[Bug]: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'progress') when switching EPUB chapters #500
Description
Preflight Checklist
- I have searched the issue tracker for a bug report that matches the one I want to file, without success.
OpenComic Version
1.6.5
Operating System
Windows11
Installed via
.exe
Steps to reproduce
- Open a specific folder containing multiple comic files (specifically EPUB format).
- Open one of the EPUB files and scroll/navigate to the very last page.
- Attempt to turn the page again to trigger the transition to the next file ).
Expected Behavior
The application should smoothly transition to the next file/chapter in the folder without any errors.
Actual Behavior
An error window "TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'progress')" pops up repeatedly. All buttons and UI elements within the software become unresponsive. The only way to stop the popups is to force-close the application or press 'Esc' to exit.
Error message
Additional Information
I have performed further testing to narrow down the cause:
- PDF Files: Folders containing only PDF files work perfectly with no errors during transitions.
- Mixed Folders (PDF + EPUB): When performing the same action on an EPUB file within a mixed folder, the same error popup appears, but interestingly, it only pops up once instead of looping.
- EPUB Folders: The error consistently loops and crashes the UI as described.
Attempted Fixes (Failed):
- Running the application with Administrator privileges.
- Performing a clean uninstallation (including deleting app data folders) and reinstalling.
