Downloaded the latest CommandBox on my Win7x64 secondary machine, replaced the existing Box.exe with it, now trying to start CommandBox from an admin cmd prompt gives this error:
ERROR (4.5.0+00198)
For input string: “cd C”
\system\Shell.cfc: line 524
524: line = variables.reader.readLine( interceptData.prompt );
called from \system\Bootstrap.cf: line 159
Any thoughts?
Thanks.
Can you take a screenshot or something? It seem like that’s the entire message. I’ve never seen anything like that.
I’ve also attached the recent portion of the log. Thanks for taking a look.

Did you upgrade from a very old version of CommandBox? (3.x) You have bad characters in your history file. Delete your .history-command history file in the .CommandBox folder and try again. If you would, send me a copy of it first though so I can check what’s in it. CommandBox is supposed to auto-convert the old history format to the new format, but perhaps you have something extra special in yours.
That worked, thank you!
Not sure what version I upgraded from, having been doing much cding on this box, lately, and I deleted the prior installer, but circumstantial evidence says it was 3.8, or possibly 3.3…
I’ve attached the .history-command file, let me know what you see.
Thanks again,
Dave

A co-worker had the same issue the other day. We blew away the whole .CommandBox folder since we/he didn’t have any servers or commands to save. Pretty sure he was 3.8 if that helps at all. Pretty sure it was the same CD type error.
