[Ham-Mac] RUMlog issues

[Dave Wright]

I should clarify a bit.  

If you haven't run RUMrouter or EditDXCC, you won't have plist files for them.  To get to this plist file, especially if the library directory is hidden (it has been since the release of 10.8, I'm not sure which version you're running), is simple:

From the Terminal, enter the following command

cd Library/Preferences -  This takes you to the directory
rm RumLogOwn.plist - This removes the plist file

Then close terminal and reboot (not particularly necessary, but usually a good idea).  When the machine starts back up, try to run RUMlog again and see if that clears your issues.

Unknown DXCC ??” and another popup says “An exception of class NilObjectException was not handled. The application must shut down.” I did enter a valid DXCC callsign and I suspect that the error is because the program could not find DXCC.rsd. However, DXCC.rsd is located in the RUMlog-5.2.6 folder in my home directory so I don’t understand why the error occurred.
