## Report a Dgraph Bug

### What version of Dgraph are you using?

> **v21.03.0**
>
> ```auto
> $ dgraph version
>  
> Don't work as nothing gets installed
> 
> ```

### Have you tried reproducing the issue with the latest release?

Yes

### What is the hardware spec (RAM, OS)?

MacOs

### Steps to reproduce the issue (command/config used to run Dgraph).

Try to install latest release on MacOs

### Expected behaviour and actual result.

I expect installation to work.  
Instead I get this error :

```auto
Latest release version is v21.03.0.
Downloading checksum file for v21.03.0 build.
####################################################################################################################################################################################################################################### 100.0%
Download complete.
There was some problem while installing Dgraph. Please share the output of this script with us on http://discuss.hypermode.com so that we can resolve the issue for you.

```

Investigating a bit show that `/tmp/dgraph-checksum-darwin-amd64.sha256` is at fault, and only contains this string: `Not Found`

### Possible fix

It seems that MacOs binaries were not published with last release release:  
[Release Dgraph v21.03.0 - Resilient Rocket · dgraph-io/dgraph · GitHub](https://github.com/dgraph-io/dgraph/releases/tag/v21.03.0)

Only linux binaries are available.

> Hey folks, We have decided to drop Windows and Mac support from Dgraph’s official releases. It was a hard decision that we did not want to make over the years, but both of these platforms require engineering efforts to maintain while only being used by 1.6% of our user base. We did the calculations based on our anonymous telemetry. Windows constitutes 1% usage, and Mac constitutes about 0.6% usage. This change would also allow us to use advanced Linux techniques like punching file holes for be…

Thank you for the pointers!

I suspected that support was dropped, but since it wasn’t mentioned in the changelog I had doubts.

You may want to add a line about it there.

I was planning on using it on my mac for development, I guess I’ll use the previous compatible version.

Thank you for your support, I hope I’ll enjoy Dgraph !

When I run `wget https://github.com/dgraph-io/dgraph/raw/master/contrib/config/docker/docker-compose.yml && docker-compose up` I’m seeing:

alpha\_1 | Dgraph version : v20.11.0  
alpha\_1 | Dgraph codename : tchalla

Is that right?
