Audacity Forum

Hi

I was really satisfied with the previous stable version, but nevertheless just upgraded.
I'm running Audacity on the newest Ubuntu-Studio release (via QjackCtl).
Sadly, since the upgrade I can't save any more projects, because Audacity crashes when trying.

When I start it via shell, the output is this:

If this is for production work, I'd highly recommend that you go back to the previous stable version.
if you just want it for testing purposes, then I'd suggest that you get the latest source code from GitHub and build it yourself (https://github.com/audacity/audacity).
If Audacity 2.1.3-alpha-May 24 2016 was obtained from the Ubuntu repository, then it might be worth sending them a bug report.

Hi Steve

Thanks for the response - hence I really should get some editing work done, I followed your advice and downgraded to the previous version.
I guess, I should let them know though.

Thanks for the report. I build HEAD from sources every day on Ubuntu 14.04 32-bit and that has just started happening to me too. It only happens when first saving a project containing audio. If you save an empty project first with Save Project As, then you can add audio and resave the project OK.

I will put it on our bug tracker.
