Build 0.99.0-rc5 fails to launch on Intel Mac, or Win11

Closed this issue · 2 comments

The rc4 build worked. rc5, and the next test build 0.99.0-test808f9d0 do not.

AYAB software version: 0.99.0-rc5
Computer/OS: Intel Mac, Big Sur 11.7.10
Knitting machine: KH910
AYAB hardware: Interface

So far the only successful release build for Mac has been rc4. It is broken again at rc5, (and also the next test build 0.99.0-test808f9d0 which wasn't trying to fix this issue.) It bounces once in the dock and dies. I have stepped through the messages about malicious software.

Steps:
1.Download the dmg from the Releases page
2.Double-click to launch.
(There are multiple messages here and at the next steps about not being able to detect malicious software, which I won't show in detail. Right-click and find the Open Anyway options.)
3.Drag the AYAB icon to the Application folder.
4.In Applications, double-click AYAB-mac.app
Right-click and step past the malicious software warnings.

Expected: The Desktop app should launch.
Actual: Moves once in the dock, and dies.

  1. Open a Terminal window.
  2. type:
    /Applications/AYAB-mac.app/Contents/MacOS/AYAB-mac.app

Expected: The Desktop app should launch
Actual: It does not launch. Debug log info attached.

AYAB rc5 crash on launch.txt

Similar fail on Win11. it brings up a black command line box, spews a bunch of debug crap, and closes without launching the app. Log attached.
RC5 on Win11.txt

#659 addresses this, and 0.99.0-rc6 runs properly.
