Oops! NoSleep kernel extension is not loaded. #148

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
Seen reproducibly - i.e. both after an update from 1.3.3 to 1.4.0 and after a 
clean re-install of 1.4

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
App seems to install normally (finder, launchpad, preferences) but cannot be 
launched --> "Oops! NoSleep kernel extension is not loaded." error message :-(

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
OS X 10.8.5
Version 1.3.3 worked flawlessly
Version 1.4.0 shows the aforementioned problem

I have the same issue and I am also using OS X 10.8.5. I had to downgrade from 
1.4.0 to 1.3.3 to get NoSleep working again.

Hi everyone. This issue is because kext signature verification mechanism is 
different on OSX 10.8 and 10.9+. I don't have an access to system other then 
10.10, so If you will be so kind, could you check this attached version before 
it become available through autoupdate. Thanks! --Pavel

Hello

I've gotten this same error message on 1.4, 1.33, 1.31, 1.1.

Using 10.6.8

I have the same issue, I believe it was one of the recent security updates OS X 
had that is causing this.

Any idea when this can be fixed? I am still running 1.33. When will it be safe 
to update?

gsallman commented 8 years ago

This is still an issue. I cannot get 1.3.3 to work :( OS X 10.11.5

gsallman commented 8 years ago

Update. I loaded 1.3.3 as that was the latest version available to download here: https://code.google.com/archive/p/macosx-nosleep-extension/ (Link via LifeHacker) Re-reading the above comments I searched and found a copy of 1.4 here: https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/37991/nosleep

1.4.4 successfully installed.

ghost commented 7 years ago

Easy fix! Run the program (install the version above - https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/37991/nosleep). Run the program (Applications > Utilities > NoSleep) and check on the status bar, next to WiFi / VPN / Bluetooth. You'll see 'Zz' Icon in bold text. click and hit enable and BOOM done!

jjunot commented 6 years ago

Same problem on 10.13.1 High Sierra!

ashut0shk commented 6 years ago

MacOsHighSierra this would solve your issues.

sudo kextload -v /Library/StagedExtensions/System/Library/Extensions/NoSleep.kext

frostyandy2k commented 6 years ago

I was somehow missing the kernel extension, after reinstalling i found it under /Library/StagedExtensions/System/Library/Extensions/

Now it works.

chinarut commented 4 years ago

for me it was a permissions issue:

$ sudo kextutil /System/Library/Extensions/NoSleep.kext/
Password:
Diagnostics for /System/Library/Extensions/NoSleep.kext:
Authentication Failures: 
    File owner/permissions are incorrect (must be root:wheel, nonwritable by group/other): 
        /System/Library/Extensions/NoSleep.kext
        Contents
        _CodeSignature
        CodeResources
        Info.plist
        MacOS
        NoSleep

sure enough it is not root:

$ ls -al | grep NoSleep
drwxr-xr-x@   3 admin  wheel   102 Apr 20 02:06 NoSleep.kext

update permission:

$ sudo chown -R root:wheel NoSleep.kext

and reattempt load of extension:

$ sudo kextutil /System/Library/Extensions/NoSleep.kext

thanks everyone for the kextutil commands above to help troubleshoot what was going on!

chadify commented 2 years ago

I'm facing the same issue in MacOS Monterey 12.3.1.

I've tried running sudo kextload -v /Library/StagedExtensions/Applications/NoSleep.app/Contents/Resources/NoSleep.kext and then allowing the kernel extension in System Preference, finally restarting my system, but it opens up with the same error.

XtroTheArctic commented 8 months ago

On Ventura, I installed 1.5.2 and I still get kernel not loaded error.

When I try this command: sudo kextload -v /Library/StagedExtensions/Applications/Utilities/NoSleep.app/Contents/Resources/NoSleep.kext It says no such file is found but I know the file is there.

I copied the NoSleep.kext to another folder and run the same command with the new file path.

This time it says this: Error Domain=KMErrorDomain Code=27 "Extension with identifiers com.apple.nke.rvi,com.protech.NoSleep not approved to load. Please approve using System Preferences." UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Extension with identifiers com.apple.nke.rvi,com.protech.NoSleep not approved to load. Please approve using System Preferences.}

I have no idea what this is. And in Ventura, the system preferences window is a whole new mess. I can't find anything related to NoSleep in it to be able to approve anything.

Please help me guys.

After many months, today I was able to make it work so I am sharing my solution here too. https://github.com/integralpro/nosleep/issues/54#issuecomment-2179454800
