Project Tool Permission Denied
-
I was trying the re-compile my C++ plugins for R21 and dowloaded the most recent Project Tool from Maxon Downloads.
When I try to run the Project Tool from the Terminal, I get a Permission Denied error.
I made sure that the privileges of all the folders (the Project Tool folder and the sdk folder) are all set to Read & Write for all possible users (I'm the only one using this machine).
What could I be doing wrong? -
Hi rui_mac, thanks for reaching out us.
Can you please report:
- OS;
- your user level (admin or standard user)
- the result of "ls -l" (or equivalent on Windows) in the terminal window where the kernel_app is located.
Thanks, Riccardo

Thank you for the reply, Riccardo.
I'm the administrator of my machine.
The OS is MacOS Catalina (10.15.1)
And here is the output of the ls -l command:total 23976
drwxr-xr-x 17 ruibatista staff 578 Dec 1 01:18 corelibs

Thanks Rui for following up.
Since kernel_app.app is just a folder on macOS, can you also check what permission has
./kernel_app.app/Contents/MacOS/kernel_app
which is the real executable?In my case I see
$ ls -l ./kernel_app.app/Contents/MacOS/kernel_app -rwxr-xr-x 1 riccardogigante staff 3998432 Feb 5 2019 ./kernel_app.app/Contents/MacOS/kernel_app
Finally please have a look at this thread.

Ok, made it work now. Thank you so much.
