Tex Update Failed ... what should I look for? #133

Closed VintageRoses closed 1 year ago

VintageRoses commented 1 year ago

I've had a recurring problem when attempting to run the Tex Live Update. The last few entries in the log are as follows:

2022-12-16 2:04:48 am +0000 Notice tlu_ipctask[25765] child process pid = 25766 exited 2022-12-16 2:04:49 am +0000 Notice tlu_ipctask[25765] exit status of pid = 25766 was 1 2022-12-16 2:04:49 am +0000 Notice -[TLMAuthorizedOperation _runUntilChildExit][16061] exit status of pid = 25765 was 1 2022-12-16 2:04:49 am +0000 Notice -[TLMAuthorizedOperation _runUntilChildExit][16061] kqueue noted that tlu_ipctask (pid = 25765) exited with status 1

Due to prior hacks, I've locked down my Mac running macOS Catalina, version 10.15.7 pretty tightly, perhaps too tight to run Tex Live Update.

Any thoughts on where I should look to allow Tex Live Update to run would be helpful, and/or additional info that may be needed to properly diagnose. Thanks!

I need more (preferably all) log output to diagnose this, as the snippet here could be anything.

If you want to diagnose it yourself, try running tlmgr from the command line and see if it works.

Hi,

Thank you for your response.

FYI, I have run tlmgr from the command line, and it works fine, but the Tex Live Utility itself does not, which is why I posted.

As requested, here is the entire log file entryfrom the Tex Live Utility app for today, 16/12/2022:

Try switching to a different repository; you can do this using the Configure->Manage Repositories menu. Everything looks good until tlmgr starts trying to download:

Hi,

Thank you for getting back.

Although I've tried switching Repositories in my attempt at fining a solution, I will try a few more times to see if that can make a difference.

If that fails, I'll look into deleting the entire Tex Live Utility app and code, and reinstalling the entire application to see if that helps.

Thank you again for responding.

Have a wonderful holiday!

Feel free to reopen if this problem crops up again. Assuming it's fixed.
