Hey @jaedwards24
There's currently a known issue with macOS Self Service - PI119354: Self Service macOS Crashes when using URL schemes to open content
The issue does not occur if Self Service is already running before we call the URL scheme. We could use that to our advantage with this script by opening Self Service 1 line before opening the specific policy.
Lines 347 through 348 currently look like this:
su - "${loggedInUser}" -c "/usr/bin/killall Self\ Service"
su - "${loggedInUser}" -c "/usr/bin/open \"jamfselfservice://content?entity=policy&id=$jamfProPolicyID&action=view\""
We could add one line after the killall Self\ Service
to open it, then wait a few seconds before running the URL:
su - "${loggedInUser}" -c "/usr/bin/open /Applications/Self\ Service.app" && sleep 3
Lines 347 through 349 would now look like this:
su - "${loggedInUser}" -c "/usr/bin/killall Self\ Service"
su - "${loggedInUser}" -c "/usr/bin/open /Applications/Self\ Service.app" && sleep 3
su - "${loggedInUser}" -c "/usr/bin/open \"jamfselfservice://content?entity=policy&id=$jamfProPolicyID&action=view\""
Could you give that a try and see if it solves the issue for the time being?
Thanks Ben! I finally had a chance to test and this seems to be a good workaround for us.
This script worked well for us until sometime recently. Now launching the Self Service policy with "jamfselfservice://..." results in Self Service launching and immediately crashing.
Jamf Support said this could be an issue with zsh and to try bash. Running the script with bash had the same result though.
