Leopard Issues with 0.2 - Resolved

[mrobe57]

SInce upgrading to leopard play 0.2 will no longer launch.....Anybody have any ideas

Thanks

It's going to take me a bit of work to get Play working on Leopard, unfortunately. I'll post any progress updates here.

[sbooth]

I have hopefully fixed all the problems with Play to get it working on Leopard, and I've uploaded r1042 with the changes. Everything should still work with Tiger, but unfortunately I no longer have a Tiger system for testing so I can't be sure.

I am getting the following error with the new build

Code: Select all

The SQL Statement for "select_stream_by_url" could not be prepared/

The SQLite error was: no such column: frame_count

Console log:

Code: Select all

10/28/07 5:50:20 PM Play[2210] Not connected to database 

Any advice?

Getting Same error message as jdc0730.

Yes, as this post explains you'll need to delete or rename the ~/Application Support/Play/Library.sql file to use the current unstable builds.

yeah r1042 just bumps once for me in the dock and then dies..
I´m on 10.4.10., don´t know if there is any info/logs i could send..?
I upgraded from 0.2 stable because it was using 16-17%cpu when idle on my MB, something I cant remember the the older builds did..
I could send some info on this also if it´s of any interest.

Hi all.

First off, thanks to the developer for this program. Just downloaded it in Leopard, doesn't open. One bounce on the dock only. Any help? G.

Did you download the unstable version?

[giggybrown]

Yes I did, but being an ignorant newb I interpreted unstable as bad. Is it fine?

Generally I try to post only builds that are in fairly good working order unless I need feedback or testing on a specific feature. I call them unstable because they do not yet contain all the features I have in mind for the next release. The current unstable build is essentially RC1 for Play 0.3, and I consider it as stable as the 0.2 release.

Are the launching problems you are having occurring with the unstable build?

[giggybrown]

No, loading seems fine with the unstable version, although I need help figuring out how to use Play (see help forum post). I guess unstable really just means incomplete then huh? Interesting.

I tried both the stable and unstable versions under Leopard... Both wouldn't start at all. The problem is that 'Play' binary doesn't have the executable bit set... Fix it by running 'chmod +x /Applications/Play.app/Contents/MacOS/Play' in the terminal.

I also had the problem with corrupted libcurl in the instalation, I'd get the following error:

dyld: Library not loaded: @executable_path/../Frameworks/libcurl.framework/libcurl
Referenced from: /Applications/Play.app/Contents/MacOS/Play
Reason: no suitable image found. Did find:
/Applications/Play.app/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/libcurl.framework/libcurl: file too short
/Applications/Play.app/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/libcurl.framework/libcurl: unknown file type, first eight bytes: 0x00 0x10 0x00 0x00 0xEB 0x57 0xE0 0x8F


A simple fix is (in the terminal):

cd /Applications/Play.app/Contents/Frameworks/libcurl.framework
rm libcurl
ln -s /usr/lib/libcurl.4.dylib libcurl
