Papagayo 1.2 problems

[Lost Marble]

However, does capitalization count here? It usually doesn't on a Mac but this is Unix no?

PS: I re-installed version 1.1 earlier today, should I re-install 1.2 before I run the test?

No, I don't think capitalization matters here, but this is a test for version 1.2 - it won't be meaningful for version 1.1.

and the "python" papagayo launched

Do you mean it launched successfully? So it runs from the command line, but not if you double-click it?

What version of QuickTime does everyone have installed?

Except for the time stamp I think the message is identical to the one I ran previously.

Oh, and QT is Version 7.1.2

hello,

I just tried papagayo on linux. When I start the papagayo script, I get:

/opt/papagayo/papagayo
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/opt/papagayo/papagayo.py", line 37, in ?
papagayo = LipsyncApp(0)
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/wxPython/wx.py", line 1951, in __init__

Any update on this? I just got an iMac Intel Duo with OS X 10.4.7 and am not able to run Papagayo 2. Is there a work around to launch it?

[bigkahuna]

Can you try this in Terminal?

pythonw /Applications/Papagayo/Papagayo.app/Contents/Resources/papagayo.py

Sorry, missed this post. This works for me. Is there a way to automate this? I'm a bit new to Macs and OSX.

For any of the Mac users out there who had problems running Papagayo 1.2, please try re-downloading and re-installing Papagayo from here:

http://www.lostmarble.com/papagayo/index.shtml

I believe it may have been an installer issue that is now fixed. If you try it, please let us know the results.

Still doesn't work. I tried launching the icon and nothing. I tried the command line and got this:

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Applications/Papagayo/Papagayo.app/Contents/Resources/papagayo.py", line 23, in ?
    import wx
ImportError: No module named wx

Still no luck in opening papagayo, I got this when trying to open in terminal:
Ulrik-Bod-ns-dator-2:~ ulrikboden$ /Applications/Papagayo/Papagayo.app/Contents/MacOS/Papagayo
-bash: /Applications/Papagayo/Papagayo.app/Contents/MacOS/Papagayo: /Developer/Applications/Utilities/MacPython-2.3/BuildApplet.app/Contents/MacOS: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

[Lost Marble]

Hmm, thank you - at least now I've got some interesting error messages to use to sort things out.

After running the command in the terminal window and getting the same error I took a good look at the syntax of the command - pythonw /Applications/Papagayo/Papagayo.app/Contents/Resources/papagayo.py and it struck me that I do not have Papagayo on that path. I have a sub-folder inside of applications called Lost Marble so I can keep things neat and tidy.

I put Papagayo on the path spacified in the command line and the result I get is a simple >. No error, no nothing. I am sorry it took until now before I saw the flaw, but I am not a programmer and my mind isn't given to thinking about problems like this in such ways.

Good grief...

Ever since OSX... I have had to actually learn about... <shudder>.... directory path names in applications... ick. Don't even get me started with Flash Actionscript class paths... AAAHHHHGGG!

The Teminal scares me to death... the application not the movie.

That is a weird thing old Mac sytem 6 fans like me didn't have to deal with for a long time... that's a SIX not an upside down NINE. I still miss it... multifinder... woohoo.

Alright, let's give this one more try. Mac users, please download Papagayo again and give it another try.

Sorry for all the confusion, but Papagayo is kind of a funny beast - it's written in a scripting language called Python. Python's a great language, but the combination of Mac application bundles, scripting languages, and Universal Binaries (both PowerPC and Intel code) makes for a convoluted installation. I think I've got it now - please tell me I'm right...
