Unable to Execute Command about supportapp HOT 12 OPEN

Wondering if you had any luck fixing this?

I'm experiencing the same issue. Running a simple command such as open -a Safari works as expected. But I'm trying to trigger our MDM client and it fails. (even though the same command being run as the current user via Terminal succeeds)

No luck so far. We've put it on hold for the moment.

Thanks for the quick reply!

hmm.. tried to give it Full Access, too.. but no cigar. Guess we'll have to wait until the developers chime in.

I know someone who's created a simple automator app which runs an Apple Script. Calling the script by opening the app instead of running the command seems to work.

Similar issue- I have buttons that will open apps fine, but when it comes to running a script, it gets weird.
It will run a script first time, no problems. If I hit the button to run it again, the script output changes (incorrectly, I might add. For example- if I have a script that runs "fdesetup status | head -n 1" it will correctly report filevault on; if I run it again, it will say it's off. Uses an AppleScript popup to return the info). If I edit the script, nothing changes. Eventually, the script will stop being recognized at all.

Script is in /Library/Application Support/MDM/Scripts. Script is executable

Can also confirm the automator workaround

Can we maybe see several examples of commands or scripts that are entered in the config profile? We also currently have a problem calling a script in the support app. Thank you very much.

I'm also having issues with this. I've tried assigning a command in the form of /path/to/script.file with or without arguments, /path/to/binary arg1 arg2 and <shell built-in> arg1 arg2, but none of them work.
If I repeatedly click the button in the app, the app says ”An error occurred".
How is this supposed to work? Are there any logs?
Thanks!

Please note the current implementation of running scripts/commands is running in the user space because the app is sandboxed, so the script is probably not reachable or requires elevated privileges.

We are working on an (optional) helper utility to allow running scripts/commands with elevated privileges because we don't want to break out of the sandbox for security reasons. A beta will probably be released before the end of next week :)

The specific code I'm trying to run requires no elevation how ever.
Is there any logging or such?

Sounds good about the utility though, and nice that it's optional.

I just have seen the new beta, thanks a lot! Is the SupportHelper app available as well?

Hi @meta-github yes it's in the pre-release assets for the 2.4 beta:

Documentation: https://github.com/root3nl/SupportApp/tree/development
SupportHelper download: https://github.com/root3nl/SupportApp/releases/tag/v2.4-beta

from supportapp.

I think this issue can be closed now that SupportHelper is available. Yes?
