Rats. I installed pyobjc 1.4.1a0 from SVN (right over the top of 1.4, using "python setup.py bdist_mpkg --open"), and that didn't fix it either. I'm using py2app 0.3.6.dev_r54 and setuptools 0.6c5, and I'm on PPC, but other than that there are no differences in versions. I know everything's landing in Python 2.5 and building from there (when I type "python" at the prompt, it fires up my 2.5 install, whether I'm root or steve), so I don't think my stock Python 2.3 is causing any problems. py2app version 2.x has never been anywhere near this machine, so I think I'm okay there. I just tried the SillyBalls example, and I got this: 2007-03-01 15:30:09.335 System Preferences[1540] ScreenSaverModules: can't get principalClass for /Users/steve/Library/Screen Savers/SillyBalls.saver 2007-03-01 15:30:09.336 System Preferences[1540] *** +[NSPrefPaneBundle bundleAtPathIsNativeForSystem:]: selector not recognized 2007-03-01 15:30:09.337 System Preferences[1540] Exception raised during posting of notification.

Re: [Pythonmac-SIG] pyObjC and Plugins
Hi Steve, My first thought was to make sure that you were getting the python you just build when you type "python" at the command-line. I've had problems like this before when I had the wrong python in my Path. Then I thought, what if the problem is with the example code? I know I've built that example in the past--I have it running and just used the code yesterday to figure out how to set environmental variables globally in OS X for a friend. So I tried building and installing it, and I got the same problem you did. I haven't had a chance to pore over the log files or svn blame yet, but I would recommend a) trying a different example, and b) looking through the svn history to see what has changed recently in the EnvironmentalPrefs code. The only really recent change was when Ronald added a bundle identifier, but reverting to an version before that has the same problem so the change must be earlier. I have to get the kids (and myself) ready for the day, but I'll check in later if I figure anything else out. --Dethe On 1-Mar-07, at 2:48 AM, Steve Freitas wrote: > Hi Dethe, > > I attempted it again and unfortunately got the same error. > > I actually decided to do a fresh 10.4.8 install, did Xcode, Python 2.5 > and setuptools 0.6c5.

Re: [Pythonmac-SIG] pyObjC and Plugins
Hi Dethe, I attempted it again and unfortunately got the same error. I actually decided to do a fresh 10.4.8 install, did Xcode, Python 2.5 and setuptools 0.6c5. I installed PyObjC 1.4 from source (the stable download off the website), and told it to skip installing py2app. I then used easy_setup to install py2app==dev, which this time took care of all the dependencies, though I think it didn't take those from dev. Did "python setup.py py2app" to the example, copied the result out of dist/ to ~/Library/PreferencePanes, clicked on it and it died with: = Thursday, March 1, 2007 2:45:39 AM US/Pacific = 2007-03-01 02:45:41.627 System Preferences[1880] [NSPrefPaneBundle instantiatePrefPaneObject] (/Users/steve/Library/PreferencePanes/Shell Environment.prefPane): principalClass is nil.

Re: [Pythonmac-SIG] pyObjC and Plugins
Hi Steve, At some point py2app went from being bundled as part of PyObjC to being a separate install. I think at that time there was a requirement to uninstall the old py2app before installing the new one. I don't guarantee that is the solution to the problem you're having, but it's a possibility (your problem sounds very much like what I was facing, and this fixed it for me). Instructions for uninstalling (and reinstalling) py2app are here: http://svn.pythonmac.org/py2app/py2app/trunk/doc/ index.html#uninstalling-py2app-0-2-x-or-earlier Also, while it may help to remove older versions of and altgraph, bdist_mpkg, macholib, modulegraph, I'm pretty sure you don't have to install them explicitly. They should come along as part of the py2app install, if I recall correctly. The link above is to the py2app docs, so you should be able to find all the info there. Good luck, and let us know how it goes! --Dethe On 28-Feb-07, at 10:11 PM, Steve Freitas wrote: > Hi all, > > I've spent all evening unsuccessfully trying to get the > EnvironmentPrefs > plugin working on my setup, and I hope you can help.

[Pythonmac-SIG] pyObjC and Plugins
Hi all, I've spent all evening unsuccessfully trying to get the EnvironmentPrefs plugin working on my setup, and I hope you can help. I keep getting this: 2007-02-28 21:56:58.918 System Preferences[522] *** -[NSBundle load]: Error loading code /Users/steve/Library/PreferencePanes/Shell Environment.prefPane/Contents/MacOS/Shell Environment for bundle /Users/steve/Library/PreferencePanes/Shell Environment.prefPane, error code 2 (link edit error code 0, error number 0 ()) 2007-02-28 21:56:58.918 System Preferences[522] [NSPrefPaneBundle instantiatePrefPaneObject] (/Users/steve/Library/PreferencePanes/Shell Environment.prefPane): principalClass is nil. I found this earlier thread... http://mail.python.org/pipermail/pythonmac-sig//2006-October/018298.html ...in which apparently upgrading to a later version of py2app fixed by Ronald Oussoren did the trick. However, doing the same hasn't fixed it for me, and I'm guessing in the flurry of reinstallations I left something out. I installed Python 2.5 from Python.org on a fresh install of 10.4.8. I installed, from source, pyObjC 1.4. I did easy_install [module]==dev for altgraph, bdist_mpkg, macholib, modulegraph and py2app. >>> print altgraph.__version__, bdist_mpkg.__version__, \ macholib.__version__, modulegraph.__version__, py2app.__version__ 0.6.8 0.4.2 1.2 0.7.1 0.3.6 Now, I did a lot of uninstallation and reinstallation of all of these pieces, and it's possible something from an old install is still hanging around, since my uninstallation technique consisted of rm -Rf. However, I'm not yet ready to try a fresh 10.4.8 installation again without someone telling me that's the only way. At various points in my console I also got the "ImportError: No module named linecache", but not on every attempt -- I'm not sure why. I've been careful to close and reopen System Preferences between each attempt, and I delete build/ and dist/ in the EnvironmentPrefs dir as well. If anyone could suggest something, I'd sure appreciate it. Thanks! Steve ___ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
