0.56 Freezes when open on Mavericks 10.9.2

[nexusmb]

The program worked fine till yesterday. Today I open it and it freeze as soon as I try to click on the GUI. It does not respond to any input.

I've cleared the cache and removed the ~/Library/Preferences/repetier.Repetier-Host-Mac.plist with no luck.

Below is the output on the console.

Anyone else having this issue?

I'm a bit confused by the first line:

pypy:/Applications/Repetier-Host Mac.app/Contents/Resources/pypy.app

pypy.app is included in the host package but is never called at startup. It is only used if you slice with skeinforge. So it should never run and in fact you can not start it as an application. So I think you are starting the wrong app. You can even delete pypy.app if you do not need skeinforge (show package content->Resources).

[nexusmb]

I've never used skeinforge. Removing the pypy.app the behaviour of Repetier does not change.
Here the console log:

13/04/2014 16:54:16.833 Repetier-Host Mac[1549]: pypy:(null)
13/04/2014 16:54:17.682 Repetier-Host Mac[1549]: *** -[__NSArrayM objectAtIndex:]: index 4294967295 beyond bounds for empty array
13/04/2014 16:54:19.767 Repetier-Host Mac[1549]: CGSGetWindowTransformAtPlacement
13/04/2014 16:54:19.767 Repetier-Host Mac[1549]: CGSTranslatePointForWindow

There should be something wrong in the .plist (even the one regenerated by Repetier if i remove it).

I created a new user on my mac. Repetier is already installed (i've installed it for all users on the mbp) and it works fine.

I've copied the new .plist from the new user preferences directory to the old one. It works fine (obviously I've lost all my settings).

Below you find the export of the .plist that makes Repetier fail.

Anyone else having this issue?

I have been having a similar problem with repetier host on mac.

I only see the deadlock when I hit connect. Have been seeing problems like this ( not sure on the error/deadlock ) for quite some time now.

Usually I can clear it up by nuking the application cache:
rm -rf '~/Library/Saved Application State/repetier.Repetier-Host-Mac.savedState'

However this no longer seems to be working. I've also seen a similar issue with Repetier on linux, so this may not be unique to the mac port/runtime.

[bilsch]

Not sure if will be helpful. I used activity monitor to capture a sample of the app activities. its available in my dropbox public folder if anyone is curious.

This is in the locked state

[lodewykp]

Same problem here. Suddenly started this morning. I can open it as a different user but freezes up on my default user.

[lodewykp]

Deleting the configuration file seems to fix this, but closing all instances and restarting the mac after deletion seems important. I tried closing down, deleting and then opening the app a couple of times and my old configuration just ended back in the app.

So it seems important to follow this sequence:

1. Stop all instances of the app
2. Delete the config files by running this command “rm ~/Library/Preferences/repetier*.plist”
3. Restart your mac

[macropin]

@bilsch I'm seeing a similar issue on Yosemite. When I click 'connect' the deadlock occurs. Nuking .plist or application cache does not help.

The deadlock is printed immediately after clicking 'connect'.

I created a new user, logged in as that. Set the baud rate, and now it works fine.

i had the same issue and this forum thread solved helped me: http://forums.reprap.org/read.php?267,357112

in essence this solves the problem. (run in Terminal)
