Re: [Pharo-project] Error at startup with the NonInteractiveUIManager

April 25, 2012

      I've identified the source of my problem =)

I starts my image with a script like:

exec "$VM" $VM_PARAMS "$IMAGE" $STARTUP_SCRIPT
where $STARTUP_SCRIPT is the path to a .st file. That file was named 
"startup.st". Which is automatically loaded with Pharo 1.4. So it was 
loaded twice and my image was fucked.

I tried to modify my script to:
exec "$VM" $VM_PARAMS "$IMAGE"
and put "startup.st" next to the image. But that still gives me the error.

In the end I just kept
exec "$VM" $VM_PARAMS "$IMAGE" $STARTUP_SCRIPT

but rename the file lying in $STARTUP_SCRIPT in "start.st".

Everything seems to work fine now.

Francois, I think that stacktrace is a problem trying to write into
PharoDebug.log ANOTHER problem. So you shuld try to somehow see which is
the original error.
Cheers
I haven't identified the cause yet but if anybody had that problem
    before, i'm all ears ;)
Cheers,
    Francois
