Automator failed to save app. (A code signing error occurred.)

Hi,


I cannot save a new Automator app file with the error message below:

I found the similar situation on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Automator/comments/jtngjs/code_signing_error_on_big_sur/

They says "Deleting the /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools has fixed it." but mine didn't work.


Thank you,

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.14

I found the solution. In the Terminal, run "xcode-select --install". Then the app is launched and the installation begins. Next, run "sudo xcode-select --reset". Then the device password is required and the xcrun is reset. The the Automator save the file I made.

I referred to these:
