Doesn't work on macOS High Sierra about shotgun HOT 8 CLOSED

Well i know this will probably never get fixed, but for reference if any of the forks wish to solve it, i found this article explaining the problem:

https://blog.phusion.nl/2017/10/13/why-ruby-app-servers-break-on-macos-high-sierra-and-what-can-be-done-about-it/

The article also mentions a workaround:

export OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY=YES

from shotgun.

For anyone coming here that upgrades to Mojave and exports the env variable and it still doesn't work, please please please run xcode-select --install and then make sure to open the Xcode app as it will ask you to install some additional components to get it running. Then restart your mac and it should be gucci.

Worked for me after installing passenger:

brew install passenger

export OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY=YES

from shotgun.

For people still having this issue in Mojave, try upgrading ruby to a version >= 2.4.4 in the Gemfile and run bundle install

Well, this is helpful as well in the Beta of Mac OS Mojave. Thank you.
