Re: Mysterious .app/Finder corruption?
site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: Installer-dev@lists.apple.com Thanks for writing guys. Nothing was showing up in the Console, but I did discover something new. If I change my app so it only builds for i386 and x86_64 (ie. no ppc), then the problem goes away. I can't imagine what the heck could be going on behind the scenes such that the app has issues loading a bundle when the app happens to contain a ppc fork (despite that the host system is an intel Mac). Argh, strange!! So in short: the presence of ppc causes the app to fail to load our bundle. On Apr 1, 2011, at 6:59 PM, Eli Bach wrote:

Will keep trying to crack this! Ugh, it just sucks to burn so much time on crap like this..
Andy,
Is anything showing up in Console when you launch it with the Finder?

Also, since you can get it to work by launching the App before packaging it, have you tried trapping for what changes when you launch it on your build machine? Sounds like this problem exists even before it's being packaged.
Sorry, I'm having trouble following you here. The app seems to be fine by every measure before getting packaged since there isn't a case where it had problems before getting packaged. It's only after the package installer is run where it has problems following a double-click launch.
My bad, I mis-interpreted your original email to mean that if you launch the app on the build machine and then package it, then the problem does not appear. I see now that you were just proving that the app worked.
If it's indeed a problem that is specific to that folder, what if you put something else in there, like say, Firefox? Will Firefox not load? If you deploy the app directly to the Applications folder without the subdirectory, does it error?
Might be time to dust off your one of your developer tech support incidents.
