Hello all,
I just discovered why sharity "crashes" on startup!
Well, first of all, it doesn't crash at all, but if you open the terminal and try to execute the program from the command line, you will receive this error:
[localhost:Resources/English.lproj/AppleMain_Sharity.nib] root# /Applications/Sharity.app/Sharity
Oct 07 17:58:13 Sharity[419] Unable to load nib file: AppleMain_Sharity, exiting
This should be kept in mind: because of the UNIX nature of MacOS X some programs give their output on the console....
So the problem is that it doesn't find the AppleMain_Sharity.nib file but if you list the contents of Sharity.app the file is there (it is a subdirectory: /Applications/Sharity.app/Resources/English.lproj/AppleMain_Sharity.nib)
so what's wrong with it? if you list it, here is the result:
[localhost:Resources/English.lproj/AppleMain_Sharity.nib] root# ls -l
total 264
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 2174 Oct 6 23:48 ExpertDis.

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 9941 Oct 6 23:48 objects.ni
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 330 Oct 6 23:48 verlauf.ti
for some odd reason (a bug somewhere) the installer did not create the correct file names but they where truncated.
If you just rename the files to their correct names the application will just run fine! here are the correct names:
[localhost:Resources/English.lproj/AppleMain_Sharity.nib] root# ls /Applications/Sharity.app/Resources/English.lproj/Main_Sharity.nib
ExpertDis.tiff Image-1.tiff ShLrg.tiff huelle.tiff objects.nib
ExpertEn.tiff NoE.tiff data.classes obdev.tiff verlauf.tiff
[localhost:Resources/English.lproj/AppleMain_Sharity.nib] root#
Hope this helps!
