i downloaded the .sh again and renamed it to .command after doing that and if i execute it from the finder i first had to authorise the execution. but then i got the following error: "The file 'OSX_Server_Script.command' could not be executed because you do not have appropriate access privileges' i gave chmod +x a shot, after that it works. i downloaded the .sh again and renamed it to .command after doing that and if i execute it from the finder i first had to authorise the execution. but then i got the following error: "The file 'OSX_Server_Script.command' could not be executed because you do not have appropriate access privileges' i gave chmod +x a shot, after that it works. Just found a quick and ugly workaround. If you chmod +x and zip the file the perms are saved in the zip. So after downloading the zip and decompressing it starting from the finder works https://mega.co.nz/#!hRhn1Cya!A_TcKMEec7dkcyl6vc936GNxRB9UtxHmfR_f7UFrEyQ

i tried to build an app which should be working fine https://mega.co.nz/#!tUhXRTjL!ZrTSkFS7_U6oSlpMdHnPoP7Lq4ETIj6Y_IEv63Vkkj0 when you start it it will also log output of the server to ~/PZ_dedicated.log also it checks if java is found with version is not < 1.7 and if the Java Folder of project zomboid is found. feedback would be great, it uses your script Rathlord

i think its not possible to set the perms of a file you let others download (the rights wont survive the download..) May be its possible to put it in some sort of app container with applescript, not sure about that.

You might have to right click it and select "Open With" and choose Terminal from your utilities folder; that shouldn't be happening, though, I'll make sure I have perms set right. I re-downloaded the script and opened it with Terminal the way you told me to, but Terminal just opened a blank Terminal window, identical to what happens when I just open Terminal by itself without the script. I've done this both with and without PZ running in the background. Any idea what might be the cause for this? If it helps out it any way, Terminal was not one of the recommended apps when I right-clicked and choose "Open With". I have also never had any mods or such installed. you could try it the same way as i did to get it running: download the script from Rathlord somewhere. open a terminal and cd to the directory where you downloaded the script to. If you downloaded it into your "Download" folder: cd ~/Downloads then i added the execute right to the script: chmod +x OSX_Server_Script.sh after that execute the script: ./OSX_Server_Script.sh Download OSX_Server_Script.sh to your Download folder Open Terminal App ( i use iterm2, the builtin Terminal is fine too) cd ~/Downloadschmod +x OSX_Server_Script.sh./OSX_Server_Script.sh

works like a charm now!

nope. no mods installed, plain PZ from steam.

Mavericks user here. I installed the JDK and executed your script. The Server started but when i try to join i get "the lua files on the server are not the same as on the client" or sth similar.
