when opening it with beta26: please put a tty renderer into your root first. please report if the message is printed into that renderer. i would guess: yes.
note that alpha vesions are more verbose. in final betas errors like this won’t throw an error message but should recover from such a thing easily.
so it is quite normal that more errors show up in alpha versions, just to attract our attention. however, like i said: this error can’t be fixed as long as we don’t know how you got into that situtation of having a corrupted patch.
@gregsn,yes,you’re right,i put a tty renderer into my root (beta26),printed out those
