Error on Mac - DB Open Database reading "Java.lang.nullpointerexception"

[josephinehenze]

Hello!
After using GCAM successfully for a few months this past week it is not opening correctly.

I am running a Mac M1 processor with Sonoma 14.5 (which was updated within the last two months) and Java 21.0.2 and the ModelInterface will not open and is running the Java error "java.lang.nullpointerexception" when I try to link DB Open to the Database from the Output folder. This is the GCAM v6.0 with the ModelInterface from v5.4.

I have tried downloading Java and GCAM (different versions from 5.4 to 6) again and installing everything new and the error continues to persist. We have also tried this on a Mac with an Intel processor that has never used GCAM before and the same error occurs. I have tried removing it from the cloud and running it as well, the same error results.

Additionally, when trying to run "run.gcam.command" in the newly downloaded GCAM 6.0 versions, it additionally reaches an error and does not move forward. Are there any plans for new Mac architectures for GCAM v.6?

I receive this code in the terminal:

Thank you for the help!

Maybe you can try:
At the home directory of Mac, delete the ./Modelinterface.properties file
