[Mac] Newly installed Local app fails to launch

Support
1

I just downloaded and installed Local for the first time. But as soon as I tried to launch it, I got this error message:

24

SHA1 checksum passes:

00

Redownloading and reinstalling didn’t solve the issue. I’m running macOS Mojave 10.14.2. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hey @leonfeng –

Since the SHA1 checks out, I wonder if an extended attribute isn’t set correctly. Can you try clearing any extra attributes by navigating to where the Local file was downloaded and doing:

xattr -cr Local\ by\ Flywheel.app

From there, try to double clicking the application to launch it again.

Let me know how that goes, or if you run into any issues!

The issue was resolved by following the advice in this post:

Download and install Local 2.4.5 and check for updates.
