[OSX PPC]Lazarus won't lounch again
« on: July 27, 2010, 07:03:27 pm »
Works fine on Intel but... here's the story..

I wanned to update lazarus on my PPC powerbook. so I downloaded the latest Laz snaptshot.
Installation wizard said that I had and older version of FPC and I should update it to 2.4 or higher.
I went to daily snapshots again and downloaded latest FPC 2.4 and FPC sources.
Installed them... everything went ok.
After that I installed lazarus 9.29... everything went ok.
Lounched it...  laz said that SQLDBlaz was missing and I decided to install it from packages and rebuild the IDE. That's exactly what I did.. but after 8mins of compiling it came up with an error "error compilinig resources"

Uninstalled it with uninstall.sh. I've even deleted the ~/.lazarus folder and plist file.
Reinstalled...  installation went ok(again)
But now every time I try to lounch it it crashes and gives me some access violation error.

What should I do?

Powerbook G4 1.6 mhz 1.5 GB ram.

Thanks

Please install the official FPC 2.4.0 release from http://www.freepascal.org/download.var

There have been many problems in the past already with FPC snapshots for Mac OS X on the Lazarus download pages. They were replaced with the official packages as far as I know (http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=15874), but if things work after you've installed the package from www.freepascal.org then it seems that something went wrong in that process.

* install Fpfc 2.4.0 from the official (http://freepascal.org/download.var) site
* install Fpc-Src and Lazarus-0.9.29 from daily snapshot.

everything should work fine.

I'm getting annoying but : )

Should I install the FPC over the previous installation or I should first uninstall the snapshot version of FPC?

You can install it over the previous version.

Please launch Lazarus from Terminal:
Code: [Select]
cd /Applications/Lazarus/Contents/MacOS
./lazarus
...and paste the output here
