OpenSesame quits unexpectedly

edited January 2016 in OpenSesame

Hello,

I am having trouble running an experiment for OpenSesame with the psychopy backend on a 2007 iMac (El Capitan). For some reason OpenSesame will "quit unexpectedly" when I run the experiment. I do not experience this problem when running the same experiment on my 2015 MacBook Air (also El Capitan). Any ideas on what the problem may be??

Thank you!

    Hi,

    To help figure this out, could you provide some more information? What exactly happens?

    • Does the crash always occur at the same moment in the experiment, and, if so, when?
    • What happens exactly when the crash occurs? Does OpenSesame close entirely, do you see an error trace, etc?
      - Do other experiments crash as well, or just this one? And, if the crash is specific to this experiment, could you upload it somewhere?

    Cheers,
    Sebastiaan

    It always occurs after the instructions page of my experiment. I have two experiments with the same format, and both quit at the same time. As I said, it works fine on my laptop but does not work on the iMac. I tried to copy the script into this comment box but it did not seem to work. What would you suggest the best place to upload would be?

    What is the next item which follows this instruction display? Have you tried varying this item to see if the crash then does not occur? Seeing the dump of the Mac's error console would be very helpful.

    The item after the instructions is MAINLOOP. I have also posted the script to pastebin.com with the title "opensesame script help." Thank you!

    I have also tried to enter items before the MAINLOOP, which do not cause the crash. I am new to opensesame, and am not sure how to get my experiment to work without the MAINLOOP

    Opensesame closing itself after running an inline python script (it closes sucessfully. No errors) and does not continue to the next block.
    Please help!!!.
    Thanks
