Talend compatibilty with MacOS 10.15

diazsmiedts — Sat, 16 Nov 2024 04:44:18 GMT

Hi, in a matter of days the new macOS version will be released (10.15) and I'm wondering if you tested the Talend 7.1 and 7.2 instalments already on the beta versions of this macOS release? Last year there were major issues with Talend on 10.14 as the tMap no longer functioned and crashed the Studio when clicking OK.

As the official compatibility still only mentions macOS versions up to 10.13, I'm afraid a similar bug/issue will occur with the newest release as well.

Please confirm you (Talend) or someone else in the community tested the Talend (Open) Studio versions for this new release (beta edition) already and that it is OK to upgrade my Macbook later this month to the newest and most secure version of the OS.

Thank you

Hello,

Please refer to this online installation guide for V 7.2 about:TalendHelpCenter:Compatible Operating Systems.

In the documentation we provide a list of platforms that are supported, in the sense that we do provide an SLA and technical support for them. This doesn't mean other (non-listed) platform will not work but simply we won't necessarily be equipped to help you with any issue you may face with them.
Best regards

Sabrina

Thanks for the reply Sabrina, but have you or the team actually installed the macOS 10.15 already (working public betas have been out for a couple of months) and checked if all is working fine in Talend Studio or not?

For security purposes, we should always upgrade asap to the next version.

I hate to be left with a non-operational system in regards to Talend if I complete the upgrade only to then notice another tMap issue or something similar like last year. And reverting back to an older version after an upgrade is no easy thing, so I would like a confirmation that it has been tested and Talend Studio works as expected on the soon to be released macOS Catalina.

Thank you for digging a bit deeper and getting me that confirmation

Hello,

There is no a related jira issue for support for OSX 10.15. Could you please create a new feature jira issue on talend bug tracker? Please feel free to add your urgent requirement and comments in it.

Our apologies for the inconvenience.

Best regards

Sabrina

Thank you @MSJ for checking this and now taking the risk of no longer being able to use Talend Studio.

@xdshi, I created a JIRA ticket for this 3 weeks ago and the status is still "new" and no-one at Talend seems to care about another year of not supporting upgraded macOS versions when they are released. Frankly I am appalled about the lack of interest of making sure your software keeps working. Beta editions have been available for months in a row, why doesn't the team look into these kinds of issues before the mass public is confronted with them?

Please fix this ASAP

First thing to say is that the MacOS installer version of Talend will not work - it is 32-bit and 32-bit apps do not work on Catalina.

So the first thing is to use the .zip version.

Once downloaded, unzip it.

Copy the entire folder to your Applications folder. You will find the cocoa app inside the Studio subfolder.

When you try to run this you will get the error, 'executable launcher was unable to locate its companion shared library'

From jira link provided for by @xdshi, the solution suggested by Nicolas Rousseau worked :
https://jira.talendforge.org/browse/TINSTL-1000?focusedCommentId=453438&page=com.atlassian.jira.plug...

So, in terminal :

/path-to-your-talend-open-studio-folder$ xattr -d com.apple.quarantine *

You can then open up Talend and let the testing begin 🙂

Thank you @jd101k2000 for offering this workaround, sounds similar to some previous installations I did but it still not really supporting "the rest of the world". Sorry, but if after 2 years the only official support is still stuck at version 10.13, something's off.

I will have to test myself as soon as I can, but also with previous versions (6.5 and 7.1) as I still support multiple clients working on with those set-ups. And it's not that Talend offers an easy in-place upgrade for on-premise TAC installations etc. Upgrading is a nightmare.

Just wondering is there any further update on the compatibility issue?

I have been using 7.2.1 on Catalina MacOS 10.15 for a few weeks now. It doesn't seem to introduce any new bugs.

If you are finding in-place upgrades a problem, just wondering if you have tried customising connections. (If you have, then the rest of the information is not for you, I'm just trying to be helpful - apologies.)

Here is what I do to help. First I store all my projects in one folder (e.g. /user/my user name/workspace). As this is a MacOs thread, I am assuming readers will be on MacOS.

I then have all the project folders in there.

When I open Talend for the first time after installing a new version and it lists the projects to open, I click on Manage Connections. I then amend the connection with the location of the projects, my email address, my name, etc.

This stops Talend from storing all the projects in a sub-directory of its installation folder.

If they were historically in another folder, export them using the relevant version of Talend and a connection that pointed to their original location, restart Talend with the new connection and import them into their new home.

As this folder is constant from one upgrade to the next of Talend, the first time I open a project with a new version of Talend it upgrades the project. No more upgrade hell!

Several caveats:

1) This assumes that you want all projects working on the latest version of Talend that you have installed. (Although Talend will only upgrade jobs when you open them.)

2) If you only open projects with older versions of Talend they will not be upgraded. (Be careful as an older version of Talend cannot open a job after it has been upgraded.)

3) Ensure that you have superb backups if you are using multiple versions of Talend in case you commit an error and upgrade a job that you do not want upgraded.

For the most part this works, I have only had one project that did not survive the upgrade... but I did have superb backups.

As I say, that is my practice. If it helps, great!

Hi,

sounds like a good way of working indeed. I was more talking about the inplace upgrade of the platform software (TAC, Nexus, ...). Last year, the solution was to upgrade to new studio and that usually means new platform altogether. But luckily the Talend Software works on Catalina. Did not encounter any issues with an already installed Talend 7.1 setup. As pointed out in previous replies, installation on Catalina cannot use the 32bit executable but needs the ZIP file instead (download, extract, fix potential issues as instructed before).

Thanks for your feedback!

I cannot install Talend Open Studio for Integration on macOS Catalina. 10.15 MacBook Pro. I read some posts and it mentions downloading zip version. I cannot find any zip file in download section and when I download Mac version, it provides a DMG ( Mac installer file ).

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Just download the general version that does windows and Linux. (Not windows only). It has the Mac version in it too.

Hope that helps.

Hello,

I'm trying to install Talend Open Studio for Data Integration but the installer does nothing when I try to open it. I'm assuming I'm dealing with the same problem in the post I'm replying to (I'm on Catalina 10.15.2). The only installer download I can find is at https://www.talend.com/download/talend-open-studio#t4, but it's a .dmg, not a .zip. Where is this zip file? Thanks for any help you can give me.
