Auto-update not working on Mac #33

Closed 65sc02 closed 5 years ago

65sc02 commented 5 years ago

On Mac Mojave 10.14.5 the auto-update of Nikola is not working right. It does tell me that there is a new update and that it wants to install a "Helper", I authorize it to do so, but it never does and keeps prompting me to update.

If I do the update manually, then it is quiet until the next update is ready.

I don't know what the reason is, but it is quite annoying...

Nevertheless: great APP!

Do you know what version transition this happened? What version you were in and which one you updated for? Did you download the DMG version or the Zip version?

I'm also on this very same mac version and it worked seamlessly for me. I recently changed for a simple notification when a new version is downloaded to an alert (more common and more effective).

If you are willing to help troubleshoot, can you do the following?

1) Download the 0.3.4 version here, the dmg version, and place it in the application folder replacing whichever version you have. 2) Instead of open the app directly, open it from terminal (so we can see the logs). To do so, navigate to Applications/Nikola/Contents/MacOS and the run ./Nikola. The app should open and details will be seen in the terminal. 3) Send me the logs and see if the update prompt works this time.

Thanks in advance!
