New Electron does not start on OSX under Ceramic

[svetlyak40wt]

I've updated Electron with (ceramic:setup :force t), because it just showed gray window in a "bundled" version of the app. And now every time when I do (ceramic:start), I see system window saying "Electron quit unexpectedly".

I started to investigate the reason and come to this minimal example, which just starts electron and produces the same error:

(sb-ext:run-program
    "/Users/art/.ceramic/electron/Electron.app/Contents/MacOS/Electron"
    '("https://google.com"))

Process exits with code 6 and no output.

I've tried the same in Python, and it starts as expected, without any errors:

import subprocess
subprocess.check_output(
    ('/Users/art/.ceramic/electron/Electron.app/Contents/MacOS/Electron',
     'https://google.com'))

@eudoxia0 Fernando, do you have any thought why this could be?

This works for me

(sb-ext:run-program
    (truename "~/.ceramic/electron/Electron.app/Contents/MacOS/Electron")
    '("https://google.com"))

I do see a bunch of other issues, though

* (ceramic:start)
Ceramic: Starting server...
Ceramic: Starting Electron process...

Hey guys!

I found that if I start emacs end open an emacs shell. Then command "/Users/art/.ceramic/electron/Electron.app/Contents/MacOS/Electron /Users/art/.ceramic/electron/Electron.app/Contents/Resources/default_app/" fails the same way as when it is started from lisp repl.

But if I start lisp repl without emacs, then (ceramic:start) works as expected!

[svetlyak40wt]

Solved this by starting a lisp with swank as a separate process and connecting to it from the emacs.

Why does Electrum quit when loading Ceramic from emacs? Would changing emacs or slime/swank configuration fix this?
