SimVascular not compatible with Mac update

Post by Hannah Cebull » Thu Jan 18, 2018 8:59 pm

Hello, I recently updated my macbook to High Sierra version 10.13.2 and it now will not let me open SimVascular. Is there a fix for this? Or will you be coming out with a new macOS version soon?

Thanks!
Hannah

Hi Hannah,

This is a known problem, some have fixed it by copying libz* files from /usr/lib to /Applications/SimVascular.app/Contents/Resources/sv_externals/lib.

For me, this did not work, and I would recommend building from source to avoid the problem entirely.

Also, see discussion also on this thread: viewtopicPhpbb.php?f=188&t=8401&p=0&start=0&view=

Best,
Alex

Hi Hannah
you can try this command in terminal:

rm -f /Applications/SimVascular.app/Contents/Resources/sv_externals/lib/libz.1.dylib
