[CLOSED/DUP] IDE Crash when external monitor looses power (Mac OS X Catalina)

J-M-L · April 7, 2020, 8:21am

Hi there

Running on OS X Catalina on a MacBook Pro with an external 30 inch display connected through USB C with a Thunderbolt 3 Express Dock. Arduino version 1.8.12

For some reason my external display looses power (T° protection) intermittently and all the windows thus are moved back to the Laptop display — well not quite all of them, only the Arduino IDE dies in the process. This was not the case prior to 1.8.12

EDIT: And actually the issue appears as soon as you move a window from one Screen to the other. Just tried moving the Serial Monitor to my embedded screen and the IDE died.

This is a known bug with Arduino IDE 1.8.11 and newer:

SIGABRT in Arduino IDE 1.8.11 on secondary screen of dual-screen Mac

Component: IDE Type: Bug OpenJDK

Arduino IDE 1.8.11 sometimes crashes with a SIGABRT. It seems to occur on a Mac …with a secondary screen plugged into it, when the IDE tries to open a new window on the secondary screen. I'm extending the desktop (not mirroring), with macOS Catalina 10.15.3 and Java 1.8.0_102. The system is a MacBook Air with an external monitor, and the crashes seem to happen when the IDE is running on the external monitor. From /var/log/system.log: ``` Feb 9 20:19:28 zephyr com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (cc.arduino.Arduino.18980[12902]): Service exited due to SIGABRT Feb 9 21:02:39 zephyr com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (cc.arduino.Arduino.18980[13352]): Service exited due to SIGABRT Feb 9 21:04:14 zephyr com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (com.apple.xpc.launchd.oneshot.0x1000001a.Arduino[27021]): Service exited due to SIGABRT ``` From the crash report: ``` Date/Time: 2020-02-09 21:04:14.278 -0800 OS Version: Mac OS X 10.15.3 (19D76) Report Version: 12 Anonymous UUID: CF37A47B-E000-2C7F-3B88-C469EB1A00D8 Sleep/Wake UUID: F0468D71-7D75-4004-9946-503F42AE9656 Time Awake Since Boot: 230000 seconds Time Since Wake: 93000 seconds System Integrity Protection: enabled Crashed Thread: 17 Java: Java2D Queue Flusher Exception Type: EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION (SIGABRT) Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000001, 0x0000000000000000 Exception Note: EXC_CORPSE_NOTIFY Application Specific Information: -[NSOpenGLContext setView:] must be called from the main thread.

The problem is Arduino had to switch from Oracle JRE to OpenJDK in order to notarize the Arduino IDE to meet Apple's new requirements introduced in macOS Catalina. But it turned out that OpenJDK caused a lot of problems, including this one. They went back to Oracle JRE in the Windows and Linux versions of the Arduino IDE for the Arduino IDE 1.8.12 release, but were not able to do this with the macOS version due to the notarization requirement.

The workaround is to use Arduino IDE 1.8.10.

I think they'll have it fixed by the time Arduino IDE 1.8.13 is released.

Thanks Pert - I missed the GitHub report, that's exactly it.
