Hi,

You haven’t unpacked it with BOMArchiveHelper have you?

If the case, you have to unpack it with Stuffit or the CLI.
It should work fine after that.

if use this tool everuthing ok ? or not ?

Hi Paul.

Is there somewhere on the site that I can find your release notes and/or projected date for that 2.8.3 release? Just curious. 2.8.2 is pretty nice already :slight_smile:

#5

the upcoming 2.8.3 will be packaged as a DMG, and this issue will go away.

hello,

Me too, I use tiger 10.4.11
last days, I have downloaded Ardour2-PPC-5396.zip, unzipped with BOMArchiveHelper
(unarchiver don’t work) and Ardour don’t launch, I don’t get error messages
my previous version: Ardour2-PPC-4919 (2.8) work fine

Folks-

Regarding the original topic of Ardour not launching correctly…

http://ardour.org/node/2834

It is still a front page article. It is a known issue regarding zip files and Apple’s BOMArchiveHelper. The answer is going to be use StuffIt for the time being, and as Paul mentioned in the future DMG archives will be used to get around this.

@edyasko

Release notes tend to get attached to the release announcement. There is never a set date for a release, but my own personal suspicion (Which Paul can tell me is wrong of course;) is that there is an aim for another release of Ardour 2 before long at all.
