I have no idea, but some debugging hints:
1) how are you running it from the terminal? If you aren't alreadyk, try:
open TheApp.app
Then you *may* get the failure, and if so, hopefully some output on the
console.
2) Open the Console App:
/System/Applications/Utilities/Console.app
Then try to start your app -- hopefully you'll see some eros reported that
might give you a hint.
Good Luck -- got to love how Apple hides stuff from the user :-(
