Simulator logs

Hello everyone,

Is it any possibility to take a look at simulator logs? I can't figure out why I can't launch it on Mac OS X El Capitan. Simulator icon disappears from the dock right after launching.
I tried both 1.2.1 and 1.2.5 SDK versions.

Thank you.
  • I don't see any log files that you might be able to use to see what is happening. Do you see any output to the console in eclipse when you start the simulator? Are you launching just the simulator (ConnectIQ > Start Simulator) or are you launching the simulator and telling it to run a program as well?

    You might try launching the simulator from Terminal. I don't have a Mac handy, but you should be able to do something like this from Terminal.

    $ export SDKROOT=/development/garmin/connectiq-sdk-macos-1.2.5

    $ cd $SDKROOT/bin

    $ ./simulator; echo $?


    If you properly set SDKROOT to the path to the SDK root directory, this should start the simulator. When the simulator exits it should display the exit code. If the simulator appears and then disappears, that exit code may be useful.

  • To expand upon Travis's great idea, the command would be (assuming you're at the root of the the SDK):
    bin/ConnectIQ.app/Contents/MacOS/simulator; printf "\nError: $?\n"


    I can't think of a reason it would be doing this on El Capitan, so hopefully the error code gives a hint of what's going on.
  • Haha. It is now obvious I've never cracked open the MacOS version of the SDK. :)

    Thank you, guys.

    Awkward to to talk about it, but the problem is gone after a reboot :rolleyes:
