Error on Opening Hazel 5 on Mojave Tue Nov 17, 2020 9:21 pm • by matthew
Hi, not sure if anyone else got this, but I just upgraded Hazel 5 and when I open it the new app, it tells me "Hazel can't be opened because the identity of the developer cannot be confirmed." I understand this to be a code signing issue.

I know you can force it to open, but I want it to run correctly.

What I've done so far is download another app by another developer to see if I got the same issue, and I didn't. I got the familiar warning the app was downloaded from the internet, but it opened okay. I also rebooted my Mac. After reboot, I opened Hazel and saw a brief progress bar that said "Verifying" but then the same error.

Any ideas? I'm running Mojave 10.14.6. Thanks,
matthew

This is a known issue. The app is signed and notarized but it seems that it will fail in a somewhat random fashion. I have a possible fix that will be deployed in the next patch.
