FS#11654 - RockboxUtility 1.2.8 does not run in OS X Snow Leopard

Actually this is about RBUtil 1.2.8 - reported version doesn’t have the current version listed yet.

Won’t run on my machine - macbook (2007) running snow leopard 10.6.4.

Here are the first few lines of the crash report -

The issue is caused by the proxy detection code. Fixed in svn. As a workaround you can enter arbitrary values in the proxy configuration (in "System Preferences.app") without enabling the proxy.

That’s a bit strange – Rockbox Utility is even built on a 10.6.4 machine. The crash report somewhat indicates that it’s related to the proxy settings – do you have anything set for system proxy?

sduck commented on 2010-10-05 00:20

Not that I know of. I don’t even know what a system proxy is or how I would set one or unset it.

Just now I retried starting rockboxutility - for about the 100th time, with no hope of any change, but just wanted to make sure. This time, it started! But - I got this message - in the screen shot attached, about the system proxy settings being invalid. My fuze is out in the car, so i couldn’t check and see if it works anyway, but will soon.

Ok, yes it works fine. At least for updating the rockbox software, and installing themes - I didn’t try the bootloader install, didn’t need to.

The only thing that I changed between the non-starts and the working start was a small widget added to the dashboard - proxy on/off http://download.cnet.com/Proxy-On-Off/3000-12565_4-82552.html - I did a quick google search on “os x system proxy” as I have no idea what it is, and found this little widget. I didn’t actually change any of the settings that it controls - clicked the top one on and back off perhaps, but that’s it. I don’t know what it does.
