It is on my macOS not possible to install STM32CubeProgrammer (Big Sur 11.2.1) I get the notice that the file is damaged. I tried it several times?! What is happening?? I saw that in 2019, 2020, this problem often was mentioned? How come? Best Regards

Hi @HMerz.1​ 

To install the STM32CubeProgrammer tool please try to launch the installer in CLI mode using the command:

./SetupSTM32CubeProgrammerx.y.z.app/Contents/MacOs/SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-x_y_z_macos.

Please let me know if it works. If not , send me the error log.

Dear Houda,
Thanks for your reaction and info. I tried to follow your advice. But I got the following output in Terminal:
MacBook-Pro-van-J:downloads Hans$ ./SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2.6.0.app/Contents/MacOs/SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2_6_0_macos.
-bash: ./SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2.6.0.app/Contents/MacOs/SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2_6_0_macos.: No such file or directory
MacBook-Pro-van-J:downloads Hans$
I certainly am doing something wrong?! But don’t have any clou what? I am not a Terminal expert as you see. Maybe you could help me with it. I need te install some firmware with STMCubeProgrammer.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Hans Merz

Hi @HMerz.1​ ,

To be sure That I well understand , can you please confirm that :

• you are under the install Setup folder : SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2_6_0_macos/
• you use this command :./SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2.6.0.app/Contents/MacOs/SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2_6_0_macos

Hi @HMerz.1​ ,

Hope you succeeded in CubeMX install when using this commands.

Hi Houda Ghabri,

I have succeeded in installing STM32CubeProgrammer. But the new Mac OS Big Sur is acting difficult in accepting this kind of (not Apple) software (maybe the combi with JAVA?). Anyway finally I succeeded in using your suggested commands in Terminal. But it took several tries and suddenly after almost an hour it got installed. I use STM32CubeProgrammer to install firmware for the TinySA project. In the beginning it didn't work but after a few tries the same outcome it suddenly installed the firmware. So I'm glad with the results but if it can help others? I think that Windows is a lot more friendly to foreign software than Apple OS. But thanks for the support!!

I finally managed to install this too with some help from this thread.

I downloaded the zip file to my Downloads and unzipped it there.

Then in Terminal I did:

cd Downloads/en.stm32cubeprg-mac_v2-11-0

Then I did:

./SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2.11.0.app/Contents/MacOs/SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2_11_0_macos

And finally it worked, producing this result:

Kefford@Keffords-Mac en.stm32cubeprg-mac_v2-11-0 % ./SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2.11.0.app/Contents/MacOs/SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2_11_0_macos
./SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2.11.0.app/Contents/MacOs/SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2_11_0_macos

This helped me as well, thanks for summary @Community member​ 

EDIT: similar approach works also for installation of CubeMX tool

I was stuck at the same problem. Finally managed to run the installer

./SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2.13.0.app/Contents/MacOs/SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-2_13_0_macos

Once during the process one has to intercept with the security settings, click Cancel (not into tray), go into System->Security and allow this app to be executed. Then start again. The security question then is not so strict and you can pass through every question and allow execution.

EDIT: found it using the global search in macOS. But still don't know where to find in the future rather than using the search function.

For me now the problem is: where in hell is STM32CubeProgrammer located now to invoke it?

What I do is the shortcut Cmd + Spacebar then type “cubeprog�? and hit enter. The actual location of it should be Macintosh HD > Applications (it’s buried in the folders STMicroelectronics > STM32Cube > STM32CubeProgrammer). Another option is to do the gesture to show all apps (it’s like a pinch with your thumb and three fingers on the trackpad) then either navigate to the app icon or just type “prog�?.
