post by contributor Terry Lambert. This FAQ expounds upon Terry's post in an attempt to make the cause and resolution of this problem more accessible to the general Mac OS X user. Background All running programs on your Mac are processes. This includes both applications that you open and faceless background processes, i.e. processes without a graphical user interface (GUI), such as mds (the error 10810 finder Spotlight metadata server) or cupsd (the CUPS printing daemon). Activity Monitor shows a list of all running processes. Finder is an application, hence it is a process. Processes can launch other processes, known as child processes. For example, the launchd (launch daemon) process opens many background processes when you start up or log in to your Mac; launchd is the parent process and each process it opens is a child process of launchd. Mac OS X tracks running processes in a process table. Mac OS X has a default limit of 266 user processes per account. You can see this limit by issuing the Terminal command ulimit -a and noting the max user processes value. Once this limit is reached, the process table is full: new processes cannot be started until a currently running process terminates, hence new applications cannot be opened. If you attempt to open a new application when the process table is full, an alert dialog will appear showing error code -10810, e.g. The application appname.app can't be opened. -10810 where appname is the name of the application you attempted to open.

Google Apps QI B.A.S. Information Technology Contact Me The Infamous OS X execution error: An error of type -10810 has occurred. (-10810) This error seems to appear often when I am using osascript for automating http://jacobsalmela.com/infamous-execution-error-error-type-10810-occurred-10810/ things. This error is a bit of a mystery as hundreds of users will say. In addition, it is not even listed in the MacErrors.h file found at: /System/Library/Frameworks//CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/CarbonCore.framework/Versions/A/Headers/MacErrors.h 1 /System/Library/Frameworks//CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/CarbonCore.framework/Versions/A/Headers/MacErrors.h After a lot of searching, I found some possible reasons why this error occurs: there is not a GUI, but one is required-even if being run as root access to assistive devices is not enabled the process table the application is full (i.e. fork bombs or zombie processes) LaunchServices has some sort of failure Since I mostly deal with scripting and automation, this post will be more about that and not so much about the Finder not being able to open because of this error. There Is Not A GUI, But One Is Required This error sometimes appears when running a script that requires a GUI, but the script the application finder is being run as root. The solution here is to get the current user and substitute as them. First, you need to get the current user and store that value in a variable, which can be done a number of ways: currentUser=$(stat -f "%Su" /dev/console) # Alternate ways to get the currently logged in user currentUser=$(who | grep console | awk '{print $1}') currentUser=$(logname) currentUser=$(ls -l /dev/console | cut -d " " -f4) currentUser=$(printf "get State:/Users/ConsoleUser\nd.show" | scutil | awk '/kCGSSessionUserNameKey/ {print $3}') 123456 currentUser=$(stat -f "%Su" /dev/console)# Alternate ways to get the currently logged in usercurrentUser=$(who | grep console | awk '{print $1}')currentUser=$(logname)currentUser=$(ls -l /dev/console | cut -d " " -f4)currentUser=$(printf "get State:/Users/ConsoleUser\nd.show" | scutil | awk '/kCGSSessionUserNameKey/ {print $3}') Then you can run the script under that user's context: su "$currentUser" -c "your commands here" 1 su "$currentUser" -c "your commands here" When running as root, another method is to use bsexec . I found this method useful with terminal-notifier. loggedInUser=$( ls -l /dev/console | awk '{print $3}' ) loggedInPID=$( ps -axj | awk "/^$loggedInUser/ && /Dock.app/ {print \$2;exit}" ) /bin/launchctl bsexec "${loggedInPID}" sudo -iu "${loggedInUser}" "some commands here" 123 loggedInUser=$( ls -l /dev/console | awk '{print $3}' )loggedInPID
