Minimserver as an installed application on mac? - jjh2204 - 08-02-2024 21:06
Hopefully this will be the last time i need to ask for help!
Is there anyway to install the miniserver on the mac as an application? it runs as a disk image and therefore you cant eject the disk image from the home screen as it stops the server as well.
probably a simple fix?

You need to follow all the instructions in this section exactly as shown, including step 5 (drag the MinimServer application to the Applications folder and run it from there).

Hi Simon, that still leaves the application running as a disk image on the desktop?
The servier icon in the applications folder is showing as an alias

See step 5 of the instructions. It sounds like you have dragged the .dmg file from the Downloads folder into the Applications folder instead of opening the .dmg file and dragging the MinimServer application.
