Something must have changed to make SierraChart start not working under wine64. OSX 10.13.6 Wine64 version wine-4.5 staging 1. running SC version 2007 starts without crashing: ~/.wine/drive_c/SierraChart2007 $ wine64 ./SierraChart_64.exe

bisecting... SierraChart_64.exe version 2017 starts fine. Gets to login page. version 2030 pre-release crashes before login. (same segfault on reading 0x20 as above) version 2023 crashes before login. version 2020 starts fine and gets to login. version 2021 starts fine and gets to login. version 2022 crashes before login. (same Unhandled exception: page fault on read access to 0x00000020 in 64-bit code (0x0000000140d41e42). So something between SC version 2021 and SC version 2022 changed to introduce a segfault under wine64/OSX. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2019-12-29 02:20:40

We cannot help with this. There is nothing wrong in the Sierra Chart side.

I have the same issue with both Wine and Crossover, I vaguely remember there was an announcement says that 32-bit would not be supported started early 2020, but I just noticed that Version 2109 (May 21, 2020) still has "SierraChart.exe", I thought I try it, and it works fine. I just had to re-compile custom studies. I think Linux+Wine is the best option for Mac users.

Same here. I tried most of the obvious stuff, compiling 64 bit only wine etc. nothing worked. As I am using CrossOver, I sent a support request to CodeWeavers, they replied "...we can hopefully have a fix included in the next CrossOver update..."

Great news for anyone having a CrossOver licence. Today CrossOver 20 beta was released. It solves this specific problem and makes Sierra Chart 64 bit version working again on Mac. Tested on macOS Catalina 10.15.6 with SC 2159. |

@UnixManiac, I'm new to SierraChart and would like to use it with Crossover on my Mac. Is the current Sierra Chart version working with Crossover 20 beta? |

@QuantX I saw a post on this forum said the Crossover latest version works with Mac OS Catalina 10.15, and SierraChart 64-bit. I had a test drive of latest version Crossover with my Mac (10.13), it didn't work. Your best bet is probably install Linux and Wine Linux version. I have an iMac and dual boot with Mac OS and Linux, works great. Hope it helps. |

@Tony, thank you for your reply. Did you test with the Crossover 20 beta? I tried Crossover 19 and the current SC version. That didn't work. UnixManiac used the Crossover 20 beta. |

@QuantX Yes, I tested Crossover 20 beta, and failed to run Sierra Chart 64-bit, not sure if it was because my Mac OS version is too low. For the Linux, you can actually do a test drive without taking a plunge, here are the steps: 1, Download Linux Mint Cinnamon, https://linuxmint.com/download.php 2, Build a boot-up USB drive (>8GB) by using tool called Etcher, https://www.balena.io/etcher/ 3, Leave USB drive plugged in and reboot your Mac while press and hold Option Key. 4, You will see 2 icons (or 3), "Macintosh HD" "Efi Boot", select the latter 5, Once you see the desktop, go to "Software Manager" under main menu, search "Wine Stable" and install. 6, Download "Sierra Chart" and install. Although this is a fully functional Linux system, all the software you install won't retain next time you boot from USB, unless you install the Linux on hard drive. Feel free to send me a direct message if you have any questions. Enjoy! Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-10-08 04:24:48

@QuantX Yes it works also on latest CrossOver 20 beta 3. Tested with latest MacOS Catalina, SC 2177 on an iMac Pro. I am not yet using it day-to-day though, I am still on Linux but I am aiming to switch to MacOS hopefully when Big Sur is released. @Tony No idea about 10.13 - Better wait and upgrade to Big Sur if all works. Catalina is a mess anyway in my opinion. @ertrader There is no tasksel on MacOS, the problem here has nothing to do with libX. This problem exists and it was related only to MacOS/wine. |

@UnixManiac, thank you for your feedback. That sounds great, because I'd like to run it natively on my Mac without having to use a Virtual Machine as I do right now. Rather than buying a Windows license, I would pay for a Crossover license. @etrader, @tony, thank you for your feedback as well. As stated above running linux in bootcamp is no option for me. |

Before you make big changes, see if you can run the latest versions of wine on a mac. Something changed in SierraChart that impacted us to varying degrees back in the 2010s but it seems a tricky thing. Linux folk are running the latest versions of x11 (understood its not relevant but this is a subtle interaction encouraging our favourite charting platform to crash) but also going up to 2175+ and push wine up to 5.18 seem to have pulled us out of the hole. https://i.imgur.com/TsPz58f.png Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-10-08 11:51:26

Unfortunately there was nothing obvious to fix this. This is why I also relied on CodeWeavers support that they also confirmed the issue existing on MacOS/wine. So the good news are now it works on their beta. This means when they release crossover 20 hopefully it will still work and we are not gonna be up for any surprise. I will make a new thread when I start using it daily on MacOS. |

@QuantX You are welcome. I understand not everyone likes Linux. Just to clarify, so other folks won't get confused. Boot Camp is designed for Windows only, to install Linux on a Mac, we don't need Boot Camp, the process is way easier, all we need to do is to create an additional partition by using Disk Utility and install Linux on new partition. |

@Tony, thank you for your clarification. @UnixManiac, Crossover 20 RC1 is available now. I've downloaded it and successfully ran SC 2171 successfully with it. I'm going with the 14 day trial now and if it will work without major issues during this time I'll use this setup for my live trading. |

Installed Big Sur Beta (20A5384c) + CrossOver 20 RC1 + SC 2177. Performance on my iMac Pro is really bad so far. I tried to open a chartbook I regularly use with multiple tick charts etc, SC felt it was running really slow, resizing charts etc it was ok but for example if I tried to use the crosshair tool the lag was noticeable, ~2 seconds delay... I tried all settings, enabling OpenGL on SC etc, Crossover enabling/disabling options with no luck. There is no bottleneck on hardware, CPU usage was at acceptable levels, GPU when OpenGL was enabled it was ok with no more that 10-20% utilization, no issues with graphics looking out of place, just a very annoying lag on graphics performance. Compared to Linux, night and day difference. Not good, not good... |

How is performance with Parallels?

Also, it'd be interesting to compare the native Mac display driver versus the X11/XQuartz display driver in wine, which can be specified via command arguments.

Any solution that includes virtualization is gonna be slower. I tried it several times before with VMWare Fusion, always ended up with performance issues on my mac. |
