standalone app and web editor crash when table selected, editor mode

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

All,

 

I've noticed a issue with both the web-editor and the standalone powerapp editor over the last week or so that causes both to crash (regardless of browser in the case of the web-editor).  The standalone editor crashes straight to the windows desktop with no error message.

 

I have a data table pulling from a microsoft azure SQL database and is being filtered based on a pair of dropdown menus

  • This table/menu system has been functioning as expected for several months until recently
  • If I run the current build of the App, then the table will populate once based on the default values of the pull downs, but will not update if the pull down values are changed.
  • If I run an earlier build of the app (from three weeks ago), the table works as expected
  • The hard crashing only occurs in the latest build of the app when in editor mode (both web and standalone), the crash occurs as soon as the offending table is selected.  

 

Whenever I am in editing mode and select the table the entire program crashes with the following error message (taken from the web editor, standalone does not provide feedback).

 

WebAuthoring abnormal termination.

Hopefully, you all can provide a little feedback on what I should be looking at to fix this problem.  I am not sure if it is an error in my SQL database (i doubt it) or some change to PowerApps that was made behind the scenes.

 

Thanks,

    Hi zathomps,

     

    I have seen same issue on other threads.


    If your app works on an earlier build, please consider to restore it to that version as a temporary workaround.


    I am trying to report this issue on my side. I will back to you after I got any updates.

     

    Best regards,
    Mabel Mao
