Title: aMule for Mac crashes after startup
Post by: ortwin on April 04, 2005, 04:02:34 PM
Hello!

Can someone help? aMule crashes after startup. I see the program comming up, writing some logs, then connecting and after some seconds it crashes. I can´t do anything with the prog. e.g. stop the connecting.

i remember that "crashes shortly after starting" bug .. was that cvs-20050329 ?

anyway, if you have not yet anything of value downloaded you may remove hidden folder ".aMule" from your home directory. (in Terminal type "rm -R ~/.aMule")

or edit .aMule/amule.conf: change line "AutoConnect=1" to "AutoConnect=0". this will disable auto connection at startup afaik. You can open the hidden folder with Apple+G in the finder ("goto folder") enter "~/.aMule" here. Then drag "auto.conf" on TextEdit.

after doing so start amule an _wait_ until it has hashed all shared files, if any. then manually connect to a server. this worked for me when i encountered this problem.

or you may also try my most recent build from k1.dyndns.org (http://k1.dyndns.org/aMule-CVS-20050404.zip) if you trust me.

ortwin, here are some things you can do to help us diagnose this problem:

Post the crash report.  Locate the file Home -> Library -> Logs -> CrashReporter -> amule.crash.log and attach it to a post here.

Post aMule's log file.  In the Finder, do Go -> Go to Folder and type ~/.aMule.  In that folder, locate logfile and attach it to a post here.

Run aMule from the Terminal (Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal).  Drag and drop the aMule application icon onto ther Terminal window.  Press backspace once to delete the space on the command line.  Type "/Console/MacOS/amule" (don't type the quotes), and press return.  After aMule crashes, copy what was displayed in the Terminal window and paste it into a post here.

Let us know if you have the Developer Tools installed.  If so, we can provide you with instructions to give us even more helpful diagnostic information.

Turning autoconnect off does not help. aMule crashes after some secounds. So here is the log file in the .aMule folder:

Code: [Select]

Attached is the Crashreporter file. Running from the command line does not work. I don´t know why. I do have the developer tools installed. So if you could help me further on, please try.
