NotifoGrowl not compatible with Growl 1.3
  • codeman38codeman38 October 2011

    After installing Growl 1.3 for Lion, the following error message appears when I try to launch NotifoGrowl:

    "Growl must be installed and running before using the Notifo growl agent. Requires Growl v1.2.1 or higher."

    As far as I know, the latest Growl 1.2 SDK should be compatible with Growl 1.3 (I'm using several other apps compiled against it with no issue), so I'm not sure where exactly the problem lies.

    Just brought this up with the Growl developers on Twitter, and they mention that the problem is in using the isGrowlInstalled method:

    The solution is either to switch to a different detection method, or to upgrade to the 1.3 API when it's released (which should be later today).

    ok, how do I switch to a new detection method? or has the new version been released /me goes to check

    still nothing, cmon guys! that twitter post didn't really explain anything

  • Any updates?

  • Then stop using growl 1.3!
