Installing FICO® Xpress on macOS®

While FICO® Xpress Insight is not supported on macOS®, you can use FICO Xpress Workbench and the Xpress Insight Developer Kit to publish apps and remotely debug scenarios with Xpress Insight hosted on another platform.
  1. Obtain the Xpress macOS software installer.
  2. Mount the setup.dmg file.
  3. In the Installer window, drag the Xpress icon to the Applications folder.
    Xpress and Xpress Workbench are installed in the Applications folder.
  4. Your license file xpauth.xpr must be added to an editable folder. Create a new folder in <HOME>/Documents/ named FICO Xpress Config and copy the license to this folder.
  5. Download the Xpress Insight Developer Kit ZIP file.
  6. Remove the quarantine attribute caused by download: xattr -d com.apple.quarantine "<path-to-zip-file>"
  7. Unzip the folder in your desired directory.
  8. In your ~/.bash_profile, add this line: export MOSEL_DSO= <path-to-DSO-folder
    • If you already have a MOSEL_DSO definition in this script, add the path to the DSO folder at the top of the list of folders in the variable, or replace a previous developer kit location if you are doing an upgrade.
    • The export command must be in the ~/.bash_profile even if your OS uses zsh shell instead, as Workbench uses the bash shell on all platforms.
