PhantomJS error after upgrading to macOS Catalina - see solution here
kensoh opened this issue · comments
After upgrading to macOS Catalina release, users may encounter a popup window saying that phantomjs is an unrecognised application downloaded from the internet. This is because Catalina release implements stricter security and access controls for applications running on macOS.
PS - PhantomJS is the execution engine for TagUI and is a critical component for TagUI to work.
I don't have a screenshot of the popup window anymore because I have fixed this on my laptop, it looks something similar to below image (for Terraform, another popular app that's also affected)
-
From macOS Finder, click Go menu, click Go to Folder..
-
Enter /Users/username/.tagui/src/phantomjs/bin (replace username with your user name)
-
Right-click phantomjs icon and click Open
-
If a macOS prompt appears to ask whether to open the application because it is untrusted and downloaded from the internet, click Open to add the app to list of trusted apps.
-
If you enter a PhantomJS terminal prompt, press Ctrl+C to exit.
-
Try running TagUI for Python again and the popup warning message should disappear.
Updated to readme with a link to this solution, keeping issue open for time being before closing.
