I used to support IBM AIX and later Linux systems about 20 years ago but even though I can remember the basics, I'm very rusty on problem solving on the OS level!

The directory /usr/local/bin is generally reserved for installs of additional software outside the standard items from the OS and those installed by Apple. There are standard policies for using it, Wireshark violated those by creating the directory only for its own usage. This probably only became ...

Getting in the right direction, the ownership on the directory is now right and the permissions need fixing up. Your system shows the following: drwx------ 26 root wheel 832 20 Apr 11:13 bin It should be: drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 136 Apr 18 02:26 bin Do the following to allow execute access to the u...

Okay, heard back on this. Ownership of the directory /usr/local/bin should be root, not '504', launchd will refuse to run anything there otherwise asa security hole. Probable source for this happening was the installer for wireshark. You will need to change the ownership: sudo chown root /usr/local...

The default paths running FAHClient from the command line places things non-default locations for the WUs, folding cores, work files, and the like. The correct paths can be specified on on the command line though. If you could check the Console log to see what messages are generated when launchtl s...

Welcome to the F@H Forum Hopbackguy, Can you please post your log file. Ensure that you have copied the System configuration which is present at the start of the log file: viewtopic.php?f=61&t=26036 :) Well, I went to /Library/Application Support/FAHClient but the folder was empty. I guess this...

I'm a new user, installed the latest package for MacOS last night. It installed fine, asked for my admin password. But I couldn't configure the client as FAHClient was not running, even after a reboot (I checked the Activity Monitor). It's in /usr/local/bin , and the plist file is in /library/launch...
