cDock Helper not signed(?) #25

Closed herbs closed 8 years ago

herbs commented 8 years ago

Howdy,

I start up cDock at login. I'm now getting dialog boxes at startup that basically say that cDock Helper is not signed. I have to manually go to the General tab of System Preferences->Security & Privacy and tell it to load. I have it set for App Store and Signed apps.

Good Luck, Herb Schulz

Howdy,

Sorry, I should have added: OS X 10.11.3, cDock2 0.10.4. I was previously using cDock2 0.10.2 with no problems. The dialog box and requirement to go to System Preferences->Security & Privacy happens on every login; if it only happened once this wouldn't bother me.

Good Luck, Herb Schulz

Maybe try right clicking the helper and choosing open.

Howdy,

I'll have to check that the next time. I ended up allowing all apps to run; rebooted and was asked if it was ok to run the app; changed it back to only run signed apps and haven't had a problem since. I'm guessing that procedure allowed the quarantine bit to get reset.

Good Luck,

I decided I would fork over the $100 dollars to Apple and bought a developer account so from now on out all my Apps (cDock, Dark Boot, mySIMBL) will be code-signed and any helper tools should be signed as well.

Howdy,

Thanks for the information.

Just curious... will you be coming out with an update to cDock that uses mySimbl so there won't be a need to use SIMBL?

Good Luck,

No. mySIMBL uses (SIMBL) the same install process as cDock. Basically with the introduction of System Integrity Protection anything like cDock that's injecting into system apps will require SIP to be disabled at least once.

DockMod tried to get around this with an signed Kernel Extension but that only lasted like a month before Apple revoked their signature and add the extension to their Malware list.
