…Have I just hit this problem? Just downloaded: j806_mac64.zip from: www.jsoftware.com/download/j806/install/ and installed it as: /Applications/j64-806
I launch: jcon.app …Apple Terminal opens and displays: —————————————————————————————— Last login: Tue Apr 18 23:04:57 on ttys000 ian-clarks-imac:~ ianclark$ /Applications/j64-806/bin/jconsole ; exit; Illegal instruction: 4 logout Saving session... ...copying shared history... ...saving history...truncating history files... ...completed. [Process completed] —————————————————————————————— …and immediately exits. Contrast this with what happens with jconsole in j805 -- I get just the first 2 lines, followed by a J prompt. Plus Apple Console gives me a crash report (attached -- but does it get stripped off a forum email like this?) The same thing happens if I launch the following executable by double-clicking it: /Applications/j64-806/bin/jconsole Since AFAICT all IDEs call jconsole, nothing else works -- so no surprise about that. I notice you mention: "an avx binary JE on a non-avx platform". Is this something under my control? (I'd guess not). Oh, and one more thing… AFAICT the green J icon: /Applications/j64-806/jqt.app tries to execute an absent file: /Applications/j64-806/bin/jqt.command I'm running: OS X El Capitan Version 10.11.6 on an iMac(24-inch, Early 2009). Send me an Xcode project, if there's something I can help with, like recompiling a new jconsole executable. I gather Macs are in short supply on this list.
