Doesn't seem to run on OSX?

What steps will reproduce the problem?

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.

I don't know if this is related but unfortunately I haven't learned how to
compile on OSX, etc... yet.

I just installed Pyrex by running "sudo easy_install Pyrex", checked out r29 of
python-spidermonkey and ran "python setup.py build" and "sudo python setup.py
install". I can now successfully import the Runtime and run some basic 
examples. Even
"python test.py" shows that 15 Tests passed OK.

I'm running OS X 10.5.6 on an Intel Mac.

So I cannot reproduce the problem described above. Hope this helps ...

I just tried again (removed it from site-package and had the same problem.
From your description vs. mine I can think of one major difference, I don't run
easy_install via sudo.

So my Pyrex egg is in;
/Users/wjhuie/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/Pyrex-0.9.8.5-py2.5.egg

I have a .pydistutils.cfg file to specify this directory;

cat .pydistutils.cfg 
[install]
install_lib = ~/Library/Python/$py_version_short/site-packages
install_scripts = ~/bin

Even with the new "easy_install Pyrex" I get the same error from a python shell;

>>>import spidermonkey
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "build/bdist.macosx-10.5-i386/egg/spidermonkey.py", line 7, in <module>

It looks like it can't find libjs.dylib which Spotlight can't seem to find on my
system. What would provide that library?

I seem to be having problems too. I had spidermonkey installed via mac ports, 
and
installed pyrex via easy_install. I then built and installed the bridge, but am
getting a .Bus error when running the tests.

This is with Python 2.6, BTW.

This config works for me:

- OS X 10.5.8
- spidermoney installed using macports
- system python (2.5.1)
- Pyrex installed using pip (pip first installed using easy_install)

I expected it not to work after seeing the error message "ld warning: in
js/src/Darwin_DBG.OBJ/libjs.dylib, file is not of required architecture", but 
work it
did.

However I see the same symptom as Bruce - Bus Error - using pythons 2.5 and 2.6 
from
macports, with pyrex installed from macports or using pip.
