Getting the following error message when trying to install Marvin on Mac OS mountain lion...


"ChemAxon Marvin Beans Installer" is damaged and can't be opened.  You should eject the disk image.

Other users have already reported that they can not start the Marvin Beans installer under Mac OS X Mountain Lion.


We are investigating the issue.


I recommend to use the cross-platform version of the installer (marvinbeans-VERSION.zip).

After some research, it seems that this problem appears with non-ChemAxon installers too.


It seems that the operating system blocks launching of applications from out of the Apple store.

Please check your Security settings in Mountain Lion.


Go to Apple > System Preferences > Security & Privacty.


In the General section check the setting of Allow application downloaded from:


You can choose from 3 options:



Generally, the default value is the second. You have to set it to Anywhere to allow installer from any vendor (like ChemAxon).


Please modify your Security settings then download Marvin Beans installer again and launch it.
Do this help?

Thanks.


I'm familiar with GateKeeper on Mountain Lion, after having installed a number of different applications from "unidentified developers."  Usually a ctrl+click >  open will allow installation after being prompted by a warning, so the warning that the installer was damaged was new to me and quite surprising to see.


 Regardless, the software has now been successfully installed.  Thanks so much for your help.  It may benefit others to make a note on the download page for users of Mountain Lion.

I get exactly the same message regardless what I alter in the system preferences.


I have OsX 10.8.2

... but changing the Gatekeeper setting to "Everywhere" does the trick. 


Remember to set it back after installing!
