MacOS open from Finder #13

Opening a text file in geany from Finder does not work if Geany is already running.
Neither of these options works :

  • right-clicking and selecting Open With does not open the document
  • double-clicking on file does not open the document (but I have time to see Finder animation of the document's icon, indicating instruction to opening is issued)

If Geany is closed, both above options starts Geany, and opens the file.

I have a feeling this started with MacOS Catalina
I have allowed Geany and bash full disk access from System Security settings, so that is not the issue.

This is most probably geany/geany#2344. Try the snapshot build from that bug report - it should fix your issues.

The snapshot found in https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/2344 gives exactly the same error, as the error initially reported.

OK, I've seen something similar but what I get now is that macOS opens a new instance of Geany instead of the existing one which is wrong too. Frankly I have no idea what could be wrong - I've tried various things without much success. The output inside the Console app isn't very helpful either. It's also possible it's a Catalina bug but no idea really.

Try to have a look into the Console app if you see some interesting log regarding this problem that could tell us more (I haven't found anything descriptive though ;-(

I don't think you'll see anything in Geany's logs - it isn't even launched by macOS in these cases.

The Console app isn't a terminal - it's a log viewer on macOS (you can find it under the Other folder in the launchpad). You can open the console app, then double-click a file in Finder and see if it says something interesting regarding Geany.

The 1.36 GTK3 version should work much better on Catalina.

I can't reproduce this exactly - in my case it starts a new Geany instance for every opened file (which isn't the right thing either).

Yeah, I saw those too but I don't know what they mean.

Anyway, I think I nailed it. The problem is this:

a723620

I've reuploaded the snapshot here https://download.geany.org/snapshots/geany-1.36_osx.dmg and I believe it will fix the problem for you. I don't think that what we did before was wrong, it's just that Catalina doesn't like it.

After rebuilding the Launch Services,

/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain user;killall Finder;echo "Open With has been rebuilt, Finder will relaunch"

I got the same behavior as reported by techee. That is, double-clicking a file now opens a new instance of Geany 1.36.

Still a problem -- but we see the same thing.

Hmm, but have you downloaded the latest snapshot? It should work now.

You did indeed nail the problem. Problem solve -- thanks a lot for your skills, and your professional communication
