SLPlugin issues on MAC

I'm having an issue with getting movies/music to stream on second life, and after checking my activity monitor, I see one of the SLplugins is not responding. I've googled around a bit, but can't seem to find a way to fix it. I did a clean reinstall of firestorm, didn't work. I downloaded the offical viewer, and that didn't work either.

Anyone have any suggestions of what to try next?

There is a known problem on Mac which causes slplugins not to terminate when you logout. Often there will be stray slplugins left in a "not responding" state. If you relog without killing these old slplugins, it could cause your symptoms.

So logout of the viewer, force kill all slplugins that are still showing in your activity monitor (or reboot the Mac) and see if this helps at all.

JIRA issues reporting this problem:

  • VWR-18250 - SLPlugin keeps running after closing the client
  • BUG-3441 - SL plugin does not terminate properly and hogs CPU resources
  • FIRE-8806 - SLPlugin does not terminate after quitting FS normally

If this doesnt help then I suspect for some reason slplugin is crashing for some reason while the viewer is running.

You should also make sure that slplugin is whitelisted in your Firewall and antivirus software.
