Well… everything is in the title. The app correctly relaunch though.

(ß63+10.6.8)

Is this a problem with the new crash dialogue in ß63?

What happens if you quit Quicksilver (using ⌘Q) then launching it normally?

I cannot reproduce this, unfortuantely.

It happens since ß63.

I've tried to clear caches without result.

⌘Q + relaunch works correctly

Confirmed. New to ß63 for me. Also for @Commandor on Twitter. 10.6.8. Normal quitting is fine.

Perhaps it's a 10.6 thing?

@HenningJ - can you try and reproduce? Maybe applicationWillTerminate isn't
being called when you relaunch with
⌘⌃Q on SL

I am on 10.7.2, not 10.6.

I am on 10.7.2, also crash when relaunching with ctrl+cmd+q.

Yeah, I'm getting that too.
I might even know why. @pjrobertson I think this might be caused by the recent fix in pull request #585. It will relaunch before the old app has actually quit, so the new one will read the state file, before the old one has written that it quit successfully. Maybe? :-)

That makes sense - saw the dialog before the bezel disappeared… :)

More details at issue #604. (Sorry for duplicate listing this bug; I didn't notice this issue report until afterwards.)

Maybe it's just me but it but my experience with Quicksilver is that sometimes it just crashes. Sometimes that is when it is first launching, and sometimes it's when I try and add an advanced custom trigger, or perhaps if I try and use some of the proxies and they don't like the object in the first pane. But the bottom line is I don't really care if it crashes because it's so awesome (after it actually starts).

And so when it crashes I immediately start trying to relaunch it until it gets going agin. Sometimes that's one time and sometimes it's about 5 times - but again I don't really care what is wrong with QS that much and I know you guys are working to make it better, so I'm not going to complain or ask "can you please make it immune to crashing" - that seems a little unreasonable.

But what I would ask is can we please just make it easier to relaunch it when it crashes? The crash reporting tool is a step in the right direction, but I feel like it might be good if it had an option that said something like "Always just try and restart Quicksilver X number of times before showing the crash dialog"

You've gone a bit off-topic there, clarkewd. But I think you may find something like what you are looking for at https://groups.google.com/group/blacktree-quicksilver/msg/c9def098f6c12cbe?hl=en

Haha, so it seems I have. I ended up here after looking at issue 587 (sort of a duplicate). I should have prefaced my soapboxing by mentioning that I'm annoyed by the popup message that keeps showing up and really I just want to be able to seamlessly restart quicksilver - even if it crashes when doing so. Thanks. BTW that is a really wonderful tip you have there with the KeepAlive setup :)
