Problem description

FreeCAD on macOS crashes as described here:

MacOS at startup crash (critical)

The error message is:

Qt WebEngine resources not found at /Applications/FreeCAD.app/Contents/Resources/Resources. Trying parent directory...

When I look into the application I see

/Applications/FreeCAD.app/Contents/Resources/resources

with a lowercase "r".

If I rename the folder to "Resources" it works.

This affects only a small number of macOS users, since the default on macOS is to ignore case.

Greetings Axel

luzpaz commented 1 year ago

Is this the Conda macOS build? (where did you install from?)

AKielhorn commented 1 year ago

Yes, it is the conda build.

Installed from weekly-builds

luzpaz commented 1 year ago

Is this the relevant code? https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle/blob/master/conda/osx/create_bundle.sh#L54-L55

for arm64:
https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle/blob/master/conda/osx-arm64/create_bundle.sh#L57-L58

AKielhorn commented 1 year ago

Yes that seems to fix it.

When I

ln -s resources Resources

I get

Resources % ls -ld [rR]*
lrwxr-xr-x  1 ***  admin    9 30 Mai 18:14 Resources@ -> resources
drwxr-xr-x@ 8 ***  admin  256 28 Mai 14:30 resources/

and FreeCAD starts just fine.

luzpaz commented 1 year ago

Moved to FreeCAD-Bundle where conda related issues are relevant.

adrianinsaval commented 1 year ago

I don't quite understand why you where missing that link, the bundling process is supposed to add it

AKielhorn commented 1 year ago

When I look into the distributed application on the disc image I see:

There is no link to Resources.

Maybe the distribution is build on a case insensitive file system, or the disc image isn't case sensitive. When I start FreeCAD from a case insensitive file system, it works.

On a case insensitive file system, the link fails:

Resources % ln -s resources Resources 
ln: Resources/resources: File exists

There is no simple solution that works in both cases.

luzpaz commented 1 year ago

What's the solution then ?

adrianinsaval commented 1 year ago

I would guess we have to build the package in a case sensitive file system, but I don't know if that is available on github actions. Or find out why it searching for the wrong directory to begin with. I've never used mac though so I don't know even where to begin looking into this

luzpaz commented 1 year ago

@ipatch have you encountered this problem with homebrew ?

ipatch commented 1 year ago

@luzpaz i do remember running across an issue where something was case sensitive and it was not working due to things being case sensitive. that said, i've slept several times since that was reported, but i do remember commenting on a github issue and possibly a forum thread about it.

unfortunately i am going to be AFK for the 10 days so i won't be able to test much if at all, but when i get back i don't mind taking a look. there is still a lot of things i'd to resolve with the homebrew-freecad tap as well.

AKielhorn commented 1 year ago

Even if you build on a case sensitive file system, there will be a conflict when users install the application on a case insensitive file system, which is the default for macOS.

For me everything works fine when I have only the Resources folder. Renaming instead of linking may be a solution.

adrianinsaval commented 1 year ago

Can you check if this is still a problem in the latest weekly?

AKielhorn commented 1 year ago

I checked the latest weekly:

  * FreeCAD_assembly3 0.11.3
  * fasteners 0.4.55
  * lattice2 1.0.0
  * sheetmetal 0.2.61

and it works fine.

Thaks for the fix.
