Actually, can you please try the test download from #2307? We were investigating that issue actively and then everyone kind of disappeared. If you're available to take a look, maybe we can get a working version for all Mac users:

I did not launch it via mono, but via the I will try the download later. |
|
to confirm that, the file I replaced it with now it works. Should be part of the ckan formula, and so entirely fixable. |
|
OK, I don't think we maintain a "brew" or a "cask" or whatever that is, so you'd have to figure out who created that and report the problem to them. |
|
But it mentioned in the official (?) wiki, in the MacOS installation guide. I'll try to fix it, however |

Thanks for the link, the wikis are semi-official and contain contributions by both CKAN team members and other users. Checking the revision history, the homebrew info appears to have been user contributed, and I don't see CKAN team member names in the homebrew edit log either. http://formulae.brew.sh/repos/Homebrew/homebrew-core/formula/ckan Now that we auto-generate a CKAN.app bundle with each release, I'm thinking it might make sense to remove the homebrew stuff from the wiki. From a Mac user's perspective, is homebrew preferable over using an .app bundle? |

I just put in a pull request to fix the config. Homebrew ist the MacOS package manager. With it you can install (typically) command line utilities on the Mac. I love it and prefer to use it for most my installations, due to easy updating etc. The current ckan formula is here. There is Homebrew Cask, which his Homebrew, but for graphical and more complex applications (Mostly .app s). It would be great to have a Homebrew Cask for the ckan.app, because this is a very simple and familiar tool for many Mac users, and easy to update. Most my programs are installed with Homebrew cask. This does not exclude the possibility of downloading the .app separateley |

Excellent, thanks for pitching in! Would you mind sharing the link to your pull request? That could be very handy if we have problems with homebrew again. |
|
this is my pull request, I followed this tutorial for creating it. Thanks! |

Hmm, homebrew dismisses issues with their app because they don't like the "tone" of the conversation: Removing this from the wiki is looking like a better option every minute. |
|
I really like brew, I hope ckan can persist there. |
|
The problem is we would have to somehow communicate to every user who installs it that they need to run that command, OR find a way to run it automatically. What I'm trying to figure out now is whether a brew can depend on a cask. Maybe CKAN will have to be moved from brew to cask so it can depend on mono-mdk. |
|
You are probably right. However maybe just add the Mono-mdk to the wiki? |
|
OK, we are now in Cask, Homebrew/homebrew-cask#44397. It'll download the current CKAN.app which still needs to have its launch script fixed as per #2329, but once that's done this should be a way of depending on the right version of Mono. |
