I can only test it in Ubuntu and Windows for the moment.

Steps to reproduce (in Windows)
1) Download:
http://files.pharo.org/vm/pharo-spur32/win/pharo-win-i386-201802072244-997e644.zip
2) Download:
http://files.pharo.org/image/70/Pharo-7.0.0-alpha.build.512.sha.881c01b.arch.32bit.zip
3) Unzip everything to the same directory, then start Pharo.exe
4) Execute in Workspace
Metacello new
 baseline:'Seaside3';
 repository: 'github://SeasideSt/Seaside:master/repository';
 load
5) Save and Quit
6) Try to start Pharo.exe

If I delete stderr, stdout and PharoDebug.log before restarting Pharo, I can see that stderr and PharoDebug.log are created at 0 bytes, there is no other log that I can find.

As you can see, no startup scripts are involved. This is a clean Pharo installation. And this happens both in Windows and in Ubuntu, no matter in which OS I try to do the download+load.

If it is of any help, this has been happening exactly since build 383. It worked perfectly up to build 382.

I had a similar situation due to a deprecation warning generated by my
startup script. I aborted from the debugger, and the image worked normally,
but when I saved, quit and tried to restart the image, it wouldn't open (VM
icon in list of active apps, but window never appeared macOS high Sierra).
