Problem with node/jsuci and uci2wb under WB?

Post by Guenther »

Somehow they don't work together? Node crashes immediately after starting via uci2wb.
No problem when using Polyglot instead.

Just noticed this today after trying tomitankChess too.
A while ago I changed all uci entries from polyglot to uci2wb here,
but did not test all yet for incompatibilities (a few others also only work with PG)

Regrettably I don't get more info than below with debug on:
(note that Lozza_117a-64 is just a renamed node/jsuci.exe)

Code: Select all
