Abort trap: 6 when running a python script

I am working on a python program that displays an animation, thus I am using pyglet. Until now I've been working with the python compiler that comes with Psychopy, but now I need to make this program as most independent as possible.

I have achieved this task with a Windows machine, in the case of OSX, I have followed this post in order to install pyglet. However, when I now run the program, it returns this:

libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException
Abort trap: 6

I do not understand what this error means, can anyone help me understand what have I done wrong?

I was getting the same failure on importing asn1crypto in Python (on MacOS 10.15.5). Uninstalling then re-installing openssl using brew worked for me:

brew uninstall --ignore-dependencies openssl

brew warned me that there were some files remaining which were not deleted (e.g. /usr/local/etc/[email protected]/cert.pem) which I moved to a backup location:

sudo mv /usr/local/etc/[email protected] ~/[email protected]

Then reinstalling openssl using brew cured the problem:

brew install openssl

Run your Python script like this:

$ PYTHONVERBOSE=3 python your_script.py

Check the last statement before Abort trap: 6, such as:

import asn1crypto._perf._big_num_ctypes # precompiled from ...
Abort trap: 6

Then, run it in a standalone Python interpreter:

$ python
Python 2.7.17 (default, May  6 2020, 10:47:56) 
[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 11.0.3 (clang-1103.0.32.59)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import asn1crypto._perf._big_num_ctypes
Abort trap: 6

Then you know that the problem is originated from the asn1crypto module, in this case. Dig into that file and find more...

But for this particular case, just delete the directory of asn1crypto package and try again. (pip uninstall asn1crypto may not work.)

I faced a similar error while using OpenCV. After googling for a while I found out that the error might be with the new macOS. It does not allow un-versioned dylibs to be called. I found the solution here:

https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/119429

In your terminal:

brew update && brew upgrade && brew install openssl
cd /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2t/lib
sudo cp libssl.1.0.0.dylib libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib /usr/local/lib/
cd /usr/local/lib
sudo ln -s libssl.1.0.0.dylib libssl.dylib
sudo ln -s libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib libcrypto.dylib
pip3 install --upgrade packagename

I have found the reason why this error appears. It is because I use the library TKinter, if I comment out the lines where I use TKinter, this error does not appear and it continues to execute the program.

I will edit this answer when I discover which is the proper way to use TKinter in OSX. But my main concern first is the pyglet animation, which does not work in OSX, but it does in Windows.

The error message doesn't tell us very much in this case. What you need to do (in debugging in general) is work out what succeeds and what fails in order to narrow down the problem.

Start with a script that just imports pyglet. If that works then import pyglet and open a window etc...

Report back when you know what line causes the error to occur.
