After a long way I could make a simple Cocoa + Java application using
xcode.
After that I make a installer with Package Maker and it's all ok.
The problem now is that when I install my app doesn't work...
I search for an error or a bug but the only thing I've found is that
the owner for the installation directory is 504 504 (user and group)
and not my login user name? After that I changed the owner and my app
work.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening ? How can I change this ?
How is 504 user and group ???
I set the installation to be done with root permission and by that I
must enter my login password to install (this is a feature I'd like to
maintain...)
The real question is which permissions are set in the archice. You can
check this 3 ways:
* You use lsbom in the Terminal on your Archive.bom file within your
.pkg.
* You use Pacifist on your .pkg
* You have a look at the "root" directory you're using for your .pmsp
PackageMaker document.
BTW:
* If you're asking for root authentication and the package should have
your own ownership and group, then it's really a strange distribution.
You can't base your permissions on a casual user because in most cases,
you are user 501 which part of staff (20 IIRC). Ok, I have 2 users on
my machine and so I'm 502. Your program won't work me either.
