  • A couple VEP5 Problems

    Hello Vienna,

    I have a couple odd problems.  I am currently testing out VEP5 so I'm not sure if these are occuring because of my demo license, but I thought I would check anyways.

    First, Everytime I open up VEP5, I get a pop up window saying "Do you want the application 'Vienna Ensemble Pro Server (64-bit).app' to accept incoming network connections?"  Now, every time this occus I click "Allow" but for some reason VEP5 asks me everytime.  I even went into the OSX 10.8.2 security & privacy section in system preferences, under firewall, and VEP5 is listed under the allowed connections.  Yet this happens everytime VEP5 is opened.

    Secondly, When I was using VEP4, if I closed windows (instances) and then saved a metaphrame, those windows would stay closed when I reloaded that project in the future.  Now in VEP5 however, those windows (instances) open every time I load that metaphrame.  This is really annoying because some of my projects have a lot of windows and I have to close each one to free up my screen again.

    Let me know what you think.

    Cheers.


  • For the first problem, you might find the following explanation and procedure useful:

    This worked for me.

    Of course you'll want to apply the certificate to the VE Pro Server apps.  So after you create a certificate per the instructions, launch a Terminal session and then enter these commands (it will ask for your login password after each one):

    sudo codesign -f -s MYCA /Applications/Vienna\ Ensemble\ Pro/Vienna\ Ensemble\ Pro\ Server\ \(64-bit\).app

    sudo codesign -f -s MYCA /Applications/Vienna\ Ensemble\ Pro/Vienna\ Ensemble\ Pro\ Server.app
