I have upgraded to Monterey in my Macmini
but from my terminal it picks
wdcdtgmobile-JSS1666:~ wdcdtgmobile$ sw_vers
ProductName: Mac OS X
ProductVersion: 10.16
BuildVersion: 21E258
so whenever i build something using xcode or so i get this error
Executable requires at least macOS 12.0, but is being run on macOS 10.16, and so is exiting.
Please help
I had the same problem recently and discovered that I had a flag enabled in my zsh config called:
export SYSTEM_VERSION_COMPAT=1
I fixed it by commenting out the above line and running the below in your terminal:
SYSTEM_VERSION_COMPAT=0

The 21E258 build version is for macOS 12.3.1 and on my 2021 MBP M1 Pro, sw_vers reports the product version as 12.3.1 too. Note that on macOS Monterey, sw_vers does not report ProductName as Mac OS X, but rather as macOS.
Is that an Apple executable, or third-party application that is reporting this information?
Does safe-boot help?
AFAIR after macOS Catalina 10.15 some code had a 10.16 placeholder that became macOS 11 BigSur. Maybe that is still in some cache in your system?
thanks again,
I re-installed everything using recovery. mode - but still the same. Has not resolved. Any other thoughts please.
