Oxygen 24.1 is crashing as soon as it opens

[sanjiv86]

Hi team,

Oxygen 24.1 is crashing as soon as it opens on my Mac OS with Ventura
version.
I get a message to restore the last opened session but it again crashes.
Please see the following message that appears.

Another error was also received after the above message:

Please help.

I did install version 24.1 for macOS 10.12 and later on macOS Ventura 13.1 and still cannot successfully start oXygen. Trying to start running oxygen.sh in the terminal, I get the following error

Code: Select all

Hi,

Those are just warning messages in the Terminal, not errors. They are not relevant to the startup issue. They appear all the time with Java 17. We cannot hide them, Java insists on forcing them upon the end user.

I did install version 24.1 for macOS 10.12 and later on macOS Ventura 13.1 and still cannot successfully start oXygen.

Actually, you may want to read the topic that I mentioned in my previous post. It says there that:

If your Mac is a 2020 or later model with Apple silicon CPU, you should use the Apple silicon distribution of Oxygen (Universal starting with v25.0).

So, if you do have such a new Mac, for v24.1 you should be downloading "macOS 11 and later (Apple silicon*) (Includes OpenJDK 17.0.2)":
