I believe that the main difference between running an application from
macOS’s terminal and via clicking on it is that clicking on it runs the
application in a very bare environment with almost no environment variables
so that your application can’t find the home directory or the current
encoding/locale and any application which it is supposed to find in $PATH
will be invisible to it. I’m afraid the best I can offer for debugging is
to wrap your code in something like the block below then inspect
/tmp/error-message.txt to see what the problem really is.
import traceback
try:
# Your code here.except BaseException as ex:
with open("/tmp/error-message.txt", "w") as f:
traceback.print_exc(file=f)
raise
If you find that that file never gets written, it’s probably macOS’s
gatekeeper blocking your application from running.
