Exited with code: 255 on osx 10.8.3

[bonsak]

Great idea André! This is awsome. But when trying to start the app on osx 10.8.3 i get this error in the console: 10/9/13 10:05:36.903 AM com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[166]: ([0x0-0x2e26e24].com.seramediavfx.C4DPluginWizard[41461]) Exited with code: 255

Thanks a lot for trying it out and bringing this issue to my attention....

Well, that is curious. I am on 10.8.5 but that shouldn't be the issue. Could it be a gatekeeper issue? Did you double click the app or did you use right click, then "open" ?

The only other mac I have is a 10.6 system and last time I tried it opened without issues.

Gatekeeper is set to "Anywhere". No its the same result with both dobble-click and right-click "open" Just out of curiosity i tried starting the app from the commandline:

/Applications/Maxon/CINEMA_4D_Plugin_Wizard_(OSX)/CINEMA 4D Plugin Wizard.app/Contents/MacOS/CINEMA 4D Plugin Wizard

But then i got this back:

Were using Deadline from Thinkbox wich uses PyQt so it it could be some environment thing on my end.

Can you try re-downloading from the blog post please? Here's the link again: http://bit.ly/15mky9E

C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\Administrator\Eigene Dateien\source\pyinstaller-2.0 is actually the path on my Windows system where I put the PyInstaller script that compiled the exectuable.

I am baffled as to what that path is doing in the OS X executable. I had a hunch that maybe my synchronization software somehow copied artifacts from the build dir on my Windows machine to the OS X machine where parts of it where compiled into the OS X executable.

So, I cleaned my environment, re-downloaded a fresh copy of PyInstaller and recompiled the OS X version. It's a long shot but maybe it works for you...

Hm. It still gives the same error in the console and it still points back to something on your machine it seems:

Aha! There seems to be an issue with PyInstaller encoding incorrect dylib paths on OS X...

I will try the solution suggested here (http://www.pyinstaller.org/ticket/595) and recompile a new version. Let's hope this does the trick.

I am not even using that libQtCLucene library in my code but the ticket is correct. That is the only library from Qt that is in /usr/lib for some reason.

[andreberg]

Alright, new version is up. I did the fix to the .spec file as suggested by that ticket and recompiled. I replaced the dropbox upload so you can download from the blog post again as before.

Fingers crossed.

[bonsak]

It works! Thanks alot!
