Anybody get Spyder for Python 3.4 to work on OS X?

[statmobile]

Is this working for anyone?  I'm still having trouble where iPython Console keeps hanging saying "Connecting to kernel...".   I've deleted all of my Spyder configuration files, so this should be the default setup I believe.

Hi,

I tested our DMG a week ago in another Mac, and also found that neither our IPython nor our Python Consoles are working. It seems the interpreter is crashing immediately, but I don't know why because it works well for me in my build env (a 10.7 Mac).

Unfortunately, I won't have access to that Mac for another two weeks. Could you try to run the next command in a terminal, to see if we can have some light on what's happening?

    dtruss /Applications/Spyder.app/Contents/MacOs/python

I'm not sure if that's the exact path but it won't be hard to find if it isn't :-)

dtruss is the equivalent of strace on Linux, i.e. it shows all syscalls a process does. Here are couple of resources to learn a bit more about it:

1. http://www.brendangregg.com/DTrace/dtruss_example.txt

2. http://opensourcehacker.com/2011/12/02/osx-strace-equivalent-dtruss-seeing-inside-applications-what-they-do-and-why-they-hang/


I haven't used it before so I can give you more help :-).

Cheers,
Carlos

Sorry, Carlos. I ran dtruss and got nowhere, so I'll have to research
that command in the next couple of days and see if I can get some actual
output. Right now all I get is:

$sudo dtruss /Applications/Spyder.app/Contents/MacOS/python
Password:
dtrace: failed to execute
/Applications/Spyder.app/Contents/MacOS/python: unknown error

Which doesn't seem very helpful for you.

Just a side note, I also opened a thread about problems even trying to
point it to my own python 3.4 virtual environment, so there might be
more here. When I tried to compile it a little while back based upon
your guide I was having issues. I can try to retrace my steps, because
you might be having issues over some of these recent OS X upgrades.
Specifically, I'm not the biggest fan of the most recent one (Yosemite).

Thanks,
Brian

As I mentioned before, I can't seem to get any valuable information from using dtruss.  I did however come up with an idea, I decided to check the OS X Console logs and see what happens when I call the Spyder python at the command line and I got the following error:

12/30/14 11:31:27.684 PM taskgated[71]: no signature for pid=10020 (cannot make code: UNIX[No such process])

And just for the heck of it, I monitored the logs when I opened the Spyder app:

12/30/14 11:28:18.288 PM Spyder[10009]: WARNING: The Gestalt selector gestaltSystemVersion is returning 10.9.1 instead of 10.10.1. Use NSProcessInfo's operatingSystemVersion property to get correct system version number.

and closing the Spyder app while the Python shell is still hanging:

I hope this helps, should I continue to try to compile the Spyder app on a current OS X system?

[statmobile]

Okay, I finally could get it to compile from source, but I'm using MacPorts python, and I setup a virtual environment.  With a few tweaks to some incompatible modules, I can create an app, but as soon as I open the Spyder.app it crashes.  Here is what I see in the Console, which I think might be  helpful

I have the same issue. The iPython Console keeps connecting with out success.

I had been working fine with Spyder using the tkinter module but suddenly it began to no show the following message.

"No Python console is currently selected to run prueba3.py.
Please select or open a new Python console and try again."

If I choose a dedicated console the message doesn't appear but the script is not run. 

Best. IUF
