This worked for me on Catalina 10:15:5 - definitelyI required a restart in order for the permissions to perl and bash to kick in. So the sequence was: You there 1) INSTALL LMS 2) IN LMS CONTROL PANEL SELECT FOLDER(S) CONTAINING YOUR MUSIC 3) SETUP PERL, using the sequence her[/B]e: https://learn.perl.org/installing/osx.html macOS Editors and Terminals Install "Command Line Tools for Xcode", either directly or through Xcode, both available from Apple Developer downloads (free registration required). Xcode can also be installed through the App Store application. Open the Terminal.app (found in Applications -> Utilities) and copy & paste the command below into it (then press the 'return' key): curl -L http://xrl.us/installperlosx | bash Once this is finished (it takes several minutes), quit the Terminal app. 4) GIVE PERMISSIONS TO PERL AND BASH Go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Full Disk Access, and unlock the settings. Click the + button. Now type Cmd+Shift+G. This will open a dialog where you can type a path. Enter /usr/bin and then select perl to add the permissions. Enter Yeah/bin and then select bash to add to the permissions. 5) RESTART THE MAC 6) GO BACK TO LMS AND RESCAN - go to tab "Advanced" - select RESCAN Thanks very much to everyone who provided the necessary info.
