“qmake” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified

I'm trying to install the omnetpp simulator abut I was not able to use its graphic interface. To run it properly I have to install Qt5 which I did through homebrew. My Qt version is 5.15.0 and my MacOS is Catalina (10.15.5 (19F101)).

When running the ./configure command to install omnetpp, I got the following error:

“qmake” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.

In summary I had problems with the omnetpp when trying to run the graphic interface Qt, then I've installed Qt5 and now I get an error telling me that qmake cannot be verified.

Thanks,

Solution

  • I was able to circumvent this problem by opening System Preferences, Security & Privacy, General, and then allowing the file to be executed. When I ran make again the Qmake command ran without any warnings or windows popping up.
