I’ve never had a user report this before, and I have other users who are happily running Lightwright on Big Sur.Ĭan anyone explain why this would be happening? How can I get it working? Is there some macOS magic I need to add for BS?įirst thing is to check and make sure that the kLWBundleIDStr is exactly the bundle identifier for the application. The user is getting the “could not create a Temporary folder” message. If gLWAppDataFolder=Nil Or Not gLWAppDataFolder.exists Then MessageBox(kSorryStr+" Lightwright could not create a Temporary folder") If Not gLWAppDataFolder.Exists Then 'Try to create it If gLWAppDataFolder=Nil Then 'Something screwy is going on GLWAppDataFolder=(kLWBundleIDStr) 'Note: kLWBundleIDStr is “6” In this case, the app is running on a bunch of Macs in their computer lab.
It only works if user has admin privileges, it fails for all other users.
This has worked great for years on both Mac and Windows, but one of my users (a university) just reported that on macOS Big Sur Lightwright cannot create the folder. When my app (Lightwright) launches, one of the first things it does is try to create a folder within SpecialFolder.ApplicationData to do work in, store settings, etc.
