ulong ValentinaInit(
    ulong inCacheSize,
    char* inMacSN,
    char* inWinSN )
{
    // on the potential second call we must do nothing.
    if( gCache == NULL )
    {
        Init_ValentinaDlls();
        
        // First of all we search for VComponents folder.
        FindVComponents();

        // init path to ICU .dat file.
        // Inidirectly this will init gComponentsPath if it is
        // not inited yet.
        Valentina_Init_ICU();
        
        // PROTECTION: the minimal size of cache 1MB.
        if( inCacheSize < 1024 * 1024 )
            inCacheSize = 1024 * 1024;
        
        if( inCacheSize > 0 )
        {
            init_plugins();

            // FIXME: get a correct path from user for non-English lang.
            LoadErrorResource( NULL );

            gCache  = new Cache( inCacheSize,    kPageSize, 1 );
            gCache2 = new Cache( 2 * (32 * 1024), kPageSize, 2 );
            gCache3 = new Cache( 172 * (32 * 1024), kPageSize, 3 );
        }        

        SetDefaultExtentions();
    }
    
    if( gCache )
        return gCache->get_ByteSize();
    else
        return 0;
}

As you can see we simply try allocate cache by new.
And then we check that point is not NULL.

MAY BE you have send to ValentinaInit() very big value of cache size ?
I do not see any other reason.

Also often help next:

    run your built app from Finder by double click
    and see output in console.app

    sometimes it show system - level errors
