Upgraded to the latest Yosemite version, and it appears to have broken Wineskin. I anybody else seeing this, or is it some other issue with my configuration?

4/12/15 8:30:33.807 PM WineskinLauncher[1085]: Unable to find class: X11Application, exiting
4/12/15 8:30:33.808 PM com.apple.xpc.launchd[1]: (104155024920239606.wineskin.prefs.74724[1085]) Service exited with abnormal code: 1


Thanks,

Aha!

Found a solution, although it's kind of bizarre. I think something during the update corrupted Wineskin preferences, although I don't know how/why.

To fix it, I had to manually run Wineskin. So, from the terminal:

cd /Applications/MoI v3.app/Wineskin.app/Contents/MacOS
./Wineskin

From there, I clicked on the "Advanced" button, then clicked the "Test Run"

It's slow, and it spits a number of scary error messages:
2015-04-12 20:55:20.838 Wineskin[1938:63563] Debug Mode enabled
2015-04-12 20:55:20.853 Wineskin[1938:63563] Wineskin: Starting WineskinX11

2015-04-12 20:55:28.351 Wineskin[1933:63561] NSAlert is being used from a background thread, which is not safe. This is probably going to crash sometimes. Break on void _NSAlertWarnUnsafeBackgroundThreadUsage() to debug. This will be logged only once. This may break in the future.

From there, MoI comes up cleanly. I don't know what Wineskin files get modified when doing this, but after doing this, I can run MoI directly again.

It did at least touch a binary Wineskin preference file in ~/Library/Preferences/[long number].wineskin.prefs.plist, and [long number] is different than the number that was reported in the error log posted above.

I hope this helps someone else.

Hi Samuel, hmmm that's pretty weird but I'm glad that you are back up running again.

If you run into it again try rebooting, sometimes it seems that something involving the system launching service gets stuck in some way and a reboot clears it out.

Thanks for sharing your experience, Samuel. I didn't encounter a MoI / Wineskin problem updating to the latest Yosemite.

I had the exact opposite experience with the latest Mac OS update.
It fixed an issue i had since Yosemite was released where i couldn't open a new window in Moi3D.

Now its working perfectly.
