Any clues Peter

Hi, this might have been an unintended side-effect of the change to use a new Mac path in ThreadKeeper 1.2.2 as part of issue #7 . I see that I did start working on a version 1.2.3 that would try both paths, but I did not complete that.

What is the threads path on your computer? Is it a), b) or something different?

/Users/<user>/Library/Application Support/Autodesk/webdeploy/production/<letters and numbers> (sorting by creation date might help finding the latest one)

a) Autodesk Fusion 360.app/Contents/Libraries/Applications/Fusion/Fusion/Server/Fusion/Configuration/ThreadData

b) Autodesk Fusion.app/Contents/Libraries/Applications/Fusion/Fusion/Server/Fusion/Configuration/ThreadData

[P2meter]

Sorry but I can't even find the directory webdeploy/production under Users/xxx/Library/Application Support/Autodesk/webdeploy/production.

[P2meter]

I reinstalled Fusion and did get the webdeploy folder this time.
The path is b): Autodesk Fusion.app/Contents/Libraries/Applications/Fusion/Fusion/Server/Fusion/Configuration/ThreadData

[thomasa88]

Did this solve the error or is it still showing up?

If it is still a problem, please open the text console (File -> View -> Show Text Commands), select Py at the bottom and enter:

app=adsk.core.Application.get()

app.userInterface.workspaces.itemById('FusionSolidEnvironment').resourceFolder

What is the output?

[P2meter]

This came up:
/Applications/Autodesk Fusion.app/Contents/Libraries/Applications/Fusion/Fusion/UI/FusionUI/Resources/Environment/Model

[thomasa88]

I see. hmm. The add-in expected that value to be something like

/Users/<user>/Library/Application Support/Autodesk/webdeploy/production/<hash>/Autodesk Fusion 360.app/Contents/Libraries/Applications/Fusion/Fusion/UI/FusionUI/Resources/Environment/Model.

So it seems that the thread data and the installation location differs in this case. 🤔 How bothersome.

So this is the full path to your ThreadData folder, below?

/Users/<user>/Library/Application Support/Autodesk/webdeploy/production/<letters and numbers>/Autodesk Fusion.app/Contents/Libraries/Applications/Fusion/Fusion/Server/Fusion/Configuration/ThreadData

If so, can you run this command? It will print some Fusion folder paths. There should be a copy button if you hover your mouse over the code box.

app=adsk.core.Application.get();import getpass; paths=['appLogFilePath','appStoreInstallPath','defaultPathForScriptsAndAddIns','materialsPath','optionsPath','rootPath','userDataPath'];print('\n'.join([p + ': ' + getattr(app.applicationFolders, p).replace(app.currentUser.userId, '<user_id>').replace(getpass.getuser(),'<user>') for p in paths]))

[P2meter]

Hi
Thanks
the path is as you wrote:

/Users//Library/Application Support/Autodesk/webdeploy/production/numbers123456/Autodesk Fusion.app/Contents/Libraries/Applications/Fusion/Fusion/Server/Fusion/Configuration/ThreadData

The result of the path script is:
appLogFilePath: /Users//Library/Application Support/Autodesk/Autodesk Fusion 360/<user_id>/logs/AppLogFile20250916T104107.log
appStoreInstallPath: /Users//Library/Application Support/Autodesk/ApplicationPlugins
defaultPathForScriptsAndAddIns: /Users//Library/Application Support/Autodesk/Autodesk Fusion 360/API/
materialsPath: /Users//Library/Application Support/Autodesk/Autodesk Fusion 360/Materials
optionsPath: /Users//Library/Application Support/Autodesk/Neutron Platform/Options/<user_id>
rootPath: /Applications
userDataPath: /Users//Library/Application Support/Autodesk/Autodesk Fusion 360/<user_id>

Thanks P2

[thomasa88]

Thanks for the info. Annoyingly, none of those paths contain webdeploy/production/<numbers and letters>, where the ThreadData folder is located 🤔

I think you used another installation method of Fusion than what I used when I ported the add-in to a Mac.

Can you try this instead:

• File -> View -> Show Text Commands
• Select Py.
• Write the below command and post the result:

import json; paths = json.loads(app.executeTextCommand("paths.get"));print('\n'.join( [f"{k}: {v}" for (k,v) in paths.items()]).replace(app.currentUser.userId, 'USER_ID').replace(getpass.getuser(),'USER'))

Hi, I think I may have a solution. Before I change the add-in code, would you mind trying the below code in the consale and see if it prints the path to the ThreadData folder in your Fusion installation:

import pathlib; import sys; print(str(pathlib.Path(sys.argv[0]).parent / 'Autodesk Fusion.app' / 'Contents' / 'Libraries' / 'Applications' / 'Fusion' / 'Fusion' / 'Server' / 'Fusion' / 'Configuration' / 'ThreadData'))

Thanks

[P2meter]

Hi,
input:
import pathlib; import sys; print(str(pathlib.Path(sys.argv[0]).parent / 'Autodesk Fusion.app' / 'Contents' / 'Libraries' / 'Applications' / 'Fusion' / 'Fusion' / 'Server' / 'Fusion' / 'Configuration' / 'ThreadData'))

output:
/Applications/Autodesk Fusion.app/Contents/MacOS/Autodesk Fusion.app/Contents/Libraries/Applications/Fusion/Fusion/Server/Fusion/Configuration/ThreadData

[thomasa88]

Hmm, that did not work either.. :(

I have created a question on the Fusion add-in forums, but it might take a while to find a good answer.

Thanks for reporting the result.
