Problem with 10.4.10
 

Today I made a clone of a 10.4.10 machine and then cloned it to a different Mac. Everything appeared to go as planned however one of my Java apps would not run because of the following message:

A script error -1728 occured: Can't get <<class fcrt>> of every <<class pcap>> of application "Finder".

Nothing I tried corrected the problem including running fsck, repair permissions and even re-installing the 10.4.10 combo updater.

Finally I ran Onyx and I ran the Reset for the Launch Services database maintenance command and that seemed to fix it.

Anyone else have an issue like this?

We've seen this quite a bit with 10.4.10, regardless of whether or not the system has been copied with SD... resetting LaunchServices fixes it every time.

Well that's good to know
 

Has this been reported on any of the Mac admin sites?

I have no idea, sorry.

Follow-up
 

Neither one of these two Macs were having the issue before they were imaged. The problem only occured after I had made the backup and copied the image to a different Mac.

So, it seems logical that SD did have something to do with the problem happening.

I'm doing a third Mac the same way right now, we'll see how it does.

Thanks

We don't make changes to the source, so I can't see how SD! could change these things.
