Hi, I am having a problem with using NSFileManager's copyItemAtPath:toPath:error: in OSX 10.6 - this does not cause a problem on 10.7. The code being executed is part of the current version of Sparkle. The following logs show items successfully copied:

copy from: /Volumes/E010E195-C798-4CF5-9D87-F29B33E4481F/.com.apple.timemachine.supported to: /Users/gideon/Library/Application Support/NovaMind 5/NovaMind 5 5.3.0/.com.apple.timemachine.supported

Then it gets to this one:
copy from: /Volumes/E010E195-C798-4CF5-9D87-F29B33E4481F/NovaMind5.app to: /Users/gideon/Library/Application Support/NovaMind 5/NovaMind 5 5.3.0/NovaMind5.app

which fails with this error:
Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=7 UserInfo=0x11bdc61f0 "The operation couldn’t be completed. Argument list too long"


I have used previous versions of Sparkle with no issues, and have not changed my method of producing the disk image that is being installed. I'm not clear as to what the argument list is that could be too long.

Any suggestions as to what could be going wrong?


TIA

Gideon
