Problem Installing on Mac

[KidGuko]

I have Mac OS X 10.6.1

I downloaded Mudlet. I installed the dependencies. I restarted the computer. Lastly, I moved the Mudlet file to my application folder.

When I click to run it... It gives me a runtime error and says it stopped running. It never gives me why it suddenly stopped running.

Any help?

I downloaded the latest Mudlet (full) client.


Thanks,

Mudlet 1.0.4?

[KidGuko]

Yes. Mudlet 1.0.4

Is there a way to uninstall the dependencies? If so, I could try uninstalling it and reinstalling...

No idea tbh, don't use a mac. Supposedly dragging the icon into trash does it.

Are you sure you cant get more info out of it? What if run mudlet from the terminal?

[KidGuko]

Lol. I am a new Mac user...

I moved the Mudlet icon to trash... but there were dependencies that were installed and not sure exactly where they installed to in order to remove them.

I think I will try installing the older version, then, upgrading to the newer one with the upgrade download.

Hrm. I downloaded the older (version 1.0) and I get the same Mudlet quit unexpectedly error.

I saw on the site it says it works with Mac OSX 10.5+ but perhaps it does not with 10.6.1 ?

That bites

If your Mac guy knows a reason why this could be happening and what I could do to fix it... let me know

The 1.0.4 package has actually been built on 10.6. Have a go at Mudlet-Beta-14. You can get it on mudlet.sf.net.
If it all fails you can compile Mudlet yourself. It's not terribly difficult. You can get help here or on irc.

To compile Mudlet, download the OSX Qt-4.6-SDK at qt.nokia.com and the source code of libpcre-7.8 and hop on irc and ask for help (answer may take a while).

I think I heard that installing beta 14 and then 1.0.4 over it might work.

We have someone else working on a new installer.

[KidGuko]

Cool. I will try out the beta download idea first... and if all else fails try to compile the source.

[KidGuko]

I get the same issue using the beta 14 and installing 1.0.4 over beta 14.

This time I did use the terminal to see what would happen.

Here is what I got:

Code: Select all

Not sure if that means anything to you or not... but to me it seems like the QtGui is not starting. (Is that the gui interface?)
