Standalone not functioning

[thehat]

Greetings,
I have a Mac and Windows project which runs in the IDE. After I get the "Standalone application saved successfully",unfortunately, as an App, it fails to function.

Thanks to Jacqueline Landman Gay, I put this script into the opening stack and the SetUp button.
Upon opening the App I receive this message:

When I click the "SetUp" button I receive this message:

I can't seem to find the offending objects.

I would appreciate any suggestions.

Hi Gregg -

Thanks to Jacqueline Landman Gay, I put this script into the opening stack and the SetUp button.

What is "this script"?

Here is the script:

on errorDialog pErr
answer "An error occured:" && pErr
end errorDialog

If you use the "Include Error Reporting Dialog" option in the Standalone Builder you can get more comprehensive info.

The raw error info passed to the errorDialog message is better than nothing, but just barely. It has to be parsed to get the error code, which must then be used to look up the corresponding error string. The built-in error reporting dialog in the Standalone Builder settings does that for you.

I've attached a stack Jacque and I made for looking up errors.

Offhand it seems line 15 of the Blobman mainstack script refers to a stack it can't find, perhaps because that stack is external to the Blobman app which is buried deep in the mac app bundle.

This is the response I get when I include Error Reporting Dialog as provide in the Standalone Application Settings:

Argh. Their's isn't much better than the raw error data.

Back to my hypothesis: We know that little changes between development and a standalone, but one of those changes is that the stack that becomes the standalone is several folders deep inside a Mac bundle. And it appears the root problem is related to a stack that line 15 is looking for but can't find. So, if that stack is a separate stack file, you may need to change how you're addressing it.

What is line 15 of your Blobman stack?

Thank you,Richard. When you mentioned it was looking for a stack . That help me to solve the problem. I had selected "Move substacks into individual stackfiles" in the Standalone Settings.
It works now.
