DO NOT REPLY [Bug 48411] New: Squiggle Mac OS X application bundle
does not launch or start when installed in a path that contains spaces
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48411
Summary: Squiggle Mac OS X application bundle does not launch
or start when installed in a path that contains spaces
Product: Batik
Version: 1.7
Platform: Macintosh
OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: SVG Viewer
AssignedTo: batik-dev@xmlgraphics.apache.org
ReportedBy: jalexanderdatkins@googlemail.com
Created an attachment (id=24733)
--> (https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=24733)
the corrected Squiggle.app/Contents/MacOS/Squiggle shell script
Overview:
The Mac OS X application bundle for Squiggle (a GUI front-end for Batik)
refuses to run if it is installed in a path containing spaces, and possibly
some other odd characters. However, it does not produce any error messages; it
just doesn't start.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a folder whose name contains one or more spaces.
2. Download the Mac OS X disk image from
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/batik/download.cgi#Download+a+distribution
3. Most OS X native browsers will mount the disk image automatically. If your
browser is a ported browser that doesn't do this, find the downloaded disk
image and double-click on it to mount it.
4. Install the Squiggle application by dragging it from the disk image to the
folder created in step 1, or to a sub-folder of a folder whose name contains
one or more spaces.
5. Un-mount (eject) the disk image.
6. Double-click on the installed Squiggle application to launch it.
7. When the computer displays the message '“Squiggle” is an application which
was downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?' click
Open.
Actual Results:
The Squiggle icon that appeared in the Dock in step 7 disappears. On
subsequent attempted launches (when the computer does not ask for confirmation)
the icon appears very briefly in the Dock and then disappears. No splash
screens etc appear. The following is written to the Console (which can be read
by opening /Applications/Utilities/Console.app):
Dec 18 15:45:25 Beetle [0x0-0x135135].org.apache.batik[77397]: usage: dirname
path
Dec 18 15:45:25 Beetle [0x0-0x135135].org.apache.batik[77397]: Unable to access
jarfile /../Resources/batik-squiggle.jar
Dec 18 15:45:25 Beetle com.apple.launchd[158]
([0x0-0x135135].org.apache.batik[77397]): Exited with exit code: 1
Expected Results:
The Squiggle application should launch, display a splash screen and continue to
run, and its icon should remain in the Dock until the user desires the
application to quit.
Build Date & Platform:
Build 2008-01-06 on Mac OS 10.5.8
Additional Builds and Platforms:
This only affects the Mac OS X application. The JAR file works just fine.
Additional Information:
I know how to fix this.
Inside the Mac OS X application bundle (applications on OS X are really just
folders whose name ends in '.app') there is a file at
Squiggle.app/Contents/MacOS/Squiggle. It is an executable shell script that is
run when the user double-clicks on the application. It attempts to start up
the JAR located at Squiggle.app/Contents/Resources/batik-squiggle.jar. It is
this file that contains the bug. This script reads as follows:
#!/bin/sh
JAVA=/usr/bin/java
[ -e "$JAVA_HOME/bin/java" ] && JAVA="$JAVA_HOME/bin/java"
"$JAVA" -Dcom.apple.mrj.application.apple.menu.about.name=Squiggle -jar
"`dirname $0`/../Resources/batik-squiggle.jar"
The problem is in the last line. The script should read as follows:
#!/bin/sh
JAVA=/usr/bin/java
[ -e "$JAVA_HOME/bin/java" ] && JAVA="$JAVA_HOME/bin/java"
"$JAVA" -Dcom.apple.mrj.application.apple.menu.about.name=Squiggle -jar
"`dirname \"$0\"`/../Resources/batik-squiggle.jar"
I have also attached the corrected script.

I can confirm this bug, and its solution.
In fact, I wanted to submit the same patch, since I did not find this page
before. To aid other users who encounter the same problem, here are the errors
that I got:
% open Squiggle.app
LSOpenFromURLSpec() failed with error -10810 for the file /Applications/Image
viewer/Squiggle.app.

I've checked that this is still present [1] in the trunk version, so I'm
adjusting the bug's metadata.
A quick web crawl validates [2] your suggestion. Thanks for the hint! ;-)

Available patch is pretty simple and seems very safe to apply. Could it be
committed?
