Osxfuse: FUSE doesn't work

[alkopop79]

I've installed and re-installed Fuse many times along with ext2-fuse. Still, it doesn't work at all. I'm trying to mount a Raspberry PI image file on an SD card but the partition I want to edit doesn't seem to appear. Interestingly diskutil list does show me the partition but I cannot mount it or read it.

How do I know Fuse works? How can I debug it and test it?

I've tried mounting an SD card which seemed to crash ex2-fuse. I got the following error:

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libosxfuse_i64.2.dylib means FUSE is not installed, or at least not installed correctly. How did you install FUSE?

[bfleischer]

No response, closed.

Interestingly, this error reappeared with MacFuse 4.0.2

I am also getting this error again. I thought it was BigSur related and I tried reinstalling MacFuse 4.0.3 after disabling csrutil as stated in #741 by mixtly87.

I checked the directories you mentioned in #741 and they all appear to have the required files in the right places. I also tried reloading the kext manually but this is still coming up.

@CamperGuy The issue you are running into is not related to loading the kernel extension. The version of SSHFS, that you are using, was linked against a legacy version of the FUSE library. Run the following command in Terminal to create a symlink pointing to the new version of the library. The "dyld: Library not loaded ..." error should then be gone.

ln -s "libfuse.2.dylib" "/usr/local/lib/libosxfuse_i64.2.dylib"

[CamperGuy]

That fixed it! Thank you so much

Same error after using BigSur
When I tried this suggested command to fix the libosxfuse_i64.2.dylib error:
ln -s "libfuse.2.dylib" "/usr/local/lib/libosxfuse_i64.2.dylib"
it shows the permission denied:
ln: /usr/local/lib/libosxfuse_i64.2.dylib: Permission denied
What should I do to solve this error?

[bfleischer]

@Yichao-Yao Run the commend with sudo.

sudo ln -s "libfuse.2.dylib" "/usr/local/lib/libosxfuse_i64.2.dylib"

You need to be an admin user and enter your password when prompted. I will add the symlink in the next macFUSE update.

Thx a lot, it works well now
