ISSUE

I tried to install Panther Analysis Tool (PAT) on macOS and could not get it to work. How do I troubleshoot?

RESOLUTION

If you did not install Python via Homebrew, this may lead to the macOS-installed Python not correctly pathing to the directory with panther_analysis_tool. Follow these steps to troubleshoot:

Run brew install python3
Run brew postinstall python3
Restart the terminal
Run pip3 install panther_analysis_tool

CAUSE

The install may not work as expected if you did not install Python via Homebrew.
