Cockatrice Stops Responding Mac Big Sur OS

Created on 25 Nov 2020  路  7Comments  路  Source: Cockatrice/Cockatrice

System Information:

MacOS Big Sur 11.0.1


I installed MacOS Big SUr 11.0.1 this evening.
After installing, cockatrice application would stop responding when I attempted to open the app.

I installed the latest MacOS version and when I attempt to deploy it, MacOS rejects because it cannot confirm that malware does not exist on the file.

My other applications are working fine. As far as I can tell, only Cockatrice is having an issue.

Hallo @MarcusTrevino! Thanks for opening this.

I've some questions for you:

  • Which mac do you use? The super new models with Apples own M1 chip? Or the older ones with Intel processors?
  • Can you give us the exact file name of the dmg binary you used for installation?
    And where did you download it from?
  • For clarification: You used an older version of Cockatrice before and it was working, you then updated the operating system and the old installation stopped working (freezes on start). After that you tried to install the newest version of Cockatrice, but it failed.

did you try the beta? https://github.com/Cockatrice/Cockatrice/releases
are you able to run the file anyway using the steps described here? https://github.com/Cockatrice/Cockatrice/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions#developer-cannot-be-verified-pop-up-message-macos

Hi. I was able to make it work by bypassing the security feature. So Cockatrice is back to working now. Thank you

For clarification, after installing a new OS on my macbook pro 17, the old installation stopped responding and froze when I attempted to start it. I installed the latest version for MacOS and I encountered a pop up window that prevented cockatrice from starting.

To remedy the problem, I followed the steps to start the application and bypass the security protocol. Cockatrice then worked as normal.

Thanks for clarifying

Which version of Cockatrice did you exactly install in the end? @MarcusTrevino
Can you copy the first lines of the debug log (in the help menu) here, please?
