MonoDevelop Crashing On Startup with No Error Message
I'm having an issue on a Mac Pro where Monodevelop won't open, it crashes on startup. Essentially when I try to open any scripts Monodevelop starts to open, bounces a couple of times, then closes again. No errors thrown or other indications that something went wrong.
I included the crash logs I'm getting, and I tried to find the file it mentions not being able to open and its not there, on this computer or my laptop, which is working just fine. It seems to not exist, or at least it doesn't exist in the spot Monodevelop thinks it should.
I'm also working off of a computer that I don't have admin rights too, so that might be causing the issue. If anyone has encountered this problem before, please let me know.

I get the same error and the file IS there. Did you ever solve this?

Not sure if it will work for you but I had the same issue on windows: solved by installing the latest GTK: http://download.xamarin.com/GTKforWindows/Windows/gtk-sharp-2.12.25.msi
