Hi, This is a bug report. I dont succeed to launch Nuxeo Drive on MacBook (2008). Nuxeo Drive : 1.2.1218 Mac OS X : 10.7.5 (also tried on 10.6.8)

Double-click on app don't do anything

Hi,

Strange, Drive crashing at startup on OS X 10.6.8 with segfault is a known issue: https://jira.nuxeo.com/browse/NXP-13000, but not on 10.7.5. Could you have a look at the system crash report to see if the thread dump is similar to the one attached to NXP-13000?

I Googled "OS X python segmentation fault 11", only found stuff about OS X 10.9 crashing with Python 2.7.5, fixed in 2.7.6, so I guess not related...

You shouldn't need to install any module as all dependencies (including Qt, PyQt, ...) are embedded in the dmg binary package.

Sorry, there is not much more I can tell you for now.

Hi,

I recently found out that a Drive package built on OS X 10.8, which is currently the case in our continuous integration chain, might not always work on 10.7.5, causing a segmentation fault at startup. I've tested a build done under OS X 10.7.5 and it works fine. It is available here: http://community.nuxeo.com/static/drive/nuxeo-drive-5.8-2014.0219-osx-10.7.5.dmg

This build is compliant with a Nuxeo 5.8 server with the latest hotfix installed. That might help you in a first place, but for now we are still releasing Drive packages built under OS X 10.8. At some point we might find a solution to distribute a package compliant with earlier versions of OS X such as 10.7.5.
