Cannot Run Xmage Launcher on Mac OS Big Sur

Title pretty much explains it. I’ve used xmage extensively on my windows PC. Currently I’m trying to run it on my MacBook, however I’m unable to run the Java launcher; I’ve tried everything from using the Mac tutorial on the xmage site to reinstalling Java. Basically when I run the launcher the task bar at the top acts like it’s running xmage, but there is no GUI window to start client. If anybody has any experience with running on Mac, and can offer some assistance please let me know. Thanks I’m advance.

You must grant access to execute java apps. Here is more details. Run that command from terminal in the launcher folder:
Code: Select all
xattr -c XMageLauncher-0.3.8.jar

I'm having the exact same issue and this didn't fix anything.

Same problem here, solved for me
1. Create the folder named XMage in your Applications folder
2. Move the XMageLauncher-0.3.8.jar (in my case) inside that folder
3. Open the launcer

Something that has worked for me is the following, I'll browse to the folder where the xmage application resides and then run the command below in the Terminal:

--
cd Downloads
java -jar xmagelauncher-0.3.8.jar

Hope that helps!
