Application fails to launch

See original GitHub issue

Opening it by clicking on the app icon fails silently, but attempting to launch it from the terminal (open -a happymac in Darwin) reliably produces the following error message:

LSOpenURLsWithRole() failed for the application /Applications/happymac.app with error -10810.

Same behavior whether I install the application using Homebrew or by the disk image downloaded from http://chrislaffra.com/happymac/happymac.dmg

Cheers!

@johnstephens This should now be fixed in v00025. If you restart HappyMac it should auto-update and work better on iMac’s. I do not have access to an iMac, so I could not do a conclusive test, so I would be happy if you can share your experience with the latest version.

Yes, that fixes it for me! Thank you, @laffra!

I tried installing the new version via Homebrew and then the Disk Image installer, and they didn’t launch. I’m guessing that those haven’t been updated yet. Cloning the repository and running it from the command line worked perfectly.
