JWLManager 4.5.0 don't start in macOS 12

stecchio66 opened this issue · comments

The latest release don't start.
The warning message at launch is: You can't open "JWLManager.app" because it is not supported on Mac".
My macOs version is Monterey 12.7.5

Thanks

Hi @stecchio66

Thank you for reporting.

I use Github runners (virtual systems) to build the different OS binaries. As per https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-github-hosted-runners/about-github-hosted-runners/about-github-hosted-runners :

  • The macos-11 label has been deprecated and will no longer be available after 6/28/2024
  • The macos-latest label (which I used) currently uses the macOS 14 runner image

I don't know much about Macs. Is upgrading from 12 to 14 a big/complicated/expensive issue? If it is, I suppose I could build with macos-11 for another month, but not after that :-(

The other option would be to install Python (3.11 or higher) on your system (along with the required dependencies).

Thanks @erykjj

I cannot update to macOS 14 because my iMac doesn't support it.
But is not a problem. For now i continue with 4.4.1 release.

Thank you again.
Stefano

I will build with macos-11 until no longer possible.
