Does your /tmp happen to be mounted with noexec? You can check that with the mount command.

Edit: forgot to mention, it's working fine here.

[JakobDev]

Does your /tmp happen to be mounted with noexec?

No

[jakob@PC ~]$ mount | grep /tmp
tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,size=2169672k,nr_inodes=1048576,inode64)

Other AppImages e.g. the older continuous build of AppImageKit are working fine.

Please add more details on your environment. For instance, what distro (release), how you installed it, ...

[TheAssassin]

Also, please try outside of /tmp as well.

[JakobDev]

I'm using Manjaro stable. Please tell me what additional information you need.

Also, please try outside of /tmp as well.

That's a misunderstanding. I'm in a directory inside my home called tmp.

[TheAssassin]

I see. Please link a version of appimagetool that definitely works for you.

Edit: you already did, my bad!

Do you have AppImageLauncher installled? If so, please uninstall temporarily, then try again. Your configuration will be preserved.
