Hello All. I've got an Apple M1 Max running Ventura 13.4.1 and am unable to get SoapUI to work. Whenever I run the SoapUI-5.7.0.app, I get multiple warnings that various libprism components of the app "will damage your computer". Clicking "Cancel" pops up the next error and after the last one the app launch fails and everything closes (or is closed by MacOS?). I initially wasn't even able to open the installer .dmg file. I had to use DiskUtility to mount the image in order to run the installer App. Then the installer App gave this error message: I was able to get around this by selecting “Get Info” from the context menu. In the Info window that appears, expand the “General” information, check the box next to “Override Malware Protection”. But now, the app won't run at all. I've tried this with the current version, 5.7, and previous version. How can I get up and running with SoapUI? And why is MacOS barking about the libprism components - are they safe? Thanks

The error is fixed in the new Release 5.7.1https://github.com/SmartBear/soapui/releases/tag/v5.7.1#### Released on 2023-08-01 #### Fixed an issue where SoapUI version 5.6.0 and 5.7.0 would not install or open on certain machines including Mac OS Ventura

Waiting for the SoapUI's team to release a new version with a valid certificate you can directly download binarries here SoapUI-5.7.0-mac-bin.zip : https://github.com/SmartBear/soapui/releases/tag/v5.7.0

Afterwards you can simply run
~/Downloads/SoapUI-5.7.0/bin/soapui.sh
in a Terminal window to start SoapUI

There appears to be a workaround/solution:
https://community.smartbear.com/t5/SoapUI-Open-Source-Questions/error-osx-soap-ui-malware/m-p/254206/highlight/true#M33879

I got it working by just removing the javafx jars, without installing Liberica jdk. This disables the browser component in SoapUI, though.

I encountered this problem today too. Running MacOS Ventura 13.4 on Apple MacMini M2. The app run a week ago just fine. Tried the install method mentioned by Misfits09 above, but having troubles installing required Java version 53 (9). The official Oracle packages are behing a login wall and I am able to install only version 52 (8).

Same issue, I don't know what to do. I installed SoapUI via brew, so it can open the application.

Same happened on my mac, than I removed the app and tried to reinstall it. That gives me the message that I can not install the app. I think SoapUI needs to renew the app certificate....

  I was able to mount the .dmg using DiskUtility, then selecting “Get Info” from the context menu on the installer. In the Info window that appears, expand the “General” information, check the box next to “Override Malware Protection”. This let me run the installer, but the app still wouldn't run after being installed.
