema, so you are almost certainly correct.

Yikes, looks like I hit a nerve. Sorry about that. I'm of course very appreciative of any free software out there, especially one that helps me analyze hands that I normally couldn't have.

I'll check the error log file while it's importing to see if I can catch anything. But I do have an update. All of my sessions are appearing, but only about 1/3 of the hands. How could that be?

My first guess was that the progress bar was incorrect and all my hands really were imported, but given the fact that it crashed anyway, perhaps all the files were recognized but not fully imported. Maybe it doesn't like the folder hierarchy? I'll try a few more methods and report back.

One other thing, PT support got back to me and said that old Everleaf hands should import without errors. Are the Grand Poker hands actually Everleaf formatted, or is FPDB doing some conversion under the hood?

OK. Let's be friends!

Hand histories are the units of import, but the order is not necessarily chronological. So you probably have about 1/3 of your hand history files imported, spanning all your sessions. Or maybe there's some other explanation.

IIRC, they're really close, but I had to do some minor tweaking to make it work.

Ok, I figured out what was going wrong and got everything working.

I did indeed have only 1/3 of the hands in but now I have them all. The importer was choking on MTT hand history files. I don't know why it won't take them, but they were easy enough to root out and delete.

For some reason Grand Poker names MTT HH files as 1.txt, 2.txt, etc. These specific files cause the importer to crash every time, without any error reported.

Incidentally, it was handling files it couldn't read properly. I just assumed that's why it was choking. Sorry again!

Anyway, if you like I could paste an MTT HH here or I can PM it to you if you'd like to investigate.

I wouldn't recommend pasting it in the thread, but sure, PM or email me - philip.roberts@gmail.com - I don't think I had any MTT hand histories to work with before so it's not surprising if there's something wonky with those. Much appreciated.

Any chance we are going to see a fix for Bovada's recent change to their HH formatting? I appreciate your hard work on this Free software and completely understand if its not high on your priority list.

I have merged Chaz's Bovada changes, but had issues with some other merges and haven't put it all together for a release yet.

Hi there,

is it possible to mark hands while playing for later reviewing?

Thx and regards

Not that I'm aware of, no.

Are there any repos left, every repo on the wiki are 404..

Hey guys. Have been running fpdb for years with pokerstars, but over the last several months my hud has stopped working completely. when i start the import it tells me what tables i am at but the HUD main window only says "closing this window will exit this hud" i know when it is working that window also states what tables you are at. and in turn i have no hud on any table. any clues? or additional info? i tried deleting the config file but to no avail.

i actually fixed it. deleted the folder in appdata, reinstalled and re imported my hands and it works like a charm.

Hi Phil, where to report bugs about the 0.41.0-rc7 Windows pre-release?

Here is fine, if you want to be thorough and ensure I don't forget you can use the github issue tracker.

Thanks, so, I've just started using the 0.41.0-rc7 Windows pre-release. The bugs I encountered are that

1) FPDB HUD stops working after I get tranferred to a new table.

2) Randomly crashes (although not super often).

Error log files are clean, I can provide the other logs (HUD and FPDB).

Windows 10 x64
PokerStars

Is there away to have a different hud for 6max and full ring?

Not that I can think of, no.

Log files would be helpful. Is (2) happening when you click the HUD popup? That's a known issue (of me being stupid) with rc7.

It seems that I cannot attach files, I'm not sure why. Any ideas how I can post them? (Posting them on this reply is character number forbidding)

I'm not really sure but, I think not. I will observe it a little more when it happens and get back on that.

Seriously, thank you for all this man, your work and time means a lot to us

You might need a minimum number of posts before you can do certain things. I'm pretty sure there's a minimum before you can include images, for example.

You could post it to a pastebin and link here (if that works, maybe not for reasons above) or you can email me: philip.roberts@gmail.com

Maybe I will spot something in the log files, too.

Also I will mention that the error logs get overwritten every time you run FPDB, so if you want to find crash errors in there you have to check them before starting FPDB again.

Email sent

Good thing you posted this message, the mail went in my spam folder

Nothing jumps out at me from the logs, maybe some oblique clues about the table change problem but nothing to explain crashes. I'll take a closer look when I have more time.

Is there a way to save different hud layouts for 6max and full ring?
