Re: AUs "disappear" in 10.3.8 - Bug?

Hiya Doug,

thanks!

However... I'm not sure though if I'd send out terminal stuff to users... maybe as the final weapon if nothing else helps, but not earlier. (On the other hand, people have learned to submit crash logs 8-)

I'm not exactly sure about the nature of the problem...

The good news is, that customer has installed another host software, copied the components back and and the problem was gone.

As he said he had trashed the components and re-installed them, I'm not so sure if it's solely a cache problem. I also got a reply off list about permissions being altered. Dunno.

;) Urs

Urs,

It can't hurt to file a bug report. But here's what I'd write in such a report if it were assigned to me:

I'm wondering if the Component Manager caches could be stale.

I'd suggest trying each of these in order (with the caveat that a naive user can cause a lot of grief for himself with a typing mistake):

$ sudo touch ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components
reboot

If that doesn't solve it:

$ sudo rm -rf /Library/Caches/*Components.LocalCache*
reboot

Hiya,

a customer of mine has encountered a weird problem that almost got me a heart attack. He upgraded to 10.3.8 and some - but not all - AUs had become invisible to the hosts, including mine.

Repairing Permissions, reinstalling the AUs etc. did not solve the trick.

Turned out, all visible ones were in Local, all "disappeared" ones were in User location. When he copied them to the Local section, they reappeared.

Any ideas? - Should I file a bug report?

Thanks,

;) Urs
