My take on the classic Macintosh app Stapler (with a little bit of LaunchList)

Does not work, no rights even with full disk access #8

Gave Stapler full disk access, I still can not get it to work. Instead it always complains about not having any rights: grafik

Please try the troubleshooting steps in this comment: https://github.com/gingerbeardman/stapler/issues/6#issuecomment-2284942961

The problem is a permissions issue local to your machine and setup.

I'm also on Sonoma. Still doesn't work. Two clues:

  1. It only works with documents who are in "Downloads", not if anywhere else.
  2. Opening (read: double click) a Stapler doc does not open the items and closes. Instead it just shows the UI with the items that are in the doc.

Given that the app works, the problem is specific to your setup. We need to figure out what/why, so answers or results to the troubleshooting steps are essential :)

Please try the following approach to figuring if the app is running in translocation mode (from here)

In Terminal, whilst Stapler is running: ps xw | grep Stapler

I see:

% ps xw | grep Stapler
59298   ??  S      0:00.36 /Applications/Stapler.app/Contents/MacOS/Stapler

For an app running under Translocation, you'd see something like 

% ps xw | grep Stapler
59298   ??  S      0:00.36 /private/var/folders/x4/1234/T/AppTranslocation/5678/d/Stapler.app/Contents/MacOS/Stapler

Please let me know what you see!

Good news! I've been able to change my system setup to reproduce this.

Will fix it as soon as possible.

Very cool! What's the culprit?

Might not be relevant anymore, but this is what I got:

~►ps xw | grep Stapler
33128   ??  S      0:00.24 /Applications/Stapler.app/Contents/MacOS/Stapler
~►ps xw | grep Stapler
33247   ??  S      0:00.18 /Users/runxel/Downloads/Stapler.app/Contents/MacOS/Stapler

no real idea right now, but at least i can reproduce it :)

  1. drag add item from somewhere other than Downloads
  2. launch the item successfully
  3. save doc
  4. quit and relaunch the app
  5. try to launch the same item - fails

I released 1.2.1 but it's just to test notarization, the problem remains

Woop!

Fixed in 1.2.2 https://github.com/gingerbeardman/stapler/releases/tag/1.2.2
