[rkward-devel] crashing bug and RKWard problems on Mac

[meik michalke]

hi,

a colleague of mine ran into some problems with the mac bundle. i can confirm 
that the right-click over "CD to script directory" crash also happens on my 
linux desktops!

I've tried running RKWard on my Mac and unfortunately encountered a 
number of bugs making the use of RKWard virtually impossible.

- On start up I get two successive error messages:

1. "No mime types installed. Check that shared-mime-info is installed, 
and that XDG_DATA_DIRS is not set, or includes /usr/share."

2. "Could not find mime type “application/octet-stream”"

- Possibly related to this, I was unable to open R-Scripts (I 
encountered no problems with saved workspaces). I got the following 
error message when trying it via the "Files" column:

"The url you are trying to open 
('file:///Users/frede
ikaust/Desktop/test.R') is not a local file or the 
filetype is not supported by RKWard. Do you want to open the url in the 
default application?"

When using the Open-function (Cmd O) RKWard crashes without error message.

On debug level 5 I get the following output when running RKWard from the 
terminal and open a file (Cmd O):

rkward(584)/KSharedDataCache ensureFileAllocated: This system misses 
support for posix_fallocate() -- ensure this partition has room for at 
least 10547296 bytes.
rkward(584)/KSharedDataCache: Unable to find an appropriate lock to 
guard the shared cache.  This *should* be essentially impossible. :(
rkward(584)/KSharedDataCache: Unable to perform initial setup, this 
system probably does not really support process-shared pthreads or 
semaphores, even though it claims otherwise.
rkward(584)/KSharedDataCache: Unable to unmap shared memory segment 
0x111902000
Unable to start Dr. Konqi

Here's my printenv output:

Finally, I encountered two minor bugs:

- Saving and restoring the workplace layout independently from saving a 
workspace doe
 not work. I always startup with the standard 
rkward_welcome setup.

- Right clicking the deactivated "CD to script directory" button 
sometimes crashes RKWard.


I hope this helps.

Cheers,
Frederik Aust
