Download app from Releases not launching #3

Closed Blatman closed 2 years ago

Monterey 12.6

The Burst Photo binary in the MacOS folder needs executable permissions - chmod 755 'Burst Photo' will allow the app to launch OK.

Thanks for pointing this out!

I was able to replicate the issue and fix it (on my computer) by running chmod +x "Burst Photo.app/Contents/MacOS/Burst Photo" …but this certainly shouldn't be necessary.

I'll look for a way to fix this. In the meantime, you can also download the app from App Store.

I fixed the issue by creating the release zip file using Mac's built-in Archive Utility, rather than relying on GitHub to create the zip file. I found some helpful discussion related to the problem here.

Could you please verify whether the release now works for you?

Blatman commented 2 years ago

Yes the app works fine - the binary in MacOS is now showing as an executable file.

Perfect, thanks for confirming!
