Re: Error running installation manager on MacOS 11.6

Hi David,

The "regular" admin install will not work, or at least not put down a
working configuration for RDI in Catalina and onwards.

xattr -c gets around some Gatekeeper issues. If you have unpacked the IM
zip already then you can try xattr -c -r (might be -R) on the installer
root

The latest IM for Mac should install OK as a user install after that. What
version are you trying to install? You may wish to make sure that any old
versions are uninstalled.

I trust that you downloaded the latest IM for Mac?

Yes

And before expanding the .zip you ran xattr -c against the .zip

No. I’ve never had to do that in the past.

It unzipped fine.

Then you are only doing a user install (userinst) and not trying to run

an

admin install (install)?

I’ve tried regular install and user install, same error.
