CPC on Mac OS 11 Beta blank window

[craigr]

Ironically I'm not upgrading my Intel-based Macs to Big Sur until I know Vault will work.

Just got my M1 MacBook Pro and am eagerly awaiting a beta client to help test

At this point in time, here is an update to a private build that should work with :

macOS 11.0.1 ( either intel or M1 using Rosetta 2 )
Java SE 15 SDK (Tested with this JDK, but earlier JDKs might still work)

After downloading it, you will need to untar it using a Mac utility or "tar xvfz ..." from the Mac OS Terminal.

Worked for me! Thank you.

That's great. Thanks for the feedback!

Worked for me! Thank you.

Downloaded the file. Google complained it couldn't scan the file for viruses and asked if I wanted to download anyway; I said yes. Double-clicking extracts Vault from the archive, but when I attempt to run Vault, Mac OS says it is corrupted and I should delete it. Tried tar from the command line and got the same result. Running Mac OS 11.0.1 on M1 mini.

Same results when I download to my Mac OS 10.15.7 MacBook Pro including all the nonsense from Google.

Apple's gatekeeper is blocking you from running the app. You can fix that with a terminal command:

xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Vault.app

or put the right path to your app.

After further review, I'm finding an issue where I can't see files until I re-size the columns in the view. Not sure if that is just related to the version of JRE I'm running or not. Added here just since I noticed it.

Thanks again.

The new build works on OS 10.15.7 but not 11.0.1.

I re-downloaded, re-unzipped, and copied the Vault.app file to Applications. I opened Terminal and executed the xattr command that had worked for me on 10.15.7. Now the app launches but immediately quits. Nothing on the screen. There's a momentary blink of the active window as if it is being dimmed to launch another app, but then it immediately goes back to normal and Vault is not running.

I have 11.0.1 on a MacBook Pro with the new M1 chipset. Mine is working.

I'm using Java 15.0.1
java version "15.0.1" 2020-10-20
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 15.0.1+9-18)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 15.0.1+9-18, mixed mode, sharing)

After I posted my comment I realized I hadn't verified the version of Java on this machine (none). Now I'm in. Thanks.

The Eclipse foundation is still addressing macOS 11 concerns in their releases, so not everything is 100% addressed just yet. I'll take a look later to see if this has been logged with them. If not, and I'm seeing the same thing, I'll log a bug with them regarding the drawing issue.

Thanks for the report.

A question to all...

Did you install the JRE or the JDK?

Past versions of Vault CPC (and the Eclipse internals) required the JDK. Not all of the Eclipse based libraries would run without it, and Vault app would fail. It would be interesting to know if that has been addressed by Eclipse Foundation.

Because of a problem with my Intel-based MacBook, I've been forced to work from a new Mac mini with Big Sur and the M1 chip. I installed the Vault CPC client build from the link posted above and it was working (or at least I thought it was). Today it had degraded to where it wouldn't update the list of files when I selected a different project/folder. Removed and re-installed but now I'm seeing the behavior described by another user where I have to do something such as resize the window before the file list is updated.

Overall I'm seeing a much greater degree of compatibility between tools like VS Code, node.js, etc. and the M1/Big Sur combo. Vault is lagging in this regard. Seems to be getting worse. Just letting you know. I may have to switch to my Surface tablet until I get the Intel MacBook back from the shop.

Hello again,

Thank you for the report. We are currently trying to recreate the problem on an M1 against the Vault demo machine. We'll let you know what we find out.

I have got the downloaded file to work, however when I login it throws this error:
You are attempting to connect to a Vault Professional Server with a Vault Standard Client. Please download the Vault Professional client from http://sourcegear.com/vaultpro/downloads.html [1025]
Any options to make it think it's a Professional client?
