I think the macOS build in the Releases page isn't working

[rogerluan]

Hello 👋

I tried downloading an independent version for macOS and the folder structure doesn't seem right. Here are some of the latest versions I tried downloading:

See how the path look malformatted? Maybe it was an issue when distributing the builds.

Any help here? I'd like to try this out 😊

Thanks in advance!

You mean that you are missing the "TinfoilWebServer_v1.6.0_Framework-Independent-osx-x64" folder, right? Which decompression program are you using? Can you try another one?

[rogerluan]

I'm not using any particular decompression program, macOS automatically extracts zip files on our behalf, it's transparent to the user 👀

[rogerluan]

Good call about the decompression program though, I managed to download the raw .zip disabling Safari's automatic package extraction, and then I extracted it using macOS's built-in decompression tool and it worked! 🎉

I'm facing another issue now, though: it can't find my folder 👀

{
  "ServedDirectories": [ "/Users/rogerluan/Documents/Nintendo\\ Switch/games/switch" ],
  "StripDirectoryNames": true,
  "ServeEmptyDirectories": false,
…
…

(also tried with single \ without spaces, didn't work either)

Getting this error:

The real path is /Users/rogerluan/Documents/Nintendo Switch/games/switch (no backslash, just a space that needs to be escaped probably)

EDIT: Nevermind, I removed the space escaping and it worked! 🎉 "ServedDirectories": [ "/Users/rogerluan/Documents/Nintendo Switch/games/switch" ],

Is there anything you can do on your end to fix the decompression issue? Maybe a simpler file structure? No special characters in the path maybe? No clue 🤷‍♂️
I haven't faced this problem with any other zip files I've downloaded

Only double quotes ["] and backslashes [] need to be escaped with a preceding backslash []. Not spaces (this comes from JSON specification).

I could probably do something for this, it's all about UNIX and Windows directory separator char [/] or [], but I've no time for this.
