I’ve been using CC on this Mac for several days without issue. When attempting to launch today, I’m having issues.
macOS 10.13.6
Macbook Pro (15-inch, 2017)
I tried both CC builds 313 and 316.
When I launch the app, I get the splash screen, the app icon in the dock indicates the app is active, but I never get a window. Activity Monitor shows 0 CPU use with a spike to 2% ever 15-30 seconds. I get the following in the console:
It’s working on 10.14 ok for me on a '15 MBP retina 15". 10.14 came out yesterday, did it install automatically on this machine? I’ve had cases in the past where I have needed to reinstall the same version of CC again after an upgrade.
I work in Mac Book Pro and my desktop iMac 27" System High Sierra 10.13.6 and I don’t have any problem . I use Windows too I all my computers and send to any platform whit-out problems , work whit CC and CM 2 years ago .
Ok. I have a minor update.
Launching from the dock or .app fails. I found that if I run: sudo /Applications/Carbide\ Create.app/Contents/MacOS/Carbide\ Create
the app launches correctly. However /Applications/Carbide\ Create.app/Contents/MacOS/Carbide\ Create
and sudo open /Applications/Carbide\ Create.app
will not.
I ran opensnoop to monitor file access to see what may have bad permissions. Running it both ways is nearly identical except when using sudo there are several access of /etc/master.passwd. Not sure if that is a byproduct of the sudo.
So it’s obviously a permissions issue, but I have no idea how to fix it.
I’m deleted and reinstalled a both the beta and the current stable version. Same behavior.
Since there’s not an uninstall script for macOS, is there anything other than the .app itself and the content under ~/Library/Saved Application State/com.yourcompany.Carbide Create.savedState that needs to be removed for a clean uninstall?
I have a separate user on most of my systems called CNC. Something in the environment is the issue, you could try to look at what has been loaded or updated since the issue began and remove it all, then put it back one at a time until you find what is causing it. I find a separate user easier to maintain.
It’s been ages since I did anything in depth on OSX though, so you might need to double check those -rf options in the man page (eg man chown). It’s possible they need to be -RF or something instead. -r should be “Recursive” (eg do all the files inside the folder too) and -f should be “Force”.
FYI, I still haven’t figured this out. I went as far as cloning my HD and upgrading the clone to macOS 10.14 with no luck. At least with a cloned drive I can be as destructive as I need to be. I’ll post an update if I make any progress.
