Re: [GNC-dev] gnucash 3.906-1 fails to launch on clicked icon
I'd go with some security issue. Check it with spctl --assess -vv /Applications/Gnucash.app xattr -p com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Gnucash.app I get /Applications/Gnucash.app/: accepted source=Notarized Developer ID origin=Developer ID Application: John D Ralls (Y9EHT5WMK7) and 01c1;5eeff24b;Firefox;BC474A13-F338-4CD7-BD10-3FB16BB8BFEE You can force acceptance with spctl --add --label 'Approved' /Applications/Gnucash.app xattr -d -r com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Gnucash.app *But* if spctl fails something is wrong with the download as it should be cryptographically signed with my Apple certificate and notarized by Apple.

Re: [GNC-dev] gnucash 3.906-1 fails to launch on clicked icon
No doubt the crash left a crash report in Console, please open a bug (https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Bugzilla#Commenting_on_existing_bugs_or_entering_new_ones) and attach it. Try open Gnucash.app --args --debug And check the trace file again. You might also try creating a new user and trying to start GnuCash as that user just in case there's something about your user configuration that's triggering the problem.

Re: [GNC-dev] gnucash 3.906-1 fails to launch on clicked icon
For future reference, you can do: `cat $TMPDIR/gnucash.trace` on 10.13 (High Sierra) and later, otherwise: `find /var/folders -name gnucash.trace` to get the path. All of this per the wiki: https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Tracefile Regards, Adrien > On Jun 22, 2020 w26d174, at 2:22 PM, Jeff Earickson > wrote: > > John, > > "open Gnucash.app" via command-line gives the same error code 1 in > system.log, nothing else happens. > > I had to hunt for a gnucash.trace file by walking the root directory with > find.

Re: [GNC-dev] gnucash 3.906-1 fails to launch on clicked icon
And I presume no crash report since it seems to be exiting with an error code rather than crashing. Is there anything in the trace file (https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Tracefile)? Does it open if you do open Gnucash.app from the command line?

Re: [GNC-dev] gnucash 3.906-1 fails to launch on clicked icon
John, My System Preferences is (and was) as you recommend, and has been for a while. I've seen this behavior with programs before, including Gnucash, where it flops on the first launch but works thereafter. So, I tried this "jiggle the handle" approach here. No go in this case. Gnucash 3.906 launches flawlessly via command-lien, but coughs up the err code 1 in system.log via clicking every time. No love from it in this corner. :( Jeff Earickson On Sun, Jun 21, 2020 at 7:57 PM John Ralls wrote: > > > > On Jun 21, 2020, at 2:35 PM, Jeff Earickson wrote: > > > > Releases 3.905-1 and previous 3.9x releases > > > > OS: MacOS 10.15.5 (Catalina) MacBook Pro and Mac Mini hardwares > > > > System log says (/var/log/system.log): > > > > *Jun 21 17:15:55 rongovia com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] > > (com.apple.xpc.launchd.oneshot.0x1001.Gnucash[602]): Service exited > > with abnormal code: 1* > > > > > > (could not find other references to Gnucash in any other syslogs) > > > > The problem: When you click on the application icon to launch Gnucash, > you > > get the "verifying Gnucash" scrollbar, then -- nothing.

This is pretty common, the verification blocks the launch. It generally starts right up on the second and subsequent launch attempts, as it did for me just now.

[GNC-dev] gnucash 3.906-1 fails to launch on clicked icon
Releases 3.905-1 and previous 3.9x releases OS: MacOS 10.15.5 (Catalina) MacBook Pro and Mac Mini hardwares System log says (/var/log/system.log): *Jun 21 17:15:55 rongovia com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (com.apple.xpc.launchd.oneshot.0x1001.Gnucash[602]): Service exited with abnormal code: 1* (could not find other references to Gnucash in any other syslogs) The problem: When you click on the application icon to launch Gnucash, you get the "verifying Gnucash" scrollbar, then -- nothing. Checking the syslogs, you see the message above. This is true when the program is installed in /Applications, or clicked on directly from the mounted volume from the dmg. However, the program will start up correctly if you open a terminal window and launch it via command-line, ie cd /Applications/GnucashGnucash.app/Contents/MacOS ./Gnucash I get: *rongovia:MacOS jaearick$ ./Gnucash* *Application Path /Applications/Gnucash/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/./Gnucash* *(process:878): gnc.gui-**WARNING** **: **17:30:10.516**: [mac_set_languages()] Language list: en:en_US:C* and the splash screen and everything else appears normally. I googled about this topic, and it has appeared in the past, but I did not find an actual fix to the problem. FYI, before this turns into a real 4.0 release. -- --- Jeff Earickson ___ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
