That's annoying. You could try to redirect sys.stdout/sys.stderrr to see that provides more information. There is a __boot__.py file in the bundle that is loaded early during startup of the application, adding lines like these should redirect that output to a temporary file: import sys sys.stdout = open('/tmp/program.out', 'w') sys.stderr = open('/tmp/program.err', 'w') Ronald > > Geoffrey
