Loading libhostfxr.dylib failed in OSX #418

Closed inanx closed 1 year ago

inanx commented 1 year ago

Describe the bug IronModManager does not load because of a loading error (gatekeeper based on #119 )

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Download latest osx-x64.zip
  2. Unzip to a directory (I had mine inside Paradox Interactive directory in Documents folder), add execute permission via chmod, and run ./IronyModManager executable file.
  3. It errors out with a loading error.

Expected behavior Successfully open Irony Mod Manager.

Screenshots N/A

Logs Not an app/system error but these are the terminal logs:

Failed to load /Users/<redacted>/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Irony/libhostfxr.dylib, error: dlopen(/Users/<redacted>/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Irony/libhostfxr.dylib, 1): no suitable image found.

Additional context Updated based on the conversations on this issue.

Solution After downloading the osx-x64.zip in ~/Downloads, open terminal and run the following:

  3. cd IronyModManager.app
  4. mv ~/Downloads/osx-64.zip .
  5. unzip osx-64.zip

Open IronyModManager by any of the following:

  2. Terminal: cd /Applications/IronyModManager.app && ./IronyModManager
  3. Launchpad: search IronyModManager and click IronyModManager

I would say it's an incomplete download or corrupt download or gatekeeper. Then I saw the version 1.5.xx has long ago reached end of life and is no longer supported. 1.24.xx version is latest please try that.

FIrstly, thanks for this. I checked the downloaded version and updated the comment. It could possibly be corrupt download, so I downloaded again. I unzipped, changed permissions and executed it but I got the same problem.

I actually have to go to the Finder and right-click to open IronyModManager, but just can't get past this libhostfxr.dylib popup.

This is probably gatekeeper, see: https://github.com/bcssov/IronyModManager/issues/119

I know for a fact when it's not interfering that Irony works. Some unrelated screenshots shared to me by one of testers using mac big sur (which is I believe your version).

This was from a test done within the last 30 days (unrelated to the current issue though).

I was able to make it work without doing anything spectacular. I just copied the whole IronyModManager folder to /Applications and renamed it IronyModManager.app and double clicked it.

I tested it in game and true enough my test mod was in there. Amazing!

Thanks @bcssov! Count me in as one of your mac testers.
