"crash server failed to launch, self-terminating"? #8

Closed isaacchan15947 closed 7 months ago

I followed all steps and was patience in the last steps. After I waited for around 2 hours, I realized that I kept receiving the same error message "[0122/023753.742:ERROR:crashpad_client_win.cc(132)] crash server failed to launch, self-terminating" every 1 minutes.

Is it normal? How long should I wait for the first time? I tried rebooting the Mac and started Steam again after waiting for 2 hours, but it didn't help.

Yes. I rebooted my Mac after 2 hours of waiting. After rebooting, I opened 'Terminal' and started Steam again, but it still ran the same "crash server failed to launch, self-terminating" sentence to me (The screenshot was taken after I rebooted and started Steam again).

Also, I tried to run the IE browser in the Program Files (x86) folder. The IE browser worked properly. So I don't know why Steam isn't running.

By the way, I see the Steam icon on the Dock after I run it the second time. It has no available window for me though.

Did you install wine manually? If yes, please remove it completely and use only the version that is installed via Apple's game toolkit.

I don't remember if I installed Wine manually since I followed the steps and never installed programs through Terminal.

How can I check the version of Wine? And which version should it be?

I've re-checked that everything still works with latest steam and current Apple Game Porting Toolkit, and it's still ok.

If I enter in terminal:

/usr/local/bin/wine64 --version

I get:

wine-7.7

Anyway,

what I would recommend at this point is to follow the Uninstallation notes at the end and restart with a fresh installation from scratch.

wine-7.7

I got wine-7.7 too. After I uninstalled and reinstalled everything, it is working for me now :) Maybe I used Xcode 15.2 previously, but the latest Command Line Tools was 15.1. Right now, I am using Xcode 15.1 instead.

Thanks for answering my question and writing the steps here!
