VIPM, MacOS, LabVIEW 2021 - Can't install some packages

[Thomas_robertson]

VIPM wasn't working with LabVIEW 2021 MacOS, but someone in my company saw that we need to execute:

sudo chmod -R 777 "/Applications/National Instruments/LabVIEW 2021"

After that, most packages where able to be installed via VIPM.  However a few packages had issues.   For instance, MGI Panel Manager as is shown in this screenshot.  Any suggestions?

Apart from verifying that the TCP settings were lined up in VIPM and LV,

I added the following to the above and it worked for 2021, 2022, & 2023 on x86_64 and Apple Silicon (M1 Pro):

sudo chgrp staff /Applications/National\ Instruments/LabVIEW\ 2021\ 64-bit

sudo chgrp staff /Applications/National\ Instruments/LabVIEW\ 2021\ 64-bit/{vi.lib,vi.lib/addons,vi.lib/_probes,help,examples,examples/exbins,project,project/errors,resource/Framework/Providers,resource/dialog/QuickDrop/plugins,templates,ProjectTemplates,ProjectTemplates/MetaData,ProjectTemplates/Source}

sudo chgrp staff /Applications/National\ Instruments/LabVIEW\ 2021\ 64-bit/menus/Categories/Computer

sudo chmod g+w /Applications/National\ Instruments/LabVIEW\ 2021\ 64-bit/{vi.lib,vi.lib/addons,vi.lib/_probes,help,examples,examples/exbins,project,project/errors,resource/Framework/Providers,resource/dialog/QuickDrop/plugins,templates,ProjectTemplates,ProjectTemplates/MetaData,ProjectTemplates/Source}

NB: For me, 

sudo chgrp staff /Applications/National\ Instruments/LabVIEW\ 2021\ 64-bit/menus

as recommended in the below reference fails, throwing an Error Code 8 which itself suggests the folder path above "...menus/Categories/Computer" as a solution.
