Unable to open the latest inspectit.app in Mac OS V11 - java.lang.IllegalStateException: The platform metadata area could not be written: /Applications/inspectIT/inspectit/inspectIT.app/Contents/MacOS/workspace/.metadata. By default the platform writes its content about inspectit HOT 4 CLOSED

It worked if I moved the application from the Downloads folder to the Applications folder.

Hi @dinesh4747,

Can you check that the user starting the inspectIT app has the rights to write to the /Applications/inspectIT/inspectit/inspectIT.app/Contents/MacOS/ directory and sub-directories, seams that Eclipse RPC is not able to write configuration stuff there.

In addition you can try to start with the -data parameter pointing to another folder:

./inspectIT -data <workspace_folder>

It's also possible to specify the workspace folder in the /Applications/inspectIT/inspectit/inspectIT.app/Contents/MacOS/inspectIT.ini file by prepending the data parameter before the -vmargs arguments:

-data
<workspace_folder>
-vmargs
-Xmx1024M
-Xms128m
