You have a macro, that switches to a screen that doesn't exists please check all you macros for the switchToScreen event and make sure the targets screens names are correct

@Jamie Newbon: what do u mean macro? you mean the names of my computers are not correct? actually i didnt change the names and all worked very well this morning...and then suddenly cannot launch...and i am sure my computer names are correct...what about the first sentence, cannot read configurations? what does that mean?

In the [Server Configuration] -> [Hotkeys] tab, make sure all the hotkeys that have switchToScreen events target an existing screen

Following example shows that my Ctrl+a hotkey will switch to the screen called Bahamut. If the screen called Bahamut didn't exist in the [Screens and Links] tab I would get your error until I either updated the hotkey to an existing screen, deleted the hotkey, or added the missing screen to the [Screens and Links] tab

Hi!

Just ran into this one myself. Any possibility of adding some better output at info level for this one? It's pretty cryptic right now:

Any output mentioning that there is something wrong with the keybinds or macros would help.

Thanks,
