Running native distribution fails

[Fabian-K]

Hi,

I´ve written a small application and can successfully run it using the gradle run task. When using the native distributions, however, the application does not start.

On a mac, I can create the dmg but when starting the application, it instantly crashes. On windows, I can create the installer (exe/msi) and install the application. When starting the application, it however fails with a popup saying "Failed to launch JVM".

Is there any way to enable debug output/logs for the native distributions to find out what/why it is crashing?

Thanks!

You can try to run those distros from the command line, like open YourApp.app(on a Mac)

Thanks for the hint. I tried it, unfortunately, that does not seem to do anything for my application :/

I mean, running from CLI you can get an error name

Yeah, that's what I was doing and nothing happened. I now checked the system log and can see the following related entries (my app is named ui.app):

I have the same problem on a Mac. Trying to open the application in a terminal shows:

$ open ~/Applications/MapDemoDesktop.app
LSOpenURLsWithRole() failed with error -10810 for the file <myhome>/Applications/MapDemoDesktop.app.

i have the same error code, do you resolve it?

Yes, I found a solution via this Slack question: https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C01D6HTPATV/p1623494614056500
A few modules where missing which I could find via the gradle task suggestRuntimeModules. I had to add modules("java.instrument", "java.prefs", "java.sql", "jdk.unsupported","jdk.crypto.ec","jdk.localedata") to my gradle file.

Can Windows get the crash log? My computer can't reproduce the crash, but the customer's Windows will crash
