My customer installed two different apps on his Mac machine. These two apps are using ContentFilter extensions. One of the app is mine and another app is different vendor. If my customer enabled both ContentFilter extensions then he fails to connect immediately to its required destination to allow it to run. If one of the ContentFilter extension is disabled then there is no issue.

Is it not possible to run two different ContentFilter extensions on same Mac machine? Is there any way to fix these type of issues?

Thank You Nagendra R

There’s no fundamental reason why two content filter extensions should conflict. Having said that, such conflicts are common for various reasons. I have two suggestions for you:

Create a dummy content filter and test it against your content filter. If that fails, you can start debugging it all by yourself. OTOH, if it works…
Reach out to the other vendor to see if you can work out the conflict.
