Can't open Local 3.0.1 on MacOS Mojave 10.14.2

I just downloaded Local 3.0.1 for macOS and I haven’t been able to open it. First I got a ‘App is damaged and should be moved to Trash’ (I think that’s not exact wording but it goes along those lines). I fixed it by running sudo spctl --master-disable but then I get a ‘Local by Flywheel cannot be opened because of a problem’ error.

And here’s the problem report:

For what I could get it’s an Electron problem but I didn’t get anymore out of it. I downgraded to Local 2.4.5 and it worked.

Thanks in advance!

For information, all is fine for me (Mojave 10.14.2 + Local 3.0.1)

I have the same issue (but on Mojave 10.14.1). I checked the download SHA1 hash and it’s the same as listed - 07a72730baac08ba88d1cc1aaffecf2787b4b950

The issue seems to be with extracting from the zip file. I normally use The Unarchiver which resulted in the problem. However, if I reverted to the Archive Utility in the ‘open with’ menu, the extracted file works fine.

Thaaat was it. I verified the SHA1 too and it was also the same but I did used The Unarchiver to extract it. Everything worked fine after extracting the app with Archive Utility instead of The Unarchiver. I think we can mark this one as solved.
