Does not start on my Intel iMac w/ Mac OS X.5.8

Hi,

I just tried to start SmartPLS and double-clicking the icon does nothing. I think the version is 2.0, since the file name is: smartpls_2.0.M3_macosx.carbon.ppc.zip .

Console says:

Code: Select all

Oct  7 22:56:50 Unknown-00-24-36-ae-d1-36 com.apple.launchd[128] ([0x0-0x4ed4ed].org.eclipse.eclipse[15711]): posix_spawnp("/Applications/SmartPLS/smartpls.app/Contents/MacOS/smartpls", ...): Permission denied

Since this may be a carbon app I tried to run it in Rosetta but the corresponding option in the information dialog (x) Run in Rosetta is greyed out.

I am not sure if I have some libraries or extra components installed that may be required - or does SmartPLS just not run on Intel Macs? Do I have to install Eclipse?

smartpls on Mac OS X Installation failure

Post by JMU »

Hi,

I experienced the same problem on a Max OS X 10.6.5 with intel processor.
Double-clicking on smartpls.app in the application folder doesn't work.
The download version is also smartpls_2.0.M3_macosx.carbon.ppc.

Did anybody has a solution for that?
Many thanks in advance...

Regards,

Jörg

Mac Version Will Not Start

Post by philippklaus »

Dear all,

Regrettably, the corresponding software for MAC OS is not running on my MacBook Intel Processor OS Version 10.6.3 either. Double Clicking the PLS App logo leads to nothing.

Any advice on how to overcome this would be highly appreciated.

Yours sincerely

Hi

You find questions about Mac many times in this forum. Please use the search function first!

At the moment we do not support Mac OS. Use windows or linux on Mac.

Here, Dennis gives you some advice how he got SmartPLS started on his Mac computer:

viewtopic.php?t=1882

I cannot give further advice since I never touched an apple product...

Best
