RV not launching from Shotgun anymore

RV
1

Greetings again,

I have recently upgraded to Mac 0S 10.15.5 Catalina. Now RV 7.7.1 will not launch from SG anymore.

If I have RV open it will work, but it will not launch RV anymore if it is currently not open.

Hi Daniel,

Can you try running RV from the command-line with -registerHandler to try to re-register the handler?

To do this, go to your terminal and run:

/Applications/RV.app/Contents/MacOS/RV -registerHandler

Once you do that, does it reassociate it with the rvlink protocol?

Thanks,
-Kessler

I was so hoping that was it.

Same. It bounces once in the Dock then nothing.

Can you check the console app and see if there are any cash logs unde User Reports around the times you are trying?

That’s strange, so it bounces once when you launch from Shotgun, but not when launching interactively?

It launches from the dock fine.
When I launch from SG without a current RV session open it bounces once then nothing.
When I have it open it usually works, just opens in the fresh RV session.
If I only have an empty RV session open it seems to always work.

Lots of times it wont load when I have a current RV session open. THrows a bunch of errors in the RV console. Seems like the contexts between the 2 RV session are not playing nice.

My session IS validated with our server.

ERROR: Toolkit initialization failed. Please authenticate RV with your Shotgun server and restart.
