When installing QZ Tray on MacOS, it's very difficult to debug installation errors since Apple does not expose any of the errors to the end-user.

Debugging the installer issues are as follows:

  • ✅ Windows: NSIS installer has a detailed log view for debugging installation errors
  • ✅ Linux: Pass DEBUG=1 to installer and a verbose output will be displayed during installation tasks
  • ⛔ MacOS: No easy way to debug the installer

Fixed via #1151. Logs will be located in /tmp/qz-installer.log, or for Company Branded builds, /tmp/<Vendor Abbreviation>-install.log.
