JavaScript Error

Post by tr26 »

Hi,

I am getting a JavaScript error when opening the Show/Update Interlinear Display window on the Bible Window. Thoughts?

Thanks, TR

I am just another Bible Analyzer user, but my thoughts are that you should include a screen shot of the errror message when it occurs.

If you're on Windows, you should be able to press the Prt Scr key to copy the error message to the clipboard, or to invoke the Windows Snipping tool, or to invoke the Greenshot snipping tool, or something similar.

If you ignore the error, does it cause any problems in using Bible Analyzer?

I had a problem with JavaScript errors on Windows 11 some time ago, but they disappeared after updating Windows 11. Are you on Windows?

Eric,

Thanks for the feedback, ironically, it seemed to fixed itself. I updated Java a couple days ago, still occurring and got Win11 update yesterday.
Interlinear always worked, but gave the error on first opening of the session, and no further error. It was just a nuisance.

Have a blessed day, TR

Nuts! It's broke again. Interlinear display is not working. "Error running JavaScript: The group or resource is not in the correct state to perform the requested operation. (0x800713f)."

I reset BA to default and it did not resolve the issue. Thoughts?

Thanks for any help, TR

This is general advice for all generic error messages: Submit the error message to Google, including "double quotes" around the entire error message as it appears in the alert window:

https://www.google.com/search?q=%22Erro ... 13f%29.%22

You will get a lot of help on how to fix it, including different methods to try from easy to more difficult.

Here is how Google responded to my query:

You can also perform the same search on YouTube:

Hope this helps.

Eric,

I'm stunned. I did not know that BA leverages msedgeview2.exe to display the Interlinear Bible. I've disallowed the msedgeview process because it opens about 6-8 process sessions which significantly decreases my computer's performance by consuming much memory resources (there's other background activity in msedgeview2.exe tying up more resource). Other applications seemingly do that as well using msedgeview. Interfering with msedgeview by limiting the number of processes (I've tried limiting to 3), still interferes with normal application activity. It's a all or none issue with msedgeview2.exe (stop or restricted it, application fails to perform properly).

I don't use MS Edge, but use Mozilla products that seem to not consume as much memory resources. I really like Bible Analyzer, will have to forego the Interlinear capability, unless there's an alternative (Tim, hopefully you could provide more guidance).

Thanks for the feedback and blessings to you, TR

Wow, I got some feedback from another Tech where their product was leverage msedgeview2.exe and this was there solution... which works and works for BA... problem solved.

You can remove or rename the WebView2Loader.dll file in "application's" directory but in that case the legacy IE engine (instead of Chromium) will be used for displaying HTML.

Of course, that will work until legacy IE is pulled from our computers. I've asked if they can leverage Mozilla Products to do the same...

Blessings to you, TR

Yes, Bible Analyzer uses the Edge webview backend for a couple windows and the ScripturePad/Notes editors. On Mac and Linux their respective webkit/webview backends are used. These native HTML page renderers are required for their JavaScript capabilities that Bible Analyzer utilizes. It is pretty standard for apps that utilize an html display to use the native OS backend. The Mozilla framework is not native and must be installed but Bible Analyzer could not use it because its wxPython/wxWidgets framework will not support it.

If WebView2Loader.dll is removed the OS will fallback to the IE 7 engine but IE is inferior and does not have the same JavaScript capabilities. Some functions in the Interlinear viewer and the Editors will not work. And, yes, the IE engine will eventually be removed from Windows.

Thanks Tim, appreciate your hard work. I only moved the DLL from the BA Application Folder to a "Master Stash Folder " in the BA Folder.

Blessings, TR
