PAServer Error: file permissions do not allow debugging

[ChrisChuah 0]

After update the latest patch for 10.4.1 with the new PA Server, I could not run the iOS simulator in debug mode.

Usually, the prompt will appear to ask user to enter password for debugging but this time, it does not come out.

anyone having this error?

 

======= Log from PA Server ===============

>listen

======= End of Log ==============

I believe you need to give the PAServer read permission for the files in your scratch folder. Check permissions for PAServer in the Settings of your Mac. These permissions may get lost after an update of either the Mac or the respective application.

Hello,

   did you install new version of PAServer on both computers (is the same version on both)?

Its a update patch that provided the new PAServer.

The PAServer before this patch was working fine. 

I was using it to do debugging of my software.

Somehow i cant understand why the Embarcardero is asking me to debug on the physical device.

Its easier to debug on the simulator isnt it?

directly on hardware is more quickly!

• no talking about that in simulator can "dont" have access some part of hardware

Is it easier to debug on the hardware?

sometimes the debugger is quite slow when returning to the breakpoint.

thats what i feel.

Perhaps yours is a special case!

• Anyway, software (app) into software (IDE/debugger) into software (simulator) into software (VM) into software (O.S.) into hardware, it doesn't seem faster than software (app) into software (IDE/debugger) into software (O.S.) into hardware!

But I can be totally wrong, and, you right!

btw, do you know why is there a file permission error on the PA server? 

i checked on all the user:group in the PAServer and its root:wheel.

any ideas?

 

[Guest]

when this occurr:

1) user dont have it (permission) for access the system, folder, disk or services

2) software dont have it, for system, be user or softwares there is not differrnce. all it's "something" asking access to do "some" in "some place or device"

 

ex.: a service (software) can have a "access denyed", an user can have a "login denyed"....

Did You install new PAServer on Mac after installing path on Delphi machine? If You have diffrent version of PAServer on the "Delphi Machine" and "IOS Simulator Machine" it will not work.

hi

when the new patch is released, the PAServer pkg is also shown on my Windows VM. So i dragged the PAServer pkg into my Mac OS to install it.

After installation, i ran my app but it showed disconnected session. On the PAServer in my MacOS, it showed 

>list

Process Control Server started pid 1647 exe built Feb 27 2020

Error: file permissions do not allow debugging.

 

Just today, i saw another patch is released but my PA Server still does not allow iOS debugging.

I am running Mojave instead of Catalina because Catalina does not allow the PAServer to run because it is in 32 bit.

 

anyone can advise?

regards

Please see: http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Sydney/en/Acquiring_Permission_to_Support_Debugging_on_a_Mac

 

Although that page needs fixing. The file in question is: dbkosx_27_0

i did that but it still having the same error.

if not, i wont be so frustrated over it.

sigh

Also when i start the PAServer for the first time, it did not prompt me for the password.. i wonder why

I just made a video you Youtube on this error.

hopefully the members can advise me on what the error is.
