Conflict with Little Snitch. BlockBlock does not load on reboot #33

Open iCSpotRun opened 2 years ago

iCSpotRun commented 2 years ago

Little Snitch seems to interfere with BlockBlock. With Little Snitch installed, BlockBlock fails to load on reboot even though Full Disk Access is granted. A manual reboot does not fix the issue. When removing Little Snitch from the system, BlockBlock functions normally again. I submitted this to Little Snitch support, but thought I would submit here as well.

I seemed to have resolved this issue by ensuring that BlockBlock is installed before Little Snitch. Installing Little Snitch then triggers BlockBlock's Alert where you can 'Allow' installation of the Obdev processes.

I still think this is an issue that should be corrected, but at least there is a workaround.

Uninstalling and reinstalling LS and BB did not fix this for me. Perhaps it needs to be a thorough uninstall with removal of all settings and configuration files as well. BlockBlock currently Not Active! for me.
