#25 opendta-v0.20-macos does not start/open

[Daniel H.]

Hi there, man thanks for providing this fantastic tool!
Sadly, since the latest two builds on MacOS it does not run for me any more.
After starting it as usual it immediately closes again, no error message. Already completely deleted all files and reinstalled it.
Any advice on how to further debug? Thanks in advance :)

macOS Monterey 12.1
opendta-v0.20-macos.dmg
Released on 2022-01-14

Same here today. Updated to version 0.20 (from 0.18) but it does not start at all.
You click to start but no reaction at all.
Monterey 12.1
Had to go back to 0.18.

Can please try to start the app from command line:

• open terminal
• type: /path-where-dtaguiapp-is-located/dtagui.app/Contents/MacOS/dtagui
• typically: /Applications/dtagui.app/Contents/MacOS/dtagui

Please copy the text output here.

Thanks for your response and help!
Here comes the output:

Seems that the QtDBus Framework is missing:

A v0.20a macOS download is now available. Hopefully it is working now.

Confirmed to work again. Many thanks!! :-)
