Mac OS Ventura Issue

There is a known Apple issue if running Somax v2.4.1 on Mac OS Ventura.
The Somax Server will give you the following error when you try to start it:

“launch_local can’t be opened because Max is not allowed to open documents in Terminal"

To fix it:

  1. Download iTerm2: https://iterm2.com/ (or another Terminal application)

  2. Go to Somax-2.4.1/misc → right click on “somax_server” and select Show Package Content

  3. From here go to Contents/MacOS → right click on “somax_server” and select Open With

  4. Select iTerm2

You are now ready to go!

We are working on finding a solution for further releases.
