Gatekeeper / Terminal Error Message objc[7234]. How to fix it?

First, digging in console logs without a completely-specific item you are looking for is the path to madness.

Second, Don't bypass the protections, whatever MacWorld says. If you would like to install an item NOT from a registered developer, DON'T go poke around in Terminal.

Use this article, which (if you read carefully) shows TWO different methods for authorizing ONE item at a time of unregistered developer software on a case-by-case basis: one in the main line, and [my preference] one in the Notes:

Open a Mac app from an unidentified developer - Apple Support

.

Hi leroydouglas,

I was trying to open the Anywhere option from Gatekeeper in order to open apps not from Mac App Store. I was following this guide to open a Mac app from an unidentified developer.

So I open Terminal and enter the following code to get the Anywhere option,

sudo spctl --master-disable

but doesn't seem to enable the option in System Preferences. So how can I enable "Allow apps downloaded from Anywhere" via Terminal? I am using the latest macOS Big Sur Ver 11.1

When I tried to check the status on Terminal using the command;

 % spctl —status

Hmm. First let me say there are more generic ways to allow installations locally—

ref: Open a Mac app from an unidentified developer - Apple Support

I can verify Big Sur macOS 11.1 using the zsh, I see no issue with the command line.

—Verify you are admin

—relevant or not I unlocked the pad lock in Sys Pref before I tested...

—Verify you are not using some rich txt or some such, as a test, you can copy & paste:

spctl --status

sudo spctl --master-disable

for more information, no matter what you should be able to read the man page, copy and paste:

man spctl | more

please advise
