B4J Question [ABMaterial] Works in debug, not in release (ABM 5.0)

[John Naylor]

B4J 9.8
ABMaterial 5.0
Openjdk version "11.0.1"

Scratching my head with this - My ABMaterial app works fine in debug but when run in Release it doesn't go past the swirling loader image.

I've tried with & without SSL, I've tried running the template from the ABM for dummies thread, I've tried other apps I've made with ABM and all give the same result. If I roll back to ABM 4.51 the problem goes away.

I even uploaded the compiled .jar to my VPS and ran it there with the same result.

The log file doesn't show any errors. Any ideas of where to look?

TIA

Spoiler: Release mode log

Have you copied the complete www folder and the .needs files to your VPS too?

I sure have. I also cleared the entire folders and rebuilt the app on my dev system, cleared the VPS and uploaded everything. Same result on both dev box and VPS - Just the swirl.

Ahhh - So I just tried compiling *without* my donor key and everything has started working again. Deleting the gz files and running with the donor key produces the same issue as before.

Got it!

In ABMApplication there's a line....

ABM.ActivateUseCDN(DonatorKey, "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/RealAlwaysbusy/[email protected]/")

It's hanging there. If I comment it out everything works as expected. Is there a suggested update for the line?

So I asked @alwaysbusy to add a CDN for ABMaterial 5.0. I also had to turn off the CDN to start it.
