Hyper: New Hyper Install Won't Open on MacOS Catalina Beta

[ngurney]

• [x] I am on the latest Hyper.app version
• [x] I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate
• OS version and name: MacOS Catalina 10.15 beta
• Hyper.app version: 3.0.2
• Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js: N/A
• Relevant information from devtools N/A
• The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app: Is vanilla

Issue

I had Hyper installed before installing the beta and it worked as expected. Since installing the beta I opened Hyper for the first time today but was unable to change themes, it said the command "Hyper" couldn't be found. I figured something had broke so I removed it and reinstalled it. After reinstalling, whenever I try to install the app I get the following error:

I have not tried installing with Homebrew, and have double checked my Security & Privacy setting to make sure that isn't blocking it. I also understand my MacOS version is in Beta and I don't expect everything to work perfectly, I just wanted to bring it to the attention of the devs.

Thanks!

I have this same issue - at first I thought it was related to the Mac signing bug that's been going around. Codesigning and running chmod +x changed the error to the "this app is broken, you should move it to the bin" message. Running xattr on it now brings up an error message with a bit more info:

Exception Type:        EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT)

Installing via brew resolves this issue for me.

work rightnow, big thanks! https://zupimages.net/up/19/28/ubkl.png

any details on how?

open Terminal

brew update
brew cask install hyper

Won't install with macOS Catalina GM either. Tried to download and run from https://hyper.is with no luck.

[asdutoit]

Using the Brew method worked for me too.

[kdureidy]

I am using hyper v2.0, it works fine with Catalina

[Stanzilla]

there seem to be some problems with electron-builder and catalina, waiting for an update from them

[CsarGomez]

i got the same issue, after install via brew, is working on macOS Catalina

Here is a link to the mentioned upstream issue: https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/issues/4179. It appears that the problem is decompressing the downloaded zip with Archive Utility on Catalina.

brew is not needed to get Hyper running in the meantime. Here is how to get a fresh install working on macOS 10.15 Catalina:

1. Download Hyper — https://hyper.is/#installation

2. Use the terminal to decompress the downloaded zip file:

   1. Open a terminal window
   2. Type unzip (make sure there's a space after unzip)
   3. Drag the downloaded zip file into the terminal window (this adds the full path of the downloaded zip file)
   4. Press Enter

3. Step no. 2 produced Hyper.app in the same folder as the downloaded zip file. Move the app to your /Applications folder.

4. Open Hyper — it works and you don't need Homebrew!

For macOS Catalina Users:

I'm using latest and clean install macOS Catalina. So I got same issue before doing this steps:

Install Homebrew
Install command-line developer tools. Apply steps which @Squashycake mentioned. They're working fine.

brew update
brew cask install hyper

Solved for me. Thanks @Squashycake!

This solution worked for me, thanks!

Works. I chsh'd first and then installed via brew.

Homebrew may work but @jsejcksn recommendation to just unzip in your existing Terminal works.

Works perfectly, note that if you unzip on Desktop you might find the unzipped Hyper.app at root level
