Whenever I called "system info" with AS, I got many lines of error as you did, and then the system info results. I had several non-standard scripting additions installed, and since I didn't really use any of them, I just ditched them all and I'm not sure which one caused the problem. If you are interested in tracking down the offending addition, remove them all, then add them back one by one until the problem is reproduced. hth vince Thomas,

The list is monitored on a regular basis and has been quite helpful for me in troubleshooting... http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rb-appscript-discuss Thomas,

Is this a known bug of appscript? Anyone else getting these in the terminal? The scripts executes fine still. I am getting a weird warning when running any of the scripts that use osax:
