Is that from the designer diagnostics console? I don't remember if the designer has its own log file, but look for one in your user directory under .ignition folder ---

Restart your designer and look in the designer console for errors starting the Perspective module. Post those here. (Use the comment editor's "Preformatted text" styling, not screenshots.) ---

You're trying to call a method of a closed object. Usually, it happens when you call the `close()` method of an object (or its owner) prior to calling methods of that object. Another common cause of this exception is working with cached DOM or JavaScript objects. For example, if you navigate to another web page and try to call a method of a DOM or a JavaScript object from the previous page, you will get this exception. It's also possible that the native Chromium process has crashed. In that case, all the objects that belong to that process are closed automatically.

You're on MacOS - presumably Apple Silicon and with a recent OS upgrade. You're going to have to update Ignition (to at least [8.1.44](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/docs/8.1/new-in-this-version#new-in-8144)) to get the newer version of JxBrowser that fully supports Sequoia on Apple Silicon. ---

I have upgraded the versions and it started working. Thank you all. Cheers
