#206 ProjectLibre fails to launch on macOS 15 (Sequoia) with “Bad CPU type in executable”
Hello,
I am trying to install and run ProjectLibre Desktop on my MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2018, Intel i5) running macOS Sequoia 15.7.4, but I am encountering an issue.
The installation itself completes without any errors. I have installed Java (Eclipse Temurin JDK 17), and it is correctly recognized in the terminal (java -version shows version 17.0.18).
However, when I try to launch ProjectLibre, I receive the following message:
“You can’t open the application ‘ProjectLibre’ because it is not supported on this Mac.”
I also tried launching the application via terminal using:
/Applications/ProjectLibre.app/Contents/MacOS/ProjectLibre
and:
arch -x86_64 /Applications/ProjectLibre.app/Contents/MacOS/ProjectLibre
This results in the error:
“Bad CPU type in executable”
Based on this, it seems that the application may not be compatible with my system architecture or macOS version.
Could you please clarify:
- Whether ProjectLibre Desktop is currently supported on macOS Sequoia (macOS 15)?
- If there is a compatible version available for Intel-based Macs?
- If not, what alternatives or workarounds you recommend to run ProjectLibre on macOS?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Best regards
Kilian Wolf
