Cthulhu.app is damaged... #13

Open duane-edgington opened 2 years ago

duane-edgington commented 2 years ago

Hi Brian. I attempted to download and install Cthulhu app on my MacBookPro this morning. I got the following fatal error repeatedly when trying to launch: “Cthulhu.app” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Trash.

I had downloaded https://github.com/mbari-media-management/cthulhu/releases/download/1.0.0/Cthulhu-1.0.0.dmg from https://github.com/mbari-media-management/cthulhu/releases/tag/1.0.0

and double-clicked it to install. The error came after dragging the app to my application folder as instructed.

Any thoughts?

My Mac is running macOS Catalina. It is a MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019). Intel i9 processor.

That's Apple's Gatekeeper. There's some issue with MBARI's developer certificate and the application isn't notarized correctly. The current fix:

cd /Applications
sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine Cthulhu.app

Here's some info for me to follow up on notarizing the app: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/notarizing_macos_software_before_distribution/customizing_the_notarization_workflow

Thanks, that resolved the problem for me.
