Errors on Grasshopper Loading Mac M3

Grasshopper ShapeDiver

Hi there @mathieu1 @shapediver @snabela ,

I have some problems loading the plugin in Mac OS (Sonoma 14.4.1 (23E224) on M3 Pro); everytime grasshopper loads it opens a window popup giving me these errors:

Errors-popup
Errors-popup1168×1878 222 KB

I am attaching the text version here below.
Errors.txt (103.1 KB)

Also, after closing the above window this other popup comes up with this info:

An exception happened when adding menu items:

Please let me know if you have a solution on how to solve this or if it takes more time to investigate.
Thank you in advance for your support!

Which version of the plugin did you install? Do you maybe have leftover files from previous versions, in case you installed them with a different method?

@mathieu1 thanks for your reply.

I installed the latest version, v1.17.0 on a completely new machine.
I double-checked and the only folder where it is installed is .../Library/Application Support/McNeel/Rhinoceros/packages/8.0
so, no leftovers from previous versions / different installation methods.

Thank you.

@Andrea_Tellatin many thanks for reporting this issue. We have filed it as a bug on our end, and should be able to fix it in the next release of the plugin.

@Andrea_Tellatin found the bug, it’s fixed in the upcoming release 1.17.2.
The following workaround should work for you:

  • Open the Terminal app on MacOS
  • Make sure you are in your home directory by typing cd
  • Type mkdir -p .local/share/ and press Enter, which will create the directory if it doesn’t exist yet.

Please let me know whether this solves the issue.

Hi, I have a similar issue, but for windows. Any workarounds you can suggest? I installed version 1.17.1

Please open a separate thread, this one is about a different problem which has been solved. When opening the separate thread, please include the precise error message you are seeing.
