-------------------------------------
Summary: Apache Flex Installer Fails to Launch on OS X 10.12 Sierra
Key: FLEX-35311
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-35311
Project: Apache Flex
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Installer
Affects Versions: Install Apache Flex 3.2
Environment: OS X Sierra 10.12 (any version) that is a fresh install
not an upgrade from a previous OS version such as 10.11
Reporter: Quinn Buchanan
Launching of the Apache Flex Installer fails when clicking on the icon in
Finder. The application attempts to launch then silently fails. However you
can launch the application from the command prompt, at which point the launcher
patches itself to the 64bit version and then runs correctly there after:

The issue appears to be with a 32bit OS X flex launcher being included. Again,
once the launcher is updated, see above -> copying new 64bit launcher from
/Library/Frameworks/Adobe.... , everything works correctly from then on.
Recommend updating the AIr version used to build the application to a more
modern version with a 64bit launcher.
