activitywatch: Window tracking not working after upgrade to v0.12.0

  • I am on the latest ActivityWatch version.

  • OS name and version: macOS Monterey 12.5.1

  • ActivityWatch version: 0.12.0

Describe the bug

Since upgrading my aw-watcher-window bucket is empty.

I’m trying to refresh my memory from a year ago. I remember the titles use to go blank after an update, but this time its just totally empty.

The AFK tracker is populating ok.

I’ve gone into system preferences > security and permissions > accessibility and added in the AW executable in the Applications folder. (Is there any other category it wants to have?)

I’ve closed the app, and confirmed that the localhost server is no longer there, so I don’t think its still running in the background. After reopening it, still no improvement.

There are some links to various issues but they don’t seem to cover this.

Just to be clear, as per this doc:

https://docs.activitywatch.net/en/latest/updating.html#macos

It wasn’t in the accessibility list any more, so i didn’t just tick it, I added it in, and then restarted AW but still not populating the window bucket.

Thanks! There’s already an open issue for this problem:

Seems to be a case of https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68353353/crash-on-dyld-library-not-loaded-usr-lib-swift-libswift-concurrency-dylib-run

I’ll look into it, and I opened #801 to track the issue.

Thanks for reporting!
