error message trying to open jpeg file type, on windows xp sp3, recently installed, with gimp 2.8 installer for windows
Comment 1 André Klapper 2012-05-30 09:22:01 UTC
Does this only happen with one JPEG file, or with any files?
Comment 2 Michael Schumacher 2012-05-30 12:17:54 UTC
If possible, please attach one of the jpeg files here.

Comment 4 Michael Prinzing 2012-06-12 12:11:32 UTC
I have got a similar problem. It onky happens with some jpeg files, not with any. Attached is the error message and a sample image.

IMPORTANT: This problem does *not* appear if the interface language ist set to 'english [en_us]'! I've set it to 'english en_gb]' to produce an english error message.

My system is running Windows XP SP3 German, and I am using GIMP 2.8.0.

Probably a bug in libexif, related to the MakerNotes handling.
Comment 7 Paul 2012-06-17 09:29:31 UTC
I can't get Gimp2.8 to even open anything but a .xcf file. Says jpg is unknown file type...And that's just one of several faults/bugs I've got now. Not happy.

On my Win7 x64 with Gimp 2.8.0 I was able to open the attached image #216199 (comment #5)
by drag-dropping both with English as the interface language, as well as German.
Thus, unable to reproduce.
Comment 9 Michael Schumacher 2012-07-25 22:00:45 UTC
kissaki0, where do you get your GIMP from?
Comment 10 kissaki0 2012-07-25 22:14:44 UTC
The one linked to from the official websites download page
http://www.gimp.org/downloads/
sf.net gimp-win project.
Comment 11 Marc Wachter 2012-08-29 15:53:45 UTC
With language setting to 'english [en_us]' it works.

I normally use German and get an error message that the plugin "file-jpeg.exe" crashed.

Additional message: "Procedure 'file-jpeg-load' ended without return values"
Comment 12 Max Mustermann 2012-08-29 19:26:52 UTC
Is this possibly a duplicate of bug #682454? If so, please mark this bug as RESOVLED DUPLICATE . 
Otherwise translate the reporters error message to English, please. Your answer during the next 6 weeks is appreciated. Thank you.
