LagnaOne

Actions to take AFTER downloading (copy/paste and save):

Step 1. In the Downloads folder (where it is downloaded from LagnaOne's official website https://AstroLagnaOne.in.net), double click the downloaded LagnaOne filename with .dmg extension. It starts the install.

Step 2. Drag/move the app file to the Applications folder.

Step 3. Open Terminal (found in Applications > Utilities). Run the below command (copy/paste):

xattr -cr /Applications/LagnaOne.app

Step 4: In the Terminal, run the below command (copy/paste):

chmod +x /Applications/LagnaOne.app/Contents/Resources/backend/LagnaOneBackend

Please confirm the LagnaOne.app filename in your Applications folder and correct the filename if required. It should be exactly as it shows in your Applications folder.

Step 5. Close Terminal and launch the app again. It should run. You can copy it to the Dock if you wish.

If you don't perform steps 1 to 5, you will get error "LagnaOne is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to trash" which is a common issue for any 3rd party executable binary app - mostly free or un-notarised applications in Mac.

Trouble-shooting for errors in Mac:

If there's any further issues like "Unexpected end of JSON input" or "LagnaOneBackend cannot be opened":

A) Go to System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down a bit then → General (or "Allow applications from" in later Mac updates) and click "Allow from Anywhere" when it shows security warning. Then run LagnaOne.
Note: In later Mac updates, select "Select anywhere" from the drop-down.

B) After doing A, if it still gives the error, then Right-click on LagnaOne in Applications folder, select "Open," and confirm any security prompts. Then run LagnaOne.

C) As a last resort, temporarily disable Gatekeeper. Please be warned that it reduces security access to your file system. To do that open the terminal by Applications > Utilities then execute the following command (copy/paste):

sudo spctl --master-disable

The above command temporary reduces security access to your file system so re-enable it later with following command (copy/paste):

sudo spctl --master-enable

Please ensure that you have Fuse installed. You can either install some Fuse manager tool or do the following steps to handle Fuse. Linux system requirements for LagnaOne - The FUSE package (libfuse2 or libfuse3) must be installed, because AppImage needs it to mount itself when run.

For most Debian based systems like Ubuntu, Mint, Zorin etc.:

sudo apt update sudo apt install libfuse2 chmod +x LagnaOne-2.5.0.AppImage

Then run LagnaOne on prompt as:

./LagnaOne-2.5.0.AppImage --no-sandbox

For most Fedora based systems:

sudo dnf install fuse fuse-devel

For RedHat Linux:

sudo dnf install libfuse

In older systems: sudo yum update then sudo yum install fuse fuse-libs
Useful Tip: Create a shell script with following content and save it in same folder/directory as the downloaded .AppImage file. Name the shell script as run_lagnaone.sh #!/bin/bash APP="LagnaOne-2.5.0.AppImage" if ! ldconfig -p | grep -q fuse; then echo "" echo "FUSE library not detected." echo "" echo "Ubuntu/Debian:" echo "sudo apt install libfuse2" echo "" echo "Ubuntu 24.04:" echo "sudo apt install libfuse2t64" echo "" exit 1 fi chmod +x "$APP" ./"$APP" --no-sandbox After saving the above shell script as run_lagnaone.sh give it execute permission: chmod +x ./run_lagnaone.sh To run it, always do: ./run_lagnaone.sh If you wish to launch LagnaOne from desktop, create the desktop script named LagnaOne.desktop with following content and save in your desktop. Change the '/path/to/where/is/run_lagnaone.sh' to your correct file location: [Entry] Type=Application Name=LagnaOne Comment=Launch LagnaOne Application Exec=/path/to/where/is/run_lagnaone.sh Terminal=false Categories=Utility; After saving in desktop, right-click the file, select Properties, then enable Executable as program, close it. Again right-click on file, select "Allow launching" once. That's all! Double click starts LagnaOne.
