Hi,

I have not used Cadanra2 recently so long and started from a new installation, but seemingly have a problem with launching Cadabra2 in my Mac (OS: Sierra 10.12.6). In the installation I have not got any error message. Also, I tried finding a similar problem in Q&A but could not find it. (Sorry if there is any.)

Below is what I got by trying launching "cadabra2":

*Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/cadabra2", line 22, in module from cadabra2 import ImportError: dlopen(/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/cadabra2.so, 2): Library not loaded: @executable_path/../Frameworks/wstp.framework/Versions/4.36/wstp Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/cadabra2.so Reason: image not found**

Also, the next is what was obtained by carrying out "cadabra2-gtk"

cadabra-client: spawning server libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type std::runtime_error: ImportError: dlopen(/usr/local/opt/python3/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib/python3.6/site-packages/cadabra2.so, 2): Library not loaded: @executable_path/../Frameworks/wstp.framework/Versions/4.36/wstp Referenced from: /usr/local/opt/python3/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib/python3.6/site-packages/cadabra2.so Reason: image not found At: string(2): module libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type std::logic_error: Failed to read port from server. Abort trap: 6

Thanks. P.S. I took off the bra and ket from "string" and "module" in the above.

There seems to be some problem with linking to Mathematica on your Mac. Try the cmake configuration stage with

cmake -DENABLE_MATHEMATICA=OFF ..

and try 'make' and 'sudo make install' again.

Hi Kasper, I succeeded in launching both cadabra2 and cadabra2-gtk with your suggestion.
