This may be too little too late for this thread but.. I sometimes encounter Apps behaving this way and it's normally because the binary is not executable. I just "cd /Applications/BBEdit.app/Contents/ MacOS/" and "ls -la" to see if the BBEdit has lost it's execute permissions and "chmod +x BBEdit" if it has... Don't ask me why this happens... I've no idea!

Am I looking in the wrong place? Is there any other log file that BBEdit might write to? Or that the system would write to?

Do console.log or system.log have anything pertinent to say?

Not that I could find. I removed (well, renamed) the Application Support/BBEdit folder and also the plist files in Preferences/ and there was no difference that I could see. I seriosuly doubt this is a pref issue because, as I said, BBedit never actually launches.

So the only mention of bbedit in /var/log/* is the sudo command I used to search for any occurrence of 'bbedit'

It may not mention 'bbedit' per se. I find sometimes that if I just watch console.log in Console.app during the launch of a balky application that it'll tell me something useful. Often it's something to do with java going haywire, which probably isn't the issue here, but anyway, it was just a thought.
