I clone this project, cd into the examples directory, run what I believe are all the build steps, and then run the demo app as instructed. The app executes and terminates immediately, without adding anything to the menubar, although the script obviously runs. The built app throws immediately and terminates.

My steps:

I also built the packaged app. When I run it, it throws a js error immediately and terminates.

My steps:

Hello!

Looks like you are running electron 0.26.0. getAppPath was implemented first in 0.30.0. :)

@tomprogers

That looks correct. But it appears that example/package.json is correctly declaring its dependency on 0.30.0:

  "devDependencies": {
    "electron-packager": "^4.0.2",
    "electron-prebuilt": "0.30.0"
  },

It looks like the build command is out of date:

  "scripts": {
    "build": "electron-packager . Example --platform=darwin --arch=x64 --version=0.26.0 --ignore=node_modules/electron --icon=Icon.icns",
    "start": "electron ."
  }

But when I ran with --version=0.30.0, I got the following error:

[Sun 13:27:39] example $ npm run build

Yeah would be nice if the build command gets updated, thanks for pointing that out.

Not sure why your build command fails. Wild guess: maybe some broken symlinks somewhere?
What happens if you try to build with the latest electron version, 0.30.2?
You could also try to update to latest electron-packager v5.0.1.

In case it helps, I'm running OSX 10.8.5.

I checked, and neither electron nor electron-prebuilt list any incompatibilities with my OS. Perhaps I missed something.

I created a new project using yo electron (using yo generator-electron, which also depends on electron-prebuilt@0.30.2), and the base app also fails to start. Check out my stderr:

[Mon 21:04:07] skynet-yo $ npm list --depth=0
skynet-yo@0.0.0 /Users/mdyson/projects/skynet-yo
├── electron-debug@0.1.1
├── electron-packager@5.0.1
└── electron-prebuilt@0.30.2

[Mon 21:04:07] skynet-yo $ npm start

> skynet-yo@0.0.0 start /Users/mdyson/projects/skynet-yo
> electron .

[0803/210409:ERROR:file_io.cc(30)] read: expected 40, observed 0
[0803/210409:ERROR:http_transport_mac.mm(186)] Could not connect to the server. (NSURLErrorDomain -1004)

I think this may be an issue with electron-prebuilt, or electron proper. I've filed a ticket on the electron-prebuilt project, citing this one. If anyone has learned anything useful while investigating this, please post it there.

Thanks for your help, folks. 8)

Gonna close this for now as this is not a menubar issue.
