hypergoof	When I try to open PlayOnMac I get a message saying, "PlayOnMac has encountered a fatal error, and will now terminate," with the choices to either open console or terminate. The console log says: 3/19/13 11:58:26 AM defaults[6275] The domain/default pair of (com.apple.dock, loc) does not exist 3/19/13 11:58:26 AM [0x0-0x3f73f7].org.playonmac.playonmac[6265] 2013-03-19 11:58:26.212 defaults[6275:903] 3/19/13 11:58:26 AM [0x0-0x3f73f7].org.playonmac.playonmac[6265] The domain/default pair of (com.apple.dock, loc) does not exist 3/19/13 11:58:26 AM [0x0-0x3f73f7].org.playonmac.playonmac[6265] Traceback (most recent call last): 3/19/13 11:58:26 AM [0x0-0x3f73f7].org.playonmac.playonmac[6265] File "/Applications/PlayOnMac.app/Contents/Resources/__boot__.py", line 137, in <module> 3/19/13 11:58:26 AM [0x0-0x3f73f7].org.playonmac.playonmac[6265] _run('mainwindow.py') 3/19/13 11:58:26 AM [0x0-0x3f73f7].org.playonmac.playonmac[6265] File "/Applications/PlayOnMac.app/Contents/Resources/__boot__.py", line 134, in _run 3/19/13 11:58:26 AM [0x0-0x3f73f7].org.playonmac.playonmac[6265] execfile(path, globals(), globals()) 3/19/13 11:58:26 AM [0x0-0x3f73f7].org.playonmac.playonmac[6265] File "/Applications/PlayOnMac.app/Contents/Resources/playonlinux/python/mainwindow.py", line 34, in <module> 3/19/13 11:58:26 AM [0x0-0x3f73f7].org.playonmac.playonmac[6265] import lib.lng as lng 3/19/13 11:58:26 AM [0x0-0x3f73f7].org.playonmac.playonmac[6265] File "/Applications/PlayOnMac.app/Contents/Resources/playonlinux/python/lib/lng.py", line 6, in <module> 3/19/13 11:58:26 AM [0x0-0x3f73f7].org.playonmac.playonmac[6265] import gettext, Variables as Variables, os 3/19/13 11:58:26 AM [0x0-0x3f73f7].org.playonmac.playonmac[6265] File "/Applications/PlayOnMac.app/Contents/Resources/playonlinux/python/lib/Variables.py", line 23, in <module>

Ronin DUSETTE	Try reinstalling POL? It looks like something in POL is corrupt. When did this start happening? Please: Post debug logs & full computer specs in first post No private messages for general help, use the forums Read the wiki, Report broken scripts

hypergoof	This happened the first time I tried to use it.

Ronin DUSETTE	Fully uninstall it or delete it, and try to install it again. Perhaps the download of the .dmg didnt finish completely? Im not sure what pre-requisites you need for PlayOnMac, either. What version of OSX are you running? Please: Post debug logs & full computer specs in first post No private messages for general help, use the forums Read the wiki, Report broken scripts

hypergoof	10.6.8
Ronin DUSETTE	Tuesday 19 March 2013 at 20:06
Ronin DUSETTE	Ok, so yeah. Delete POL, REdownload, and REinstall. I dont think that it fully downloaded. It is about 160 MB, so Im thinking that it didnt fully install, because it didnt download all of the data.

hypergoof	Alright, I'll do that now, thanks for the help.
Ronin DUSETTE	Tuesday 19 March 2013 at 20:12
Ronin DUSETTE	No problem. Let us know if it works or not. Hopefully that will fix it for you. Please: Post debug logs & full computer specs in first post No private messages for general help, use the forums Read the wiki, Report broken scripts

hypergoof	My internet started running slowly so I only just finished redownloading, its still having the same problem. Edited by hypergoof

Ronin DUSETTE	Hmm. Im not sure what could be missing then. I dont use a Mac, but is your system up-to-date? Do you have the pre-requisites to run POL? I know that it needs a few things. Maybe you dont have Python installed or something? Hopefully another Mac user can chime in. I have been trying to get ahold of one (or even just get a version running in VB for testing), but alas, I have not found one yet. lol Please: Post debug logs & full computer specs in first post No private messages for general help, use the forums Read the wiki, Report broken scripts

hypergoof	Ah, well thanks for your help, its probably my computer as its pretty old and has been (literally) falling apart recently.
Ronin DUSETTE	Tuesday 19 March 2013 at 22:39
Ronin DUSETTE	I mean, it may just be missing a couple of libraries. Im just not sure which ones. Please: Post debug logs & full computer specs in first post No private messages for general help, use the forums Read the wiki, Report broken scripts
