Keychain scripting & Tiger/10.4: "Application not running" error

Keychain scripting & Tiger/10.4: "Application not running" error

Hello,

Like a couple of other posters to this list (John Baltutis, "Application not running error", 8-May-05; Gnarlodious, "Tiger: Keychain Scripting works? Can't get password...", 2-May-05), upgrading to Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) has broken my Keychain Access scripts. Using Keychain Access, I can access all the properties of a key, _except_ the password! In the following script, the first line works fine, but the second line returns the error "Keychain Scripting got an error: Application isn't running."


tell application "Keychain Scripting" to set theKey to generic key 1 of keychain "login.keychain" of application "Keychain Scripting"


tell application "Keychain Scripting" to set thePassword to password of theKey

  -->Keychain Scripting got an error: Application isn't running.

This worked with no problem in Mac OS X 10.3.x. There seems to be a bug in 10.4 whereby any attempt to access the 'password' property of a key results in the above error.

My questions are:

  -has anyone figured out a way around this?

  -has anyone filed a bug report with Apple?

There seems to be very little/no information about this that I can find.

Many thanks for your help,
Jolin
