[1.0] Issues opening Sikuli files on Mac

Asked by king123

I am trying to save and open Sikuli files on Mac OS X 10.8.3

I installed the beta version of Sikuli for Mac from the file SikuliX-IDE-1.0-MacBeta999-app

In Sikuli I go to File-->Open and find the .sikuli folder I saved previously. However, the Open button is grayed out, as are the .py and .html files contained within the folder. I normally save Sikuli files in Documents, but I cannot open any Sikuli scripts that I have saved.

what Java version are you running?

did you have Sikuli X-1.0rc3 running before?

Java Version 7, Update 21 (build 1.7.0_21-b12)

I did not have Sikuli X-1.0rc3 running beofre.

I also have Sikuli-IDE 1.0.0 installed. I was trying to use that version previously, but had the same issue of not being able to save and re-open Sikuli files.

Stepping back to the Beta does not make sense.

You should use Sikuli-IDE 1.0.0

pls. start the IDE from commandline using:

sikuli-script d:5 -c

- try to open a script
- close the IDE

and paste the output here, that you get on command line.

I might not be understanding your instructions correctly, but when I enter

sikuli-script d:5 -c

into Terminal, I get this "-bash: sikuli-script: command not found" message. Another issue I have with the Sikuli-IDE 1.0.0 is that it is installed in Applications as a folder and does not have a .app extension. I downloaded the Sikuli IDE file from https://launchpad.net/sikuli/+download

You should not put the Sikuli-IDE 1.0.0 download into the folder /Applications.

If you want the app version (in fact an automator workflow), then you have to download and use the
Sikuli-IDE-1.0.0-App (Sikuli IDE "lightweight" Automator App for Mac 10.6+)

Sikuli-IDE 1.0.0 for Mac should be unzipped e.g. in your home folder.
Then go to the installation folder and have a look at the read me.

Can you help with this problem?
