[Bug 977181] [NEW] X-1.0rc3: Mac: Sikuli only works for user who installed it --- workaround

 

Public bug reported:

**** problem
On Mac OSX after installing Sikuli (copying Sikuli-IDE.app from the install image to folder /Applications) it can only be used by the current user, that installed Sikuli.

Other users on the same machine, get the error message:

You can't open the application Sikuli-IDE 
because it may be damaged or incomplete

when trying to start it.

**** reason
in the installation files
Sikuli-IDE.app/Contents/Info.plist

is missing read right for the group and everyone levels.

**** workaround
After installing Sikuli run the following command from command line (Terminal session) logged in as the user who has installed Sikuli:

chmod og+r /Applications/Sikuli-IDE.app/Contents/Info.plist
