Crash on macOS during start #56

arudnev · 2017-04-20T19:41:19Z

After upgrading to 0.22.0-sdk nw is crashing on start on macOS Sierra 10.12.4, showing the following dialog:

Here is what I have in the console:

npm install -g [email protected]

/usr/local/bin/nw -> /usr/local/lib/node_modules/nw/bin/nw

> [email protected] postinstall /usr/local/lib/node_modules/nw

nw --version

Same error here with [email protected]:

I have a package.json like this:

{
  "name":"hello",
  "version":"1.0.0",
  "devDependencies":{
    "nw":"^0.22.0",
    "nw-builder":"^3.2.0"
  },
  "scripts":{
    "dev":"nw src/",
    "prod":"nwbuild --platforms win32,win64,osx64,linux32,linux64 --buildDir dist/ src/"
  }
}

I run: npm install which installs the (local) node modules properly.

Since I defined a script called dev, I then run: npm run dev (from the root of my project) which returns this:

+1

perhaps the dir structure changed in .22 (working with a vanilla install)

arudnev · 2017-04-24T17:07:09Z

I think it probably has something to do with switch to symbolic links instead of actual content in 0.22.
I've added a bit more details about dir structure change in evshiron/nwjs-builder-phoenix#30

matthew-dean · 2017-04-30T20:45:41Z

I'm also getting this issue after upgrading to 0.22.0. NW.js apps will not run.

nurishi · 2017-05-12T05:25:59Z

This is due to dependent download library issue not respecting symlinks which is already solved on their end. I have created a PR(#58) to simply update it. Hope it works!

troylelandshields · 2017-05-27T05:20:37Z

also experiencing this. Anyone have a workaround?

funwithtriangles · 2017-05-28T00:35:44Z

+1

shama · 2017-05-28T01:34:03Z

@funwithtriangles Click the reaction button instead of writing +1 so you don't send me a noisy pointless notification, thanks!

rohan-deshpande · 2017-06-11T08:45:36Z

Wanted to update my nwjs CLI to pull the latest version of nw but doing so lead to this error when attempting to run the app

Have to downgrade back to 0.20.1 to make it work. Can someone please approve @nurishi's PR to get this sorted?

Still encountering this in "nw": "0.23.5-sdk":

It's been almost two weeks, bumping @Mithgol

Mithgol · 2017-07-12T17:21:11Z

Thanks for reminding me. A fix is published in v0.23.6-1 (and in v0.23.6-sdk-1) and now I need a macOS user to confirm or deny the results.

alekseybobkov · 2017-07-13T00:29:56Z

I tried both v0.23.6-1 and in v0.23.6-sdk-1 on macOS and can confirm that they work. Thanks for the fix!

Mithgol · 2017-07-13T17:47:08Z

Okay.

Now, does anyone really need a v0.24.0-beta1sdk-1?

Mithgol · 2017-08-11T21:42:18Z

Nodody does.

Okay, this is closed, there's nothing else to do.

robaweb · 2017-09-05T14:13:27Z

It's still happens on mac os with versions 0.23.7, 0.24.*, only 0.25.0 from live-build works well

Mithgol · 2017-09-12T19:46:27Z

Since we are already using the download package version ^5.0.3, what else could go wrong? Any ideas?

see nwjs/npm-installer#56

lclc · 2018-05-16T12:41:26Z

I run in to the same error message, but only on OSX, using 0.30.4.

We want to use NWJS with Python (and PyInstaller). Here is our small PoC where we are trying the setup:
https://github.com/Feathercoin-Foundation/pywebpoc

You can run it by creating a pipenv and build it with the script:

pipenv install
pipenv shell
./build.sh
./dist/pywebpoc

This is the error:
