Xojo r3 - Mac - "Xojo" is damaged and can't be opened.

Patrick_Lim · September 17, 2013, 2:04pm

Tried downloading the latest r3 version. The .dmg file verifies ok and opens. After copying the folder over to my Mac, when I try to open the Xojo file, I get the error message “Xojo is damaged and can’t be opened . You should move it to the Trash.”

Corrupted file on the download server?

Same here

Christian_Schmitz · September 17, 2013, 2:10pm

Here it works. Maybe you try again?
Or take the other version (multi lingual vs. english only)

I just DL’d the English OSX version… and it installed properly

William_James · September 17, 2013, 2:14pm

English only OSX downloaded, installed and ran properly for me just a minute ago.

David_Wylie · September 17, 2013, 2:15pm

Worked OK for me.
I chose the first option on the page (the one it autodetected for me).

Patrick_Lim · September 17, 2013, 2:16pm

I was using the autodetected download too.

I’ll try the manual download of the English only version.

OS X Multilingual is corrupt. OS X English Only is good.

Paul_Lefebvre · September 17, 2013, 2:23pm

This is strange. After downloading OS X multilingual again, it just opened and ran fine here on my OS X 10.8.4 setup. But on a VM with 10.8.5, I am getting the “corrupt” message (and a different file size).

OS X Multilingual is corrupt on OS X 10.8.5 on an iMac (not a VM). Perhaps it’s an issue unique to OS X 10.8.5.

Patrick_Lim · September 17, 2013, 2:29pm

English-only works for me, after the autoselected version didn’t.

I’m on 10.8.5 too.

Peter_Fargo · September 17, 2013, 2:38pm

10.8.5 for me too.

Frederick_Roller · September 17, 2013, 2:39pm

OS X Multilingual is also corrupt on OS X 10.8.5 running in a VMware Fusion VM using both the Download for Mac and Multilingual buttons on the Download page. I tried both just in case they were different DMGs.

Gurdip_Gill · September 17, 2013, 2:42pm

I am also getting the corrupt message. Please fix this.

Peter_Fargo · September 17, 2013, 2:48pm

Multilingual/English only - Same problem.

Stephane_THIROUX · September 17, 2013, 2:56pm

Corrupt message for me too (OSX 10.8.5 version Multilingual)

Paul_Lefebvre · September 17, 2013, 2:59pm

We are looking into this. It seems to be a problem on 10.8.5/10.9, but not on 10.8.4 or earlier.

Paul_Lefebvre · September 17, 2013, 3:16pm

OK, this appears to be a code signing issue. We’ll get new DMGs with the properly signed app uploaded soon. In the meantime, you should be able to launch it if you temporarily disable GateKeeper.

Mike_D · September 17, 2013, 3:29pm

Any lessons learned that you can share that are relevant for fellow developers? Did something change in codesign verification in 10.8.5?

Frederick_Roller · September 17, 2013, 3:29pm

Thanks Paul. Will you please pass along the details so that we don’t run into the same problem distributing our code signed OS X apps?
