Hi. Can anybody help me with this? I am unable to open any project in the Designer.
Thanks. Michal
Are you in contact with support? This forum isn’t an official support venue, and you’ll probably need to provide a .gwbk to assist in troubleshooting - that’s probably a better option for timely help.
Do you recall creating a project script library/package called nt, by any chance?
Is there any more stacktrace available?

Ignition v8.1.10 (b2021090812)
Java: Azul Systems, Inc. 11.0.11
Hi. Thanks for the reply. This is a full trace of the error. I fresh installed Ignition 8.1.10 on the Ubuntu 20.04 server, tried Designer on two different Windows PCs with the exact same result, which u can see here. I did not contact the support, yet. I really do not know what nt is. Everything on the server and workstation comes directly from installation od the Ignition and Designer Launcher. The error shows up every time I try to open any project. Including the Sample Quick Start Project or a new one just created.
Thanks for your advice.
In the context the designer launcher is creating the new Designer instance, there’s an environment variable set with a non-ASCII name. That’s pretty unusual, especially since you’re encountering this on different machines; maybe it’s something being provided by your AD domain or other Windows setup?
If the Ubuntu install has a desktop environment, you could try launching a designer there. You can see the names and values of the default environment variables on Windows pretty easily:

Hi, i have encountered this issue recently on my laptop. is there a solution for this?
Are you sure it’s the exact error from the OP of this thread? If so, have you looked for environment variables with non-ASCII names, per my last post?
