Installing Gem version crashes Notification Center #140

Closed herrbischoff closed 8 years ago

herrbischoff commented 9 years ago

Environment

$ sw_vers
ProductName:    Mac OS X
ProductVersion: 10.10.5
BuildVersion:   14F27
$ ruby -v
ruby 2.2.1p85 (2015-02-26 revision 49769) [x86_64-darwin14]
$ irssi -v
irssi 0.8.17 (20141011 1044)

Problem

I tried to run terminal-notifier along with irssi and this script, which resulted in an instant lockup of Notification Center. CPU usage immediately spikes to 100% and Notification Center becomes unresponsive.

killall NotificationCenter does nothing to help, restarting or cache clearing or deleting of preferences does not work as well. I found out that unchecking the following checkbox in the Notifications preference pane, followed by a killall NotificationCenter stops the CPU usage and NC becomes responsive again. When checking the box, the previous behavior immediately reappears.

When uninstalling the Gem and installing via Homebrew everything works fine.

That's really weird. Have you noticed other issues not related to your usage with irssi?

julienXX commented 9 years ago

Is it possible that you installed the gem version sudo like sudo gem install terminal-notifier?

herrbischoff commented 9 years ago

No, just installed without sudo, as it should be.

Since there hasn't been any update regarding this for a long time, I'm closing this.
