Error installing Julia Pro 0.5.2.1

I’ve been trying to install JuliaPro 0.5.2.1 on a mac, and I keep on getting this error.

I’ve tried several things but I can’t figure out what might be happening here.
As for the install log I have the following:

Could you mail the /var/log/install.log file to the support email id - juliapro@juliacomputing.com ?

Sure. I’ll do that.

Thanks.

I saw the same error while installing Julia Pro on a new Mac. I realized that I forgot to authorize Xcode: $ sudo xcodebuild -license Once I completed this, I was able to install Julia successfully.

Thanks. Unfortunately I did that as well for something else. It works for other stuff but not for Julia Pro.

My macbook installation also failed when trying to install matplotlib, using the mac’s default 2.7.10 python installation. Installing 3.6.1 (brew install python3) did the trick for me.
