ForkLift 1.7 crashed on Snow Leopard

forklift.pngI’ve install ForkLift 1.7 and suddenly, it crashed. Examining the report that is supposed to be sent to Apple, I found that, ForkLift is trying to access some of the files that aren’t there.

Googled and found that the files has been placed under a different folder in Snow Leopard. Logical thinking, the files are there but ForkLift doesn’t know where they are.

Found a fix that restore those file references by creating symlinks:

sudo ln -s /System/Library/Frameworks/AppleShareClientCore.framework /System/Library/Frameworks/AppleShareClient.framework
sudo ln -s /System/Library/Frameworks/AppleShareClientCore.framework/Versions/A/AppleShareClientCore /System/Library/Frameworks/AppleShareClientCore.framework/Versions/A/AppleShareClient
sudo ln -s /System/Library/Frameworks/QuickLook.framework /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/QuickLookUI.framework
sudo ln -s /System/Library/Frameworks/QuickLook.framework/QuickLook /System/Library/Frameworks/QuickLook.framework/QuickLookUI
sudo ln -s /System/Library/Frameworks/QuickLook.framework/Versions/A/QuickLook /System/Library/Frameworks/QuickLook.framework/Versions/A/QuickLookUI

Run the above commands in terminal. If you have problem copying and pasting, download it here. Execute the file from terminal either by

$ ./fixsymlinks

or

$ source fixsymlinks

From whom did I get the solution… Zolntanb (thanks mate)
