Mariano,

I had a similar problem on Linux a few months ago. It turned out to be my fault, and I am not certain how much a stack trace would have helped, because the problem was in the way I originally built the image, and that lead to ugly side effects in loading specific packages. Details aside, it seems _really_ bad to me for the vm to crash without leaving behind any traces of what happened.

Hi folks! I am having a crash in Mac OS using Squeak 4.2.2beta1U.app when trying to swap out unactive classes.

In the image it appears a windows or something like a console with just a part of the stacktrace. I attach an screenshot.

In PharoDebug.log I have nothing. I even tried to run the VM from command line, but nothing is shown in the console..

I opened a MacOS Console and the only thing I see is:

"12/29/09 5:54:19 PM Spotlight[217] Invalid kMDItemPath for pharo1.0-10496-rc1dev09.11.5.dbx.changes "

So, how can I get the full stacktrace of that ?

Thanks

Mariano
