Hi,

Following the Authorized_User_License_Administrator_Guide at https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/SSLVMB_30.0.0/pdf/Authorized_User_License_Administrator_Guide.pdf

I can install SPSS 30 silently without any issue using:

sudo installer -pkg IBM\ SPSS\ Statistics.pkg -target /

However, when I try to activation the license silently using:

cd /Applications/IBM\ SPSS\ Statistics/Resources/Activation ./licenseactivator [authcode]

This generates the following error:

Activation % ./licenseactivator (our site authorisation code)

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: 'launch path not accessible'

Hi @Paul McGeoghan
