Mac os catalina 10.15.4, The application “nostlan” can’t be opened.

[emolr]

Hi, i just found Nostlan, It sounds very cool!

After downloading and unzipping the latest and second latest release I'm met with 'The application “nostlan” can’t be opened.' when trying to open it.

Don't know if just my system, but it's not a message i've met before on this system.

Again, really cool project!

Thanks! You just need to follow these instructions for apps not downloaded from the app store: https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/open-a-mac-app-from-an-unidentified-developer-mh40616/mac

Hi @quinton-ashley

Thanks for getting back, I'm afraid it isn't enough. It isn't the usual problem with unidentified developer, so right click open doesn't make any difference I'm afraid.

I tried chmod +x ~path/to/nostlan.app/Contents/MacOS/*

This issue is still present. Like @emolr said this is not an issue related to "unidentified developer"

[quinton-ashley]

I think I fixed the issue. Try the latest release! v1.11.0

[rvega-arg]

I'm still having the same issue. There is any way i can provide you with more info related to the error? I'm using macOS Catalina 10.15.5

[quinton-ashley]

Okay now I think I fixed it, please try again. Thanks for bringing the issue to my attention.

[rvega-arg]

It is working now. Thanks!

[quinton-ashley]

Sweet!
