I get the following error when trying to install a meta-package on
10.2 that was created (and works fine) on 10.3.
"You are not allowed to install the software in the default location
on the disk 'Macintosh HD.' Check with the administrator of your
computer."
The error occurs after the destination drive is chosen (the packages
require root volume) and Continue is clicked. I am logged in as the
admin user when trying to do the install.
Any ideas?
Other idea:
- is there any file or folder installed in /Applications, /Library?
If the answer is yes, do you ask for root or admin authentication and
are the permissions correct for those folders and files?
I'm installing a folder and subsequent app into /Applications. I do
ask for admin authentication. Not root.
Are you referring to the folders and files on the that make up the
various packages of the meta-package? If so, I'll check the
permissions on these and let you know.
No, I was just referring to the permissions on the /Applications folder
in your pax archive.
I've seen installations failed because the permissions were not
root:admin 775 on this folder.
